The Hound 11/10

Hi there,

It’s Monday. Today we’re talking about the sudden resignation of a BBC director over an edited clip of a speech by President Trump, widespread power shutoffs across the U.S., and more.

We’re also tracking the rising tide of misogynistic media rhetoric aimed at young women voters, labeling them “scary,” “unhinged,” and “a threat to America.”

🖊️ Add your name to demand that newsrooms stop normalizing attacks on women’s political participation and instead cover all voters with dignity and fairness.

Read about this, and more, with today’s stories:
