Video: Michael Hastings: One of the last real journalists

Michael Hastings was a bold, true journalist who didn’t accept information he was fed, but fought for the cold, hard truth. He was the opposite of an establishment reporter and refused to compromise himself to conform with the prevalent, yielding style of mainstream journalism. It did not earn him friends in media, but he rightfully earned our deepest respect.

Cenk Uygur and Sam Seder present some of Michael’s best moments on The Young Turks. He was one of the most important voices of our time for real, fearless news. He was our colleague and our friend.
