White House Launches Media Bias Tracker, Names Offenders

  • On Friday, the White House launched a 'Media Offender of the Week' section on whitehouse.gov, announced by Karoline Leavitt and framed as a new digital front in its fight with the press.
  • The administration says its grievance focuses on coverage of a Nov. 18 video by six Democratic lawmakers, claiming the White House says outlets misrepresented President Donald Trump's call for 'accountability' as calling for their 'execution' and mischaracterized the video urging service members to refuse illegal orders.
  • The inaugural pages name Alyssa Vega, Andrew Feinberg, Eric Garcia and Nancy Cordes and list 22 named 'repeat offenders' with labels like 'Bias' and 'Malpractice.'
  • The move escalates the administration's conflict with mainstream media and could further strain White House–press relations; Fox News was removed after objecting, while The Washington Post defended its journalism.
  • Amid lawsuits and settlements, the White House formalizes President Donald Trump's long campaign against mainstream outlets amid scrutiny of his treatment of reporters including a November 14 incident and Pentagon concern over Senator Mark Kelly.
