28:51Now PlayingExposed: WaPo Fires Black Columnist for Telling the Truth About White Male Violence
Karen Attiah revealed that she was fired from The Washington Post after being accused of ‘gross misconduct’ for her posts highlighting the dangers of white male political violence. She described this as part of what she calls ‘annihilation culture,’ a new wave of censorship that goes beyond cancel culture. The panel emphasized that Black columnists are on the front lines, often ‘taken out’ when they speak truth about systemic violence and oppression. The case underscores declining press freedoms and a dangerous retreat from accountability in U.S. media institutions.
