In this episode of Filtered with TJ Walker, we examine five stories that reveal how media, power, fear, and attention are reshaping American life.
We explore the shutdown of a historic local newspaper, growing concerns about self-censorship at national news organizations, a rare legal victory for free speech on campus, the deadly consequences of aggressive immigration enforcement, and a president’s assertion that his authority is limited only by personal morality.
We close with research-backed insight into why constant phone use is eroding creativity—and how reclaiming your attention may be a form of resistance.
This episode connects journalism, civil liberties, leadership, and mental health into one clear picture: when systems fail, individuals must think more clearly than ever.
