Slow News Day

Welcome to my Patreon! I'm Steve Poikonen, host of Slow News Day and co-host of the Free Assange online vigil series. The US corporate media has become State Television, yet even most independent outlets rely on the official narratives to shape their content.Instead of nonstop coverage of the political horse race, this show calls attention to who bought the horses, and who's rigging the race. My interviews highlight artists, activists, organizers, journalists, and content creators who operate outside the sphere of Mockingbird Media. The live streams cover current events and stories that you won't find on establishment, or the majority of "lefty" or "independent" channels. I invite you to join me as we look at the world as spiritual skeptics with a deep sense of community coupled with a strong distrust of authoritarian regimes.
