In this episode, Host Zack Fink sits down with Skye Ostreicher – “The Political Personality.” Ostreicher is a social media influencer who covers New York’s political world. She stays away from the public policy battles and political street fights that often define our politics in New York and instead focuses on getting to know our political leaders on a more personal level. We discuss the ever-evolving media landscape and how that impacts elections. We delve into the recent Mayoral Primary which saw a relatively unknown Assemblymember from Queens, who carefully choreographed his social media presence, beat a much better-known candidate with a dynastic family name. This episode is a fascinating look at what the future holds and how legacy media is struggling to keep up.
