Show Notes:
From algorithmic incentives to progressive posturing, this episode explores how anti-semitism has
become a feature—not a bug—of influencer culture. Zoe Booth speaks with Corey Walker, a Washington, D.C.-based reporter focusing on the Middle East and global terror groups, about audience capture, the anti-Western project of the modern Left, and why Israel represents values worth conserving.
Corey's Piece: “Owned by the Audience”.
