Ask Ezra Anything

The Gray Area with Sean Illing

It’s here. The final AMA of 2019. Among the questions you asked:

- If you believe that changing someone's mind about a topic, any topic is difficult, how do you function as a journalist?

- What’s your opinion on capitalism?

- What have you learned about yourself since being a dad that has surprised you the most?

- You talk a lot about polarization. But it seems your audience leans liberal. So how do you reconcile that?

- Do you believe in free will?

- What’s your take on the left/liberal divide?

- Red wine or white wine?

- We know 2020 will come down to a small collection of swing states. Shouldn’t the Democrats just run whichever candidate will be strongest in those states?

- What’s with Vox and NBER papers?

- What would get journalists to leave Twitter?

- What happens if Trump loses the election but refuses to leave office?


All this, plus you get to hear from the mysterious Jeff Geld…
