He’s a convicted felon. That’s a fact. Say it.
Could someone who works in journalism explain to me why the @washingtonpost needed to add quotes around the phrase convicted criminal when Trump is, in fact, a convicted criminal. pic.twitter.com/LH3aN99nXl

"Biden Campaign Ad Paints Trump as a Felon"
— Jennifer Schulze (@NewsJennifer) June 17, 2024
It is amazing the lengths legacy media goes to soft- peddle basic facts about Trump. He IS a convicted felon & this new Biden ad clearly says that. The @nytimes headline and story about the ad should say it plainly, too. COME ON. pic.twitter.com/OAOiJZhuae
Looks like @nytpolitics tweaked the paper's headline on the new Biden ad hitting Trump's felon status, after criticism that the paper treated this status as a he-said-she-said matter.

They didn’t brand him a felon – he IS a felon.
