About this episode
What is happening to the media?! Don Lemon sits down with journalist and founder of The Status newsletter, Oliver Darcy, to unpack the chaos. From the FCC greenlighting the Skydance-Paramount merger to the sudden cancellation of major voices like Stephen Colbert, it's starting to feel like media is folding under political pressure. Is this the Trump effect? Are networks bowing to MAGA threats in advance? And what does this mean for the future of journalism and democracy? Let's break it all down.
