Have you watched a movie review on YouTube or an album takedown on TikTok? Cultural criticism is available for free everywhere which might explain why publications like the New York Times and Vanity Fair are trimming their staffs of professional reviewers. We talk to pop culture critic Angelica Jade Bastién and music critic Kelefa Sanneh about why traditional criticism should endure, even when everyone has a platform. Where do you turn for reliable reviews?
Guests:
Kelefa Sanneh, staff writer, The New Yorker
Angelica Jade Bastién, critic covering film and pop culture, New York Magazine's Vulture
