Video Series
Our original video series take you everywhere from the heartland of America, to Lebanon, to Israel, and to our New York City office, where we break down everything you might have missed this week. Watch Ben Kawaller ask voters in the Bronx why they voted for both AOC and Trump in the 2024 election, debates between Gen Z liberals and conservatives on the future of our country, and testimony from civilians living under Hezbollah rule.
FP Live
Our weekly show brings you sharp commentary from friends of The Free Press, and helps you make sense of a chaotic news cycle. Michael Moynihan and Batya Ungar-Sargon co-host our program every Friday, live from The Free Press New York offices.
The America Debates
Our live debate series, recorded in cities across the country, on some of the most contentious and complex issues facing the nation including immigration, criminal justice reform, and the legacy of the sexual revolution.
Ben Meets America
One journalist’s attempt to understand the American electorate. Ben Meets America is a political series for the politically homeless—and an antidote to the idea that we live in a hyperpolarized society destined to hate one another.
Hezbollah's Hostages
Hezbollah’s Hostages, an eight-part series produced by the Center for Peace Communications and presented by The Free Press, features the actual recorded testimony of Lebanese and Syrian civilians in Hezbollah’s grip.
FP in Israel
Three mini-documentaries from our trip to Israel in the weeks following the attacks on October 7, 2023. The first two cover the massacres at the Nova Music Festival and Kibbutz Kfar Aza. In the third, we travel to the West Bank to talk to ordinary Palestinians about the war and their futures.
Swing State Debates
Swing State Debates is Ben Kawaller’s election-season foray into the American political psyche. Ben’s roundtable-style discussions move beyond partisan talking points, showing how real American voters actually work through some of the most contentious issues of our time.
