March 30, 2023 – “I plan to make my NewsNation show the show that really tackles mental health and the substance use disorder crisis in this country in a thoughtful way,” Vargas says. “We’re doing the news of the day, which often involves the crisis at the southern border and the fentanyl crisis in this country. It’s absolutely true — as I heard a former colleague and friend of mine, John Miller, say on CNN, We’re all focused on the supply of fentanyl as this huge problem. Nobody’s talking about the demand — and he’s right. Yes, we have to fix this, but we can’t just focus on one half of the problem because as long as the demand is there, cartels of some kind will find a way to satisfy it, and to enrich themselves off of that. So I intend to really cover this mental health crisis, especially for our adolescents and kids, which has become — we know from statistics — really, really bad. I want to cover these issues in a really thoughtful way, a way I don’t think TV really does to a large extent right now.”
