Here we go again, John.
Recently, Tucker Carlson on Fox News attacked Congresswoman Cori Bush after she spoke out against hate crimes on people of color and the urgent need for racial justice.
Tucker Carlson accused Cori of trying to “divide the country along racial lines.” And this isn’t the first time Fox News has centered their programs on attacking women — especially women of color.
Together, this movement defeated Trump and we know that if we continue fighting we can also end Fox News’ racist, anti-women agenda. Fox News is the top media group actively aiding Trump’s top allies in Congress. If left unchecked, their hateful, anti-women lies will be allowed to continue to reach voters across the country.
That’s why it’s critical we rise against their racist attacks and harmful misinformation — especially now before the next election cycle kicks in and Fox News backs their next Trump-like favorites. Will you add your name to pressure Fox News’ top advertisers to stop financially supporting their media programs?
Women of color have always been Fox News’ favorite targets.
Fox News has attacked Congresswomen of color like AOC, Cori Bush, and Ilhan Omar tens of thousands of times, multiple days in a row.
These attacks all share the same catalyst: white supremacy. Fox News has made it clear they’re not afraid to promote racist talking points and encourage white supremacists to lash out at women of color. From the January 6 attack on the Capitol, to the hate crimes against Asian women in Atlanta — we’re seeing a rise in white supremacist violence. This is no coincidence: this is the product of the platforms that still lift up this messaging.
That’s why one of the most powerful and effective ways we can rise against white supremacy and hate crimes in our country is by holding accountable one of the worst platforms for racist rhetoric: Fox News.
Keep fighting,
Women’s March
