Trump’s Disinformation Campaign
Diane talks to McKay Coppins of The Atlantic about President Trump’s use of disinformation as the 2020 presidential campaign gets underway.
Fred Rogers is portrayed by actor Tom Hanks in the new film, "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood."
A note from Diane about today’s podcast:
Last weekend I went to see the new film, “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.” It’s about an unlikely friendship between Mister Rogers and a jaded magazine writer assigned to profile him — and, I loved it.
But I’m a bit biased. Fred Rogers is a hero to me. And the conversation we had in December 2002 is one of my favorite interviews. It was among the last Fred Rogers ever did – as he died two months later of stomach cancer.
This Thanksgiving, I thought I’d share some of that interview with you … along with an excerpt of a 2017 conversation with Tom Hanks, who masterfully brings Mister Rogers to life in “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.”
I hope you enjoy both of these interviews as much as I did.
