The Tara Show

A high-octane episode that tracks how a violent act becomes a political script — from social feeds that lionize the shooter to real-world death lists and threats aimed at public figures. We unpack the case, the social-media reaction that tried to recast the murderer as a romantic hero, and the chilling effect on elected officials and campus employees now living under threats. Expect brisk, forensic breakdowns of how narratives are manufactured, why dehumanizing rhetoric escalates to violence, and what it means when newsrooms and networks race to reshape the story. This episode is for listeners who want straight, unsentimental analysis of political rage and the real people who become targets.
