White House Launches ‘Media Offender of the Week’ to Call Out Fake News
The White House has introduced a new section on its website called Media Offender of the Week. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced the move, stating it would expose what the administration labels as 'fake news'. The phrase itself carries a history tied to former President Donald Trump’s rhetoric.
Leavitt revealed the initiative during a press briefing, where she accused news outlets of spreading misleading reports from inside the White House. She claimed such stories appear daily and require public correction.
The new section will regularly feature examples of what the White House considers inaccurate news. Leavitt’s announcement signals a direct effort to challenge news narratives the administration disputes. How outlets respond—and whether the practice continues—remains to be seen.
