Ed mentioned this earlier today. Christopher Rufo has been digging up some of Katherine Maher’s old tweets and word of that is now getting some attention including at NPR. But NPR doesn’t include any of the tweets it merely describes two of them.
Conservative activist Christopher Rufo is among those now targeting NPR’s new chief executive, Katherine Maher, for messages she posted to social media years before joining the network. Among others, those posts include a 2020 tweet that called Trump racist and another that appeared to minimize rioting during social justice protests that year.
For those that follow the link, they can see at least one of the tweets in question, but even that one has been downplayed by NPR. She didn’t just call Trump racist, she called him a “deranged racist sociopath.”
What is that deranged racist sociopath ranting about today? I truly do not understand.
