WNYC’s On the Media<\/a> stands out among media-analysis podcasts. Its latest program, “Russia’s War<\/a>,” focuses entirely on Russia and the war in Ukraine, and it is excellent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All three segments — on the crackdown on Russian independent media<\/a>, “info ops<\/a>” (information warfare), and one person’s (journalist Anastasiia Carrier’s) experience unlearning Kremlin narratives<\/a> — are well worth listening to. The latter sounds a lot like the kinds of things people go through when they leave “cults” (religious or political), so there are even lessons here for how to deal with family members you may have lost to QAnon, MAGAworld, and their cousins in other countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full 52-minute podcast can be heard here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, they have just added an additional 15-minute segment on Ukrainian media called “Big Tech vs. Ukraine’s Local Media<\/a>,” which examines how Facebook\/Meta and Google\/Alphabet (including YouTube) have, contrary to popular belief, been supporting<\/em> Russian state media at the expense of independent Ukrainian media. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(You can support independent Ukrainian media by following, and donating to, Kyiv Independent<\/em><\/a>, Ukrainska Pravda<\/em><\/a>, and Hromadske<\/a><\/em>, among other sources.) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
