It is harmful and disappointing that such a biased view would be published on the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. And, it was particularly hurtful to members of our organization, which seeks to engender fairness, address bias, and advocate for fuller and more informed news regarding communities of color.
We are asking other professional media organizations in Western Pennsylvania to join us in protest—in the spirit of togetherness.
By uniting against the language of hate, we make room for a responsible fourth estate that builds a stronger democracy.
