Roseanne’s America, Mindless media parrots, Shocking animated drone data

On this episode of Breaking the Set, Abby Martin talks to Wesley Grubbs, data visualizer at Pitch Interactive, about his project that displays shocking data on Pakistan drone strikes using dynamic interactive graphics. Abby then exposes the mindless media parrots that repeat generic scripts with zero questioning, and pass it off as news. BTS wraps up the show with an interview with comedian, actress and former US presidential candidate Roseanne Barr about her groundbreaking television show, presidential run, sexism, classism and resistance in America.
