Dan Proft, the Chicago Morning Answer radio show host, discussed how technology and online communities have changed the political sector.
“I don’t think anythings changed, it’s just in terms of the technological tools, we have the opportunity to do more nefarious things more quietly,” Proft told host Jansons or Weiss on the Lake Forest podcast. “Like we’ve seen with the Twitter files, or the collusion with Big Government and Big Tech to censor people or take them offline and so forth.”
“I think it’s better because it is more diffused, more fragmented, because more voices are heard,” Proft said. “You can do a podcast and have more viewership or readership than the local television station.”
