Michael sits down with political analyst Mark Halperin to unpack new CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss’s claim that the far left destroyed America’s center-left, and what that and the rest of her opinions and experiences mean for that company moving forward. Halperin notes that Weiss is what big journalism needs now: He and Michael explore how media bias, polarization, and public perception are reshaping U.S. politics. They also also touch on the government shutdown, Russia’s latest moves, and the uncertain economy ahead. A smart, spirited conversation about the future of the media, politics, and the American middle. Original air date 8 October 2025. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
