What a disappointment

“I listened on the rec of a different podcaster I like. But despite some really great episodes (1000 Dolls, Miracle, etc), Ronson “disappears” critical but inconvenient facts. Which makes me question whether those great episodes are trustworthy at all!
Like: nowhere in the episode about the Pulse nightclub shooting does he say that it was (a) carried out by a jihadist and (b) was not targeted specifically at the LGBT community (the shooter had no idea it was a gay club; he was trying to kill as many young americans as he could). This undermines the whole rationale for why the advocacy group thought the response should be to partner with schools.
This kind of omission / obfuscation happened so often throughout many episodes that I had to stop listening because I lost trust in Ronson’s ability to tell a complete story. He’s clearly an activist, not a journalist - as long as you’re eyes wide open on that, listen away.”

“Ronson's approach is open-hearted, respectful, and often funny as well. He provides useful vignettes that explain how we got here, and glimmer of a way to get back to sanity again.”Read full review »

“Jon Ronson has an extraordinary way of connecting the dots, and his interviews are done with the deft and even hand of a remarkably skilled, curious and intelligent man. I would nominate him as the most important and accessible journalist on the topic of conspiracy theories today.”

“Came here from Knowledge Fight, but the both sides-ism in Ep. 3 is ridiculous. Not going any farther.”
