This episode's guest is Michael Ames. He's an investigative reporter and book author based in Brooklyn, NY. After a decade working in media in southern Idaho, Ames moved east and shifted to national issues, writing mostly for @thedailybeast, Harper's and @newsweek magazines. His first book, American Cipher, which he co-authored with former US Army infantryman Matt Farwell, was published by Penguin Press in March. In this interview, Michael set the record straight about this former soldier, along with the manner in which his capture was a pretext for many vested interests. Ames demonstrated a variety of ways in which Bergdahl's exploited public image paralleled the endless war in Afghanistan. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #military #army #war #hostage #seriel #podcast #afghanistan #bowebergdahl #book #books #author #authors #writers #corruption #geopolitics #politics #obama #trump #exploitation #election #vote #propaganda #taliban #pakistan #terrorism #negotiation #whitehouse #potus #media #journalism #fakenews #defense #scandal #cia #interview #lobbyist #lobbyists #embassy #debate #senator #senators #congress #journalist https://www.instagram.com/p/BykRObZAGyy/?igshid=ejwry1saqsbm
