The White House has launched a "Media Bias" website with an "Offender Hall of Shame" [View all]
The White House has launched a "Media Bias" website with an "Offender Hall of Shame" where it is posting "a record of the medias false and misleading stories flagged".
The "hall of shame" contains details of what the White House is calling "fake news", the publication, and the reporters who reported it. But social media users have hit back at the initiative, with one calling it "the ultimate form of propaganda."
"Why would I trust a government that continually lies to me to inform me of which media outlets have bias or are lying to me?", another user wrote on X.
The website features reporting by CBS News, The Boston Globe, The Independent, and The Washington Post, amongst others. "The White House launching a 'Media Bias Hall of Shame' is just an official government enemies list dressed up as transparency", wrote another user.
The Trump White House is holding the Fake News accountable like never before, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement announcing the media bias page.
