Mehdi Hasan on the Risk of the Media Normalizing Trump's Fascism & Dangers of TikTok Ban

Journalist Mehdi Hasan warns U.S. media coverage of the 2024 election is largely unable to capture the threat to democracy posed by Donald Trump and the modern Republican Party. We need to speak very clearly about what that fascist threat is," says Hasan, who warns media outlets cannot normalize his extremism and racism and bigotry," because the right to free press itself could be under threat if he regains power. One of our two major parties has been fully radicalized and is now in bed with white supremacists. ... Let's be plain about that."
