#17: Christopher Hooton (The Independent)

Christopher and I discuss The Independent's shift online, representation, tokenism and crowbarred politics in film and whether people really want a peek 'behind the curtain'. Plus: I play devil's advocate on clickbait journalism and get exasperated with the MCU, Chris explains why he finds 'problematic' problematic, and we discuss the iPad impact on writing of all kinds. Apologies for the crackles on this episode. // Contact the pod: readslikeafour@gmail.com // Instagram + Twitter: @readslikeafour
