Ain't No Riot Like a Unicorn Riot: Why Independent Media Matters Now More than Ever

Trickle-Down Socialism

Pat interviews one of the co-founders of a brave independent media outlet named Unicorn Riot https://unicornriot.ninja/ who explains why independent media matters, what being independent allows them to cover that corporate media is unable to cover, and a number of interesting stories from covering dangerous stories like the protests to block the Dakota Access Pipeline and some of the more unstable protests across the US. The interview explains what US viewers and readers miss out on when they rely on corporate media, how we can support independent media, and why the future looks bright for outfits like Unicorn Riot in terms of generating enough funding to run a robust reporting operation.
