CNN is suing the White House over Jim Acosta's press credentials and the midterms have put a spotlight on the need for serious election reforms. We discuss media access and how the partisanship around our elections affects the process of winning and losing.  We are so thankful to our wonderful patrons who support the show. If you'd like to join the ranks of our faithful supports and get access to bonus content, visit our Patreon page. Our book, I Think You're Wrong (But I'm Listening), comes out in February! But - you can preorder it now and get access to our Holiday Survival Class on November 20! Thanks to our sponsor, Bombas.
