‘White Noise’ Director on Alt-Right: ‘As Long as Trump Refuses to Concede, This Stuff Is Just Going to Fester’
Marta Balaga “White Noise” director Daniel Lombroso’s interest in the alt-right started in 2016, five months before Donald’s Trump’s election. Working as a reporter for The Atlantic magazine, he spent three years in the field, starting his research on Reddit and 4chan before gaining the trust of three of the movement’s brightest stars: Richard Spencer, organizer of the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville; social media personality Mike Cernovich; and Canadian activist Lauren Southern.“It was a slow process,” says Lombroso.
