As America reaches the one year anniversary of the violent insurrection at the U.S. Capital, viewers can watch CNN’s Fareed Zakaria examination of the state of the threats to American democracy in The Fight to Save American Democracy.
In a one-hour special airing Sunday, February 27 at 10 pm ET, CNN’s Drew Griffin tells the story of Alex Jones, the far-right radio and internet host, and outspoken conspiracy theorist. Through interviews with people who knew him, worked for him, and believed him, Griffin explores Jones’ rise from the fringes of public access television to creating a wide-reaching media empire that touched the Trump White House. The hour will also trace the roots of Jones’ conspiracy theories from the 1990s to today.
CNN political commentator Van Jones revisits the historic uprising to reveal the true origins of the fiery clash and how its legacy still smolders three decades later. Premiering Friday, April 29 at 11pm ET, the documentary delves into how failing institutions, aggressive policing, and deep-seated racism were driving forces behind the five days of violence and destruction, and the crucial lessons that must be learned to avoid a repeat of history. Jones also reflects on his own personal experience being arrested during protests as a young law intern in San Francisco – an incident, he says, that changed his life then and still shapes him decades later.
