Media Sensationalism and Global Tensions

Adam and Drew open the show discussing how journalists are somewhat shirking their responsibilities when it comes to a fair and balanced reporting of the news given the vast broadcasting power they have been given. For instance, how much time was given to the news last week that Lena Dunham overheard some airline employees talking about transgender people, as opposed to the limited amount of coverage given to the revelation that North Korea has miniaturized their nuclear weapons into a form that fits onto an ICBM. They also discuss the 'best diet article Drew has ever read' and take some listener phone calls.
