Naming It and Changing It in Action
We wanted to give a little love to the creators of the petition asking Howie Carr of the Boston Herald to apologize for his sexist language used in his recent article on Elizabeth Warren. Awesome to see our readers to take the reins and call the media out on sexism!
You may remember the lovely article we talked about last week where Mr. Carr referred to the senatorial candidate as “Granny Warren” and attacked her appearance. Real hard hitting journalism there, Howie…
It’s great to see people that care about this issue and call out sexism when they see it. If we keep this up, we can all work together and eliminate this kind of language from media all together. So remember, if you see something suspect, name it and change it.
