The Media and DC's Dangerous Path of Demonizing, Plus NBC’s Morgan Radford on the Future of News and Her New Novel

Mark Halperin’s reported monologue tackles one of the most urgent questions in American life today: can the country overcome its deepening culture of political dehumanization? In a powerful presentation, Mark examines the rhetoric, tribalism, and condemnation fueling division across both sides of the aisle, while Katie Pavlich weighs in on political violence, media double standards, and what it would actually take to reduce America’s growing culture of outrage.

Plus, NBC’s Morgan Radford joins Mark to discuss her debut novel “Now Then”, exploring love, culture, and self-discovery. They also kick around what young people really want from the media and what’s working in American politics. Covering everything from motherhood to anchoring, Radford offers a fresh perspective on storytelling, trust, and the future of news. And the new “Mark the Mailman” segment, where he answers viewer questions on journalism bias, political rhetoric, and the Trump assassination attempt.
