Episode notes
Steven Spielberg’s new film may be about conspiracies, coverups, and car chases, but it all hinges around the concept of journalism you can trust…so who better to join us than our favorite trusted journalist (and movie podcaster, with UNCLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER), NYT columnist Jamelle Bouie! We put DISCLOSURE DAY under the microscope, then talk about some directors whose filmographies reveal hidden secrets.
