Eyes Wide Open

Tune in to Eyes Wide Open for a night of debunking some of the propaganda that just keeps spinning its way along the campaign trail heading into the GOP 2016 Primary! They continue to insist the historic deal to prevent a nuclear weapon capable Iran is somehow going to magically have the effect of helping Iran create a nuclear weapon, which is an outright lie! They lie about climate change.  They lie about gun related crime rates.  They lie about Medicare and their support for maintaining it. They all lie about their own records in the public and/or private sector.  The fact that there are no negative consequences for their lies and the fact that they are able to turn their lies into what their base calls "reality" is evidence that their talking point driven messaging works! How can progressives effectively penetrate the echo-chamber of lies constructed by the right?  Bernie Sanders is one non-GOP candidate who has managed to maintain focus and stay on point throughout.  We will discuss the speech he gave at Liberty University and analyze his strategy, broad appeal and effectiveness in messaging.  Join Michael Handley and Rheana Piegols for all of this and much more tonight on Eyes Wide Open!
