Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I don't have much against podcasting as such, except for the fact that it's primarily entertainment, not necessarily educational or informative. If your main goal when listening to them is to learn you would do well to fact check.
My issue here is that this story is not news. It's a fluff opinion piece, one that doesn't say anything that hasn't already been said a dozen times over.
I want to know what's happening in the trial. I don't want to be bogged down with padded out opinion pieces. We're awaiting the ruling from the judge, this article is just a distraction.
Apparently other people want other things… like civil discourse and pertinent analysis. just move along already
Hang on, where have I not been civil? You're ganging up on me and making out like I'm the bad guy, when others among you have been directly insulting towards me.
My comment was valid, there are no new updates here, just needless commentary on what should be obvious. Commentary that a practising lawyer wouldn't normally give, but a podcaster would.
If you want me to move on, then don't reply to me and pull me back into this thread.
Your argument is that a podcaster shouldn't be listened to. We all hear you, and disagree. Please move on.
You're attempting to form a scarecrow argument against me.
Where did I say she shouldn't be listened to? All I said was that she said nothing new.
