A story without a hero

“This podcast states early on that it’s a story without a hero, but then continues to make a sympathetic appeal for the white supremacists at the heart of the story. It seems like the team did not know how to craft the narrative without giving the listener someone to empathize for, the result is so Tone deaf it’s unbelievable. Oh cool a podcast normalizing the alt-right and treating a white power separatist as heroic and misunderstood? Hard pass. Not to mention that if this story had happened and at the center was a person of color, this would be a story about “terrorism” and not one about a “heroic” stand off between a whites supremacist and the FBI. This podcast leaves me feeling disheartened and ashamed. Stories told like this feed into a history of narratives that makes icons out of white terrorists. I truly hope they reevaluate the way in which they are telling this story. I’m done tuning in to a podcast that upholds white supremacist culture.”

“I’ve been an obsessive fan of Slate’s political gabfest since 2008, mostly because of Emily Bazelon’s thoughtful legal expertise and her narrative skill. She brings all that and more to this podcast. Can’t wait for the next ep.”

“It’s disheartening that most of these “journalists” of podcasts are incapable of speaking without using “like” and “whatever” in between every word. How can you be a journalist and not speak correctly or use proper grammar?”

“It is an odd time in American history to create a podcast sympathetic to white supremacists.”
