I love this from Carrie's Substack:
"Many journalists, considering themselves above reproach, hiding behind the idea of “objectivity,” (or really, not wanting anyone to call them names) scoffed at Umansky. They continued to report “both sides” journalism, with more than a hint of laziness sprinkled in.
The central theme to this newsletter is that we cannot put ourselves in the middle of peoples’ humanity and the people who want to take that humanity away.
We cannot normalize fascism.
We cannot report without context.
If we do any of those things, we are contributing to the demise of democracy.
My job is to hold journalism to truth to power. It’s to illuminate what it looks like in our everyday lives, with powerful writing and humor. I will do serious stories on everyday power dynamics. I will also look at pop culture, and share personal anecdotes. I invite you to share your experiences with me. Or just share the writing you find here with others."
