FDL’S BOOK SALON: Medium Blue: The Politics of MSNBC. “Barack Obama wasn’t the only beneficiary of the calamitous Bush years. Something of an industry punchline since its formation in 1996, MSNBC suddenly gained a comprehensible voice during the era, while pinning its hopes upon the inspiring senator from Illinois. Obama’s victory spelled success for the network, which saw a sizable ratings increase and began positioning itself as a viable alternative to the right-wing propaganda of Fox News. However, a close inspection of the station’s programming and an analysis of their celebrity hosts generate troubling questions about the state of the American media.” Chat with Michael Arria about his new book, hosted by our friend Steve Horn. 5pm ET, 2pmPT.
FDL’S MOVIE NIGHT MONDAY: Matthew O’Hanlon: A Creative Journey. Watch the film here (7:40 minutes), then join host Lisa Derrick and Writer/Director Jose Ho-Guanipa for the discussion, 8pm ET, 5pm PT Monday.
