  • Bari Weiss, Peter Thiel, and the Billionaire Media Tycoons Clearing the Runway for Authoritarianism
    2026/09/25

    Recorded live Friday September 25, 2026 Julie Roginsky, Michelle Kinney, and Jeff Jarvis break down a brutal week for the free press. Axel Springer chief Matthias Döpfner publicly honored Trump megadonor Peter Thiel in Berlin — with Bari Weiss delivering the tribute — while dismissing his own Politico and Business Insider staffers who objected. Jeff, who's spent real time around Döpfner (at Davos! lol), explains exactly what kind of provocateur he is and why the timing (and his AI ambitions for the newsroom) should worry anyone who reads Politico's Playbook.

    Plus: California AG Rob Bonta signs off on the Paramount–Warner Bros. Discovery merger, and what that means for CNN, HBO, and the studios going forward. And Alex Gibney's nearly three-hour Elon Musk documentary is headed for domestic release next month — while Musk reportedly tries to block the film and choke off its international distribution.

  • Emmys (Matthew Rhys!) Recap, CBS Airs Pentagon Propaganda, Kushner's Secret Putin Deals Exposed, and Sydney Sweeney's New Ad 🥴
    2026/09/19

    This week on Breaking the News, Julie Roginsky, Michelle Kinney, and Jeff Jarvis dig into a stacked week: a surprisingly solid Emmys night, AI's growing shadow over Hollywood and publishing, Sydney Sweeney's sports-betting ad and whether it's actually a shrewd business move, and the slow unraveling of CBS's 60 Minutes under Barry Weiss. And yes, Michelle gushes about Matthew Rhys's three-Emmy sweep, because we love him and always will. They also break down the widely panned Pete Hegseth pilot-rescue interview, the buried New Yorker report on Jared Kushner and Trump-world's business dealings with Putin, and why the New York Times just hired its fourth white guy in a row to cover media. Plus, a preview of the JD Vance Vanity Fair deep dive still to come.
