Ana Kasparian: Independent and Unaligned | Doomscroll

My guest is Ana Kasparian, a host and executive producer of ‪@TheYoungTurks‬. Part 2:   / doomscroll-ana-136323054   We discuss her political journey from progressive to "independent and unaligned". Last year, Kasparian’s commentary took an editorial turn away from left echo-chambers and towards a generalized populism. We pay respect to the political genius and lasting influence of Michael Brooks.   / joshuacitarella   Ana Kasparian is an American political commentator, producer, and journalist best known as a host and executive producer at The Young Turks.
