The Rachman Review

The political stuff is completely biased and untrustworthy. Like the episode on supply chains was excellent and informative. The one right after with Kim Gatass - completely wrong on the information. ————- Added on Sept 18, 2026 - for a top newspaper- the production is ham fisted. They inserted an advertisement right in the middle of someone speaking. Too cheap to even hire a real person to put an ad in a natural break in the conversation.

Why isn’t Rachman making clear that the two panelists’ parent organization is funded by AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee? I was wondering why the two panelists seemed so careful in discussing the Iran War situation, so I had to look up WINEP on Wikipedia: “John Mearsheimer, a University of Chicago political science professor, and Stephen Walt, academic dean at Harvard Kennedy School at Harvard University, described it [WINEP] as ‘part of the core’ of the pro-Israeli lobby in the United States.”

Gideon features commentators who appear more concerned about discrediting the Trump administration than conveying thoughtful analysis. In the most recent example, a commentator claims that the administration‘s actions are purely the result of Marco Rubio’s personal agenda. He doesn’t mention that this is consistent with Trump’s first administration. In the same episode, the unsubstantiated claims that the administration has a racial agenda go unchallenged. This show is a prime example of why the media has lost credibility.

The recent episode containing the interview with Dahlia Scheindlin was misleading. It did not disclose that she is on the extreme left of Israeli politics, and that her assertions of what Israelis want are unrepresentative and inaccurate.

I like the seasoned reserved Brithish take on geopolitics, but boy, giving the world changing pace, you might need to rethink before putting it up online.
