​THE 'MAD MEN' OF BIG OIL: Hollywood's role in the story of climate change

​Did you know that the roots of disinformation tactics tie directly to Big Industry’s playbook? Major corporations have been shaping our concepts of social, political, and environmental issues through marketing and PR since the late 1800s.

​Join us for an interactive, comedic, journalism experience spotlighting the hot takes of creatives and journalists combating climate and fossil fuel disinformation.

​Hosted by Amy Westervelt (Executive Editor, Drilled Media) with comedians/writers Josh Gondelman (Last Week Tonight, Desus & Mero) Yamaneika Saunders (Life & Beth, Inside Amy Schumer), and Juan Manuel Benitez (Professor, Journalist)
