The Daily Digest: Warning: Confronting Content

A segment from the new nature documentary series Our Planet is being accused of “tragedy porn” and fake news, used to manipulate people's emotions about climate change. Were the disturbing scenes featured in the documentary emotional manipulation at its worst? We also speak to Yasmin Rasyid, the Founder and President of EcoKnights to hear her thoughts on this.
