"Fascism Isn't Coming, It's Here": Mehdi Hasan on Trump, Gaza & Leaving MSNBC to Start Zeteo

We speak with journalist Mehdi Hasan of *Zeteo News* about the first 100 days of the second Trump administration, the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza, the suppression of pro-Palestine activism and more. Hasan is a former host for Al Jazeera and MSNBC who started his own news outlet last year. On _Zeteo_’s first anniversary, he describes his frustrations while working for mainstream outlets and says the U.S. media continues to ignore Palestinian voices in coverage about the Middle East.

“You are getting a very one-sided view of the conflict,” Hasan says. “The real tragedy is that the media has been complicit in the Gaza genocide.”
