Blue Square Alliance Spokesperson (0:00)
Hot take. You can disagree with someone and not hate them. I know really groundbreaking stuff, but lately that line seems blurry because hate is rising across communities in all kinds of ways, and Jewish communities are getting a lot of it right now. You don't have to agree with people, you just have to not be awful. The blue square is a simple way to say, I'm with you and I don't tolerate hate of any kind. Go to bluesquarealliance.org, get a pin, share it and stand up.

The MRC is coming up on 40 years next fall.
Matt Kittle (2:09)
Oh, my goodness. That's about the time. Let's see. I'm trying to put that in perspective. So 40 years this fall. 1986. What?
Tim Graham (2:22)
87. Next year.
Matt Kittle (2:23)
Yeah, next year. I'm sorry. Okay, so. So fall 1987. What was I doing at that time in 1987? I can't discuss that. This is a family show. But anyway, you've been doing it for a long time and you have seen a lot of what the media, corporate media in particular, has dished out in this country, how it has attempted to, and on unfortunately many occasions, shaped culture and society and, and really our flow of information. But now the, the flow of information has changed as well. And so what did we experience once again on Saturday night? Well, shots ringing out at the Washington Hilton Hotel in yet another attempt on President Trump's life, we witnessed again the bitter harvest of political violence, the Trump hating media help. So you were tuned in to watch, to see what the President might have to say about the fake news. And then things really took a turn for the worse very quickly. What went through your mind at that point, Tim?
