In this episode Beth and Kelly discuss the documentary "Trumping
Democracy: Real Money, Fake News, Your Data." In this boring,
yet terrifying documentary (It's like doing your taxes!) it traces
how reclusive billionaire Robert Mercer - and his gang of evil
masterminds - Steve Bannon, Kellyanne Conway, and David Bossie used
Breitbart and another company controlled by Mercer - Cambridge
Analytica - to find voters for Trump - and then target them with
fake news by using "dark posts" on facebook.
Yes, this is all real. Yes, it does seem like a plot from
Scooby Doo, just minus the "pesky kids" that save the day.
