    Abusers in Power and Their Impact on Public Issues with Ruth Colker

    Air Dates: February 21-27, 2022 It’s one thing to say that politics has always been a tough business, but it’s another to confront the reality that public insults have become more frequent, more intense, and more personal.  Ruth Colker explains this is not an accident, but often part of intentional efforts to hijack public issues.
