Trans Reporter Lewis Wallace: In Trump Era, Journalists Urgently Need to Know What We Stand For

– Watch Part 2 of our interview with Lewis Wallace, who was fired from the public radio show “Marketplace” after he published a blog post about journalistic neutrality. Wallace talks about his career in journalism, and reads his post, Objectivity is dead, and I’m okay with it, in which he questions whether people who hold “morally reprehensible” positions, such as supporting white supremacy, can be covered objectively, and argues journalists shouldn’t care if they are called “politically correct” or “liberal.”
