Time’s up: is it time to cancel ‘cancel culture’? We discuss one of the big topics of the moment: cancel culture. Is it just a modern day problem that occurs on social media? Maybe, but we take a look at how algorithms on social media feed our collective ‘outrage’ and whether this is contributing to cancel culture.We debate which celebrity might be next to be ‘cancelled’ with our guest Gemma Bath, Senior News Writer at Mamamia.
