Description

Matt Taibbi is a liberal journalist covering finance, sports, political campaigns, international news, and more, from a subjective– often satirical– style that’s done quite well for him. But as we’ve seen, the Left has now fractured - castigating liberals like Matt who don’t accept their orthodoxy without question. In 2020, Matt announced the majority of his work would no longer be published at Rolling Stone after 15 years with the publication. He planted his flag at Substack to continue journalism independently. In this episode, we discuss what’s left for liberalism and journalism today, plus some stories from his time on presidential campaign trails, and what happened after he reviewed Matt Walsh’s movie “What Is A Woman?”.

Matt Taibbi is an old-school reporter, and one of the very few I actually trust anymore. It doesn't matter that we don't agree on everything; he has integrity, and that's what almost all "reporters" lack these days.

Matt and Glenn Greenwald are amazing journalists. I probably disagree with most of their views, but I can listen and appreciate their opinions, and they listen also. There’s no shouting, or insults, talking over each other.

Taibbi is a man of integrity. There's no higher praise I can give anyone than that.

It’s refreshing to see two people from different ideologies talking about the issues in an informative and civil way. Kudos to Taibbi and Shapiro. Americans are craving this.
