This week on CounterSpin: We revisit the conversation we had in August 2017 in the wake of the Unite the Right march in Charlottesville, Virginia. Writer and podcaster Adam Johnson had thoughts about the way so-called “mainstream” news media responded to a straight-up celebration of white supremacy. We talked about that in July 2018 with Jacinta Gonzalez, senior campaign organizer at Mijente. Transcript: ‘We Point to the Need to Decriminalize Migration’The past is never dead, it’s not even past: This week on CounterSpin. Plus Janine Jackson takes a quick look at some recent press about Chris Matthews’ “morning after,” the New York Times‘ promoting white resentment, and Israel’s assassination of journalists.
