The best place to post comments about Media Nation is on Facebook. I publish links to all of my Media Nation content on my public (that is, we don’t have to be “friends”) Facebook feed, which you can find here. For all my misgivings about Facebook, I’ve found that the conversations there are lively and substantive.
If you prefer, you may leave a comment here on any post that catches your interest, although you shouldn’t expect much engagement. (Comments are automatically closed on posts that are more than two weeks old.) Real names, first and last, are strongly encouraged.
I post links to several other social media sites, too. The one I’m most committed to is Bluesky, so that’s another way of engaging with what I write.
Discovered your show, Most excellent talk host, pleasant and so patient with callers, you greet them like friends.Cant get your signal in warmer months, will miss Nightside.
Do look forward to listening every evening. .
Kind regards Dan, You bring so much relaxation to this senior.
I regret that commenting has largely moved to Facebook. Facebook feels very cramped to me, like being in a crowded store, or something — for me, Facebook is not nearly as conducive to composing a response as a blog page is. But I accept that things change.
Get rid of Debbie !
As a retired radio programmer, I appreciate your broad-based view of media, but as a westerner, I have a question: Why does WGBH insist on dropping their “W”? Are they just jealous of the pioneer broadcasters who were granted three-letter call signs, or are they just being cute?
It’s so that the next consultants they hire can tell them to restore the “W.”
I am so devastated about GBH cancelling “Beat the Press”. I loved that show and miss it so much. I think Emily Rooney is the finest of journalists and TV personalities. I loved the panelists, including you Dan, and discussion. SUCH an entertaining show… Such a bad call on WGBH’s part to do this. HOW COULD THEY?? It was the best show on TV.
Dan: Re your Zelensky item: Eto ochen interesno!
Best regards, M. Charles Bakst
If we have to rely on journalists to do our background checks, then I’m surprised we didn’t get something worse than maga. I’m so mad at NYTimes, but I’m seething at my own employees. How in the name of our country, did these politicians think someone else did it? If I don’t hear a reform law passed that ensures me that the people I vote for have been vetted, fact checked, and then start really looking. Don’t pull an old bone out of the trash and tell me it’s Filet Mignon. I feel violent towards all parties and pieces of our government. I’m going to sleep.
