When a public movement erupts, media attention almost immediately centers on the spectacle—the street confrontations, the viral headlines, and the rapid-fire political commentary. But once the news cycle moves on, we rarely stop to analyze how the information ecosystem shaped what we saw, or what actually happens to that momentum after the cameras leave.
In this special episode of Outrage Overload, we sit down with Mila Atmos, host of the Future Hindsight podcast. Together, we revisit the 2011 Occupy Wall Street movement—operating right on the precipice of algorithm-driven social media—to explore how movement-building, media coverage, and police reactions shaped public trust, and what today’s exhausted majority can learn about driving real, long-term civic action.
