Conversation in an Age of Rage

Conversation in an Age of Rage

March 10, 2025 at 9:20 am  Federal, Politics, Video



Award-winning broadcaster Carol Off discusses her book At a Loss for Words: Conversation in an Age of Rage with WPFC President Heather Bakken at an event hosted by World Press Freedom Canada.

In her book, she says, “the language we once shared has been co-opted by extremists,” and we lack “the vocabulary to coherently disagree.” She examines the erosion of democracy and truth, the weaponization of language, and the perils of agenda-driven language distortion for political gain in a highly polarized world.
