More than 300 newspapers join a nationwide effort to publish editorials in response to Trump's attack on media
The Boston Globe first proposed a coordinated response by editorial boards nationwide last week as the president continues to rail against so-called “fake news” media organizations with claims that the press covers him unfairly.
Publications ranging from the New York Times to smaller regional publications such as the South Bend Tribune are part of the initiative.
“We’re not your enemy. We just want to help make this community stronger. There’s nothing fake about that…,” the South Bend paper's editorial read and listed the staffers who are part of and report on the community.
"Christian Sheckler’s investigative reporting on Elkhart County’s criminal justice system revealed how poor policing led two men to spend years in prison for a crime they didn’t commit, and how prosecutors continued to double down even in the face of new evidence. His work shed new light on a stark example of injustice," the editorial read.
"Christian is not your enemy. He calls himself a “fact-finder,” whose work is meant to “reveal what the truth is.”
Since his inauguration, President Trump has characterized major news organizations as “the enemy of the people”. In a series of tweets on Thursday, Trump repeated the claim and declared "THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA IS THE OPPOSITION PARTY. It is very bad for our Great Country....BUT WE ARE WINNING!" and accused the Boston Globe of collusion. "HONESTY WINS!" the president tweeted.
