On Sunday, Trump tweeted openly racist remarks aimed at four progressive democratic congresswomen. Yet many tweets and headlines from media outlets failed to accurately label his tweets as racism. The media has a responsibility to call out Trump’s racism, not skirt around the issue.

Right-wing media has reacted to a new report of sexual assault committed by President Trump with conspiracy theories and smears against E. Jean Carroll’s character. 

Sam Bee gets it right – the media has a responsibility to cover these accusations thoroughly and diligently. Every single time. 

The lies told in anti-choice media affect real people and keep individuals from seeking safe and legal abortion care.

When your worldview is heavily influenced by misinformation it can be difficult to see and accept the truth, but some are proving that it is possible.

After a week of what felt like endless attacks on abortion access, folks took to Twitter to share how they became #ExForcedBirth.

As reported by Reuters, “Schools in Charlottesville, Virginia, remained closed for a second consecutive day on Friday as police investigated a threat of racist violence against non-white students that had been posted online, officials said.”

This should be a way bigger story. 

When news outlets report on Trump’s many promises, they need to give the context. Sam Bee gives a good example.👆
