Matt Bilinsky

Does the media tell you the truth? Can you tell when the media is manipulating you and have journalists stopped asking the difficult questions? Today on the Spiritual Spiral, I welcome Los Angeles tech & media lawyer, Matt Bilinsky, to the show. While Matt is a successful attorney in LA, I discovered Matt on Twitter and IG where he has grown a following breaking down news stories and bringing his nuanced perspective to the world. Matt is using social media to go beneath the surface to try and offer a fresh perspective that counters the narrative that is being pushed by the media. Matt and I talk about the media landscape and how social media and the 24/7 news cycle may impact the way we receive the news. We discuss the pandemic, the impact it's having on our culture and how we're living in a world where if you question the narrative, then the powers-to-be want you silenced. I also ask Matt about this idea of being an "influencer" and we talk about the good and bad of social media and why I think it's causing more disruption than ever before.
