More from Jeff Shapiro from his liberal perspective without any balance. He uses Mark Warner’s position on the intelligence committee to mention China and TikTok s as a foothold to say how wacko the Republican Governor is to deny “desperately needed jobs” for the Ford battery plant. When is this dude retiring because a fair journalist he is not.
Where was anything even close to similar enter the Northam administration? It was almost nowhere. I hope my tax dollars aren’t doing much to support this commonwealth version of NPR light. PREVIOUS REVIEWS Dropping my rating to one star because of the repeated presence of Jeff Schapiro without a voice from the opposing side that he occupies. Really Schapiro? Objection to critical race theory from a diverse set of parents is “white resentment”? (or since “critical race theory” in a technical sense doesn’t exist in any public school curriculum 🤥…that’s a lying emoji in case you missed it…how about key negative elements of critical race theory). How about it’s parental resentment at something that further tears at the fabric of society? Like we need more of that in todays times. Previous rating comment… Most of the coverage is pretty good keeping Virginians informed until they touch on politics, especially the gubernatorial race. Terry McAuliffe gets the benefit of the doubt every time and Glenn Youngkin…don’t hold your breath. Anytime McAuliffe does something adverse in the public we get the explanation that he was just in artful. Anytime Youngkin has any sort of setback for anything it’s because he’s so close to Trump or because he’s a Trump supporter. UPDATE Unfortunately I cannot remove the one star to give it zero stars.Jeff Shapiro continues his anti-republican statements and anything that Governor Youngkin does is racially tinged is somehow nefarious or just plain bad for the commonwealth. I don’t understand why the show either doesn’t have him stop displaying his bias or have someone on the show who is from the center right to at least present some equal views.
Thank you!
