Media's Role in Disqualifying Candidates and Class Divisions
The hosts and Matt Taibbi discuss how the media historically "disqualified" candidates like Howard Dean and Gary Hart for minor gaffes or scandals. Taibbi reflects on the class divisions between "sanctimoniously smug" coastal elites and "flyover America." The hosts note that No Agenda listeners were not surprised by the Trump phenomenon because they track these cultural shifts.
