MisinfoNation: The Lost Left
CNN Senior Correspondent Donie O'Sullivan returns with a new chapter in his Emmy®-nominated investigation into the American political wilderness and those caught up in a maelstrom of misinformation.
In this episode, O'Sullivan meets former "Bernie Bros," whose disillusionment with politics has led them to embrace far-right extremism. Some of them spend most of their waking hours online playing video games, say they feel left behind in the United States, and are now embracing conspiracy theorists, white supremacists, and even Vladimir Putin.
"So much of the hate and extremism we see across American politics today is appealing to and being promoted by young men who, rightly or wrongly, feel aggrieved," said O'Sullivan. "In ‘MisinfoNation: The Lost Left' we begin to explore how political opportunists are using social media to play on these men's insecurities and radicalize them."
O'Sullivan visits a rally of so-called MAGA Communists in Michigan and speaks with 24-year-old Jackson Hinkle, an emerging and charismatic young leader of the movement. He speaks with protestors outside of the Democratic National Convention and joins up with one of Twitch's biggest political stars, Hasan Piker, who is trying to fight online hate and misinformation.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
