Description
From prisons to protests, immigration to the environment, Peabody Award-winning Reveal goes deep into the pressing issues of our times. The Atlantic says “the experience of each episode is akin to a spoonful of sugar, even when it’s telling a story about Richard Spencer’s cotton farms or a man’s final days as a heroin addict.” Reveal is a project of The Center for Investigative Reporting and is co-produced with PRX. The show is hosted by Al Letson and partners with reporters and newsrooms around the world, including The Washington Post, ProPublica, APM, The Marshall Project and The Investigative Fund. Reveal is a Pulitzer Prize finalist and has won many broadcast journalism awards, including a duPont and three national Emmys.

interesting epi, although towwards the end when interviewing the redneck, Reveal loses some credibility with me. Granted this redneck, Keabler I think his name is, does go too far on the Muslims taking over our schools conspiracy, it is in fact something that is happening and I've witnessed it first hand. When looking at thebexyreme side of Islam, certain tactics rely on the long game. My sister in Law went through this with her daughter. One day her daughter came home from school asking her mom to help on her history homework. So as she was helping and going through her book she noticed a lot of inaccuracies, most continents and countries were renamed with Muslim in from of their names, reciting the Muslim prayer excepting Islam was in the book and many other instances that were not true and pitting Islam as the victors and in the right. She decided to look into it and they tried to get her to stop bit she didn't and took it further and was able to get on the school board that decides what books are taught in her child's district. Come to find out the publisher of this history book is a Muslim family owned business that pushed the Islam narrative very heavily. Thankfully she was able to get that book not only taken out of her kids school district but was able to get that and many other books published by this company out of school curriculum.

TheRealMrPink Interesting podcast!
Mikey Scallywags
are you fucking joking, all those so called violations seem so petty, pee on the toilet seat at a children's home, wow crazy. I'm done with reveal, trying to make a mountain where there is none
Katherine White
ugh the British guy is so smarmy and rehearsed
niamh
Katherine White im from the uk didnt read him like that at all he came across as genuine and passionate about his investigation to me
Carolyn Hile
I understand the frustration. I wish we could limit where our tax dollars go, i.e. Planned Parenthood
Angela Howard-Gibbs
21 Million in tax payer dollars and yet we can't get Reparations!

this story suddenly has new weight in the midst of the pay-to-play college admissions scandal right now.
Rebecca MA
"She decided to do what makes her happy." That's not too much to ask but unfortunately it is so difficult for so many people

so stupid, hillary makes enough excuses for herself, unsubscribing from you libtards
Tess Alexa
You have seen nothing. Understand, nothing. I can only hope that if you work in these fields that the damage you've done is some day healed.
Tess Alexa
Let me be clear. As a victim of abuse who nobody believed. Who everyone told me my mother wasn't abusive. You are so very wrong and your attitude causes very real harm. This is a recipe for disaster.
Tess Alexa
Parental alienation is absolute bullshit. This actually makes me so viciously angry. If I was ever to get my hands on these judges they would end up seriously hurt.
Strang3rDang3r
Heather Ramsey it shouldn't be up to a bureaucrat to decide if a teenager is lying about abuse. it's clear that family courts have wayyyyy too much power that it allows personal biases to affect decisions. obviously PA exists, but the government should have as little say as possible when it comes to taking sides in an ending marriage.
Tess Alexa
Tess Alexa Then you have seen and know nothing. I sincerely hope that if you work in this field the damage you've caused is healed some day.
Jodi Bishop-Phipps
Quite possibly the best report I have listened to by Reveal - and you have had a number of good ones. This crazy theory appears to have emotional injured so many children and families. this is so wrong.
Heather Ramsey
Jodi Bishop-Phipps Excellent episode, subscribed after listening on local public radio station.
InsufferableInsanity
this is the first episode where I felt star-struck the entire time, the Globes reporting in this was phenomenal.

This episode rambles and is very poorly told. Had to turn it off.

sometimes I wish after the civil war we brought all slaves North and let the south leave the union. To this day they produce little, are ranked the lowest in most categories and are the poorest but they love to keep hate alive. If we let the south leave today they'd be bankrupt in 10 years. It's no wonder the north has all the best universities, tech, engineering, arts, media, science, real estate, high paying jobs. the north pays the nation's bills, the south is a welfare state

Wow, where are these people from??? NO it was all BAD. No half, no maybe, no nothing. geez people grow some humanity and perspective 3 inches from your own face.
