It’s so easy to feel overwhelmed by the current media environment. This week on the new, hourlong Anchor Watch, Bobby Jones welcomes Juliet Jeske, host of Decoding Fox News, for a conversation about how media shapes not just what we know, but how we think.
Juliet has watched thousands of hours of Fox News (and she’s still lived to tell about it), so she knows all the tactics the network and other right-wing outlets use to distort reality and fuel division.
Juliet and Bobby discuss the deeper consequences of unchecked media power — how it impacts elections, public trust, and even personal relationships. She opens up about the personal toll of spending her days immersed in misinformation, but she talks about how she maintains her own sense of clarity and purpose amid the noise.
Bobby also draws connections between the dangers of media manipulation and the week’s biggest stories. He dives into this new deadline Trump has given Russia for a ceasefire in Ukraine and the Israeli Knesset's vote to annex the West Bank. Bobby breaks down why the U.N. sees Israeli settlements in the West Bank and Gaza as illegal under international law, and he shares his thoughts on a powerful video from actor Mandy Patinkin. In it, Patinkin urges Jewish people worldwide to consider how actions taken in the name of Judaism in Gaza might actually be putting Jewish safety at risk.
