Episode Synopsis
THIS WEEK...
A recently released study from USC took a close and calculated look at the seemingly endless backlash that Star Wars: The Last Jedi has been receiving on social media. For the past year The Last Jedi has been perceived as a divisive film, but what if that divisiveness was engineered by trolls, political activists and even...Russian bots? JP and Father Chuck take a close look at the study and share their thoughts.
