(Opinion) Littwin: You think it’s easy to keep writing about Lauren Boebert? How about too easy? – By Mike Littwin (Colorado Sun) / May 1, 2022
A responsible columnist can’t spend all his time writing about the latest Boebert outrage. But there are weeks, like this one, when we don’t really have a choice.
Iknow this sounds counterintuitive, but believe me, it’s true. The hardest part of writing about Lauren Boebert is that it’s way too easy to write about Lauren Boebert.
You could write about her and some fresh outrage nearly every day, which is, of course, exactly what she wants you to do. Try reading her @laurenboebert Twitter feed every morning and you’ll see.
Or you could try to ignore the routinely bigoted, incendiary stuff she says because you don’t want to give an even wider audience to the routinely bigoted, incendiary stuff she says. You may remember when we had this argument, only on a much larger scale, about Donald Trump. You don’t hear it so much anymore in the post-January 6, Big Lie world.
Or you could, which is what I try to do, weigh in only when it’s irresponsible not to — which would be a week like this week, in which Boebert appears in news story after news story after news story.
