Primary & Secondary
Herrin has participated in Primary & Secondary discussions addressing firearms media and the way information circulates online. In P&S ModCast 86 — Social Media: The Downfall of Humanity, he joined Matt Landfair, Dugan Ashley, Jack Clemons, Jose Gordon, Scott Jedlinski, and John Johnston for a wide-ranging conversation about credibility, expertise, social-media dynamics, instructor qualifications, negative engagement, and critical thinking.
His role in that conversation reflects the value of experience earned through operating a public-facing media platform: understanding how audiences interpret authority, how disagreement changes online, and how entertainment, personality, evidence, and expertise compete for attention.
