Episode 121: “Reagan’s Evangelical Vision for America”

John Fea   |  October 30, 2023 Leave a Comment

How did Ronald Reagan use the media to shape his evangelical vision for America, a vision rooted in political freedom, economic freedom, and religious freedom that is still with us today and continues to define the discourse of both of our political parties? In this episode we talk to Diane Winston, the Knight Chair in Media and Religion at the University of Southern California, about her new book Righting the American Dream: How the Media Mainstreamed Reagan’s Evangelical Vision.
