| Week #1: November 20, 2016 |
| 1. |
Acts of hate -- for the first 400 per SPLC, I could name many that I had seen covered by the media. Then I noticed the count exceeded 700, and I realized I knew very little about those additional 300. Read More About This |
| 2. | Reporters critique their own paper's coverage of Trump, then delete it (see below tweet which disappeared overnight, after 2k+ retweets). |
| 3. | A president-elect is openly (on Twitter!) trying to take away our freedom of expressions, First Amendment rights: targets this week include SNL, NYT and Hamilton. |
| 4. |
The media, including traditional media, covered an alt-right conference and published their demands, which included a ban on immigration for 50 years of anyone not white, and an all white nation. Read More About This |
| 5. | Major media following Trump's reality show storylines, instead of reporting as traditional media/journalism. |
| 6. | Democrats advocating for a Mitt Romney appointment to Secretary of State -- a man with whom we agree on almost nothing on policy, but because he is competent and not a racist or a bigot. |
| 7. | The pace of untraditional, unorthodox acts, and conflicts of interest by Trump are coming so fast and furious, they're barely getting coverage. |
| 8. | Utter outrage by the left at the complacency and largely silence of our elected leaders. Watch of a Tea Party-esque type uprising. |
| 9. | A request for tolerance for, and understanding of, white supremacists. |
