Trump Doubles Down on Racism and the Press Still Won’t Call It Out says Eric Boehlert of Pressrun.media
from Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson · host Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson
Eric Boehlert of pressrun.media is holding the press accountable every week as he scans the coverage of Trump and points directly to their lies--whether in the form of omissions or outright misinformation. “It’s a fantasy that the press wants to advance, that [Trump] is a rational person with our interests at heart, and if he can just focus, we’ll be okay. No. He’s not going to focus and he doesn’t want to help us, and that’s the bottom line,” says Eric, and he outlines the specific moments that show how the federal government is literally done helping the public with coronavirus. All the while, Trump is proudly displaying his racism, and yet the press hasn’t called it what it is: racism, white supremacy, and white nationalism. And why is it important that they DO call him out? Eric explains that in today’s episode.
