The Outrage Economy: How Media Turns Everything Into a Crisis

Welcome to The Inquiry Theory, where real conversations cut through the noise. In this episode — “The Outrage Economy: How Media Turns Everything Into a Crisis” — we unpack how today’s media landscape profits from fear, outrage, and division. From Trump’s White House “renovation scandal” to the viral reactions over the Charlie Kirk assassination, they explore how context disappears, algorithms amplify emotion, and both political sides feed into a never-ending feedback loop of anger.

Dig into why outrage sells, how social media rewards fear-based narratives, and what happens when people stop questioning their own side. We share unfiltered opinions on free speech, COVID-era control, partisan hypocrisy, and the loss of nuance in modern debate — with humor, whiskey, and a few unexpected tangents about Appalachian folklore and paranormal myths.

Whether you lean left, right, or just want the truth, this episode challenges you to think critically about what you see online — and to stop letting the outrage economy cash in on your emotions.
