MSNBC may have been rebranded as MS Now, but its top talent isn’t going anywhere as Rachel Maddow created a new podcast with the network.
Coming next month, “Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order” will be a six-episode series that “spotlights the illegal incarceration of immigrants and American citizens during World War II.”
“The series highlights the government officials who fueled the policy with lies and racial stereotypes, as well as the desperate internal struggle to try to stop the plan before it could take effect,” according to Monday’s announcement. “Listeners will hear first-hand accounts of a community terrorized in the streets, forced from their homes by the U.S. government and sent to isolated, hastily constructed detention camps. »
The network continued: “Plus, the clandestine destruction of government documents, burned to conceal the illegal basis of the policy – and an explosive discovery in an unlikely place that would ultimately reveal everything. As hastily constructed mass detention camps are once again built across America, ‘Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order’ tells the explosive story of how the country pledged, during the Reagan era, never to pursue such policies again.”
“Burn Order” marks Maddow’s fifth podcast with the media company, while MS Now also features audio projects such as “The Best People with Nicolle Wallace,” “Why Is This Happening?” The Chris Hayes Podcast,” “The Blueprint with Jen Psaki,” “Main Justice with Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord,” “Into America with Trymaine Lee,” and “Velshi Banned Book Club.”
“Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order” debuts December 1.
