Call Out Fox’s Dangerous Rhetoric on Boat Strikes

On air, a prominent Fox News host recently declared that Americans must choose between being “pro-drug-dealers” or supporting violent military-style “boat-strikes” — leaving no room for nuanced discussion of policy, law, or human rights. 

That kind of framing — partisanship over thoughtful debate — fuels fear, demonizes communities, and normalizes extremism. Journalists must reject this false binary and demand serious coverage of underlying issues like drug trafficking, immigration, and due process.

Sign to demand that media outlets hold broadcasters accountable when they use incendiary rhetoric to shape public opinion — and insist on coverage that treats people, policy, and justice with seriousness and fairness.
