CNN had a panel of women on defending Trump from accusations of racism. Looked them up and they’re a political coalition that also made media appearances in 2016 to defend him after The Access Hollywood tape. google.com/amp/s/dfw.cbsl…
You know @brianstelter, @cnn should be more clear that these aren’t representative Trump voters but a political response team.
So this tweet made a splash. I want to add a few thoughts here.

CNN certainly knew who these women were and owed it to viewers to be transparent.

Using political operatives instead of average voters is another symptom of the damaging pundit cultural in news today.
Moreover, this segment does real harm to conservatives. Conservative voters are not in lock step about these issues.

Most may support Trump but that doesn’t mean they support these comments. And 1 in 5 don’t support him. This segment paints an inaccurate portrait of voters
No sound cloud or podcast to promote. Thank a teacher for me.

If you’re interested in online disinformation, there’s a book coming out that I contributed to and may interest you. amazon.com/Rhet-Ops-Rheto…

Hope everyone sees that @farhip at @washingtonpost write an article about this tonight. washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/styl…
