Niagara Foundation and Terry Spencer Hesser's Industrial Film Background
The hosts analyze the background of director Terry Spencer Hesser and her ties to the Gulen-funded Niagara Foundation. Curry notes that Hesser's career is rooted in corporate industrial films for companies like McDonald's and Waste Management, suggesting her documentary is a paid promotional tool. They critique the film's portrayal of Gulen as a monkish, spiritual figure compared to Rumi, despite his movement's political influence and controversial charter schools.
