Moms for Liberty’s media training session was a warning to the press – By Ja’han Jones (MSNBC) / July 3, 2023
Moms for Liberty, the extremist group claiming to know what’s best for America’s kids, is apparently focusing on becoming more media-savvy.
As I previewed on The ReidOut Blog last week, Moms for Liberty, the extreme right-wing, education-focused organization picking school board fights across the country, hosted their annual conference in Philadelphia over the weekend.
Though most media attention focused on appearances from leading Republican presidential candidates — including Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Asa Hutchinson and Vivek Ramaswamy — one program in particular offered the clearest insight yet into the group’s modus operandi.
You may remember from my previous post that Moms for Liberty scheduled a breakout session promising to offer tips on “mastering the spin” when it comes to the media. Given the group is already pushing a bigoted anti-education agenda under the guise of parental love and care, I figured the session could have just as easily been named “How to manipulate the media and its narratives for personal gain.”
