On this episode of Normally, Mary Katharine Ham and Karol Markowicz break down a week of headlines where the news—and the media response to it—got especially strange. They start with the shocking arrest of two men accused of throwing improvised explosive devices near Gracie Mansion in New York City. The conversation dives into how major outlets framed the story, why the media narrative quickly shifted toward claims of “Islamophobia,” and what the incident reveals about the broader problem of political violence and media credibility.
