The News You’re Not Getting (and Why) with Amy Goodman
5/6/20261 hr 31 min
As consolidation, layoffs, and deference to power continue to hollow out the corporate media, Jon is joined by Amy Goodman, host and executive producer of “Democracy Now!” and subject of the new documentary "STEAL THIS STORY, PLEASE!" Together, they examine which stories get told and why, discuss the bargain the media makes in trading truth for access, and explore the power ordinary people still possess to organize and fight back — even as attacks on our democracy intensify. Plus, Jon talks Fetterman, Trump nicknames and favorite emojis! This episode is brought to you by: GROUND NEWS - Go to https://groundnews.com/stewart to see all sides of every story.

He asks Copilot in Microsoft Excel to look at his sales and costs to help him see if he can afford it. Copilot shows Hank where the money's going and which little extras make the dollar slice work.
