One Year 1942: The Info Wars of World War II

One Year 1942: The Info Wars of World War II

As we catch our breath over the holidays, enjoy this episode of Slate's One Year podcast. What Next returns next week.

In March 1942, a new nightly radio show hit the American airwaves. The stated goal of Station Debunk was to correct all the lies getting tossed around about America’s involvement in the war. But the real story was a whole lot stranger and more devious than it appeared.

One Year is produced by Evan Chung, Sophie Summergrad, Sam Kim, and Josh Levin.

Derek John is senior supervising producer of narrative podcasts and Merritt Jacob is senior technical director.
