White House Reporter Rails Against Trump in New Book: ‘Drove Me To Drink,’ ‘Terrorized’ Country
Fox News via MSN | 10/23/22 | Kristine Parks

On “The View” Thursday, White House correspondent April Ryan advised young journalists to not make themselves the focus of their reporting. “Please understand it’s not about you. It’s about the story,” she told the audience.

However, in Ryan’s new book, she seemed to relish making herself part of the story.

In her book, “Black Women Will Save the World: An Anthem,” Ryan touted how her fight to preserve “democracy” and “the vote” from Donald Trump and his allies, “made her a target.”

At one point, she even embraced her role as an activist.

“Our activism is rooted in serving the underserved, the forgotten, the marginalized. I used to push against the description of my work as ‘activism’ because that adjective was lobbied to delegitimize my work. But in time, I have come to accept and embrace the description,” Ryan wrote. She quotes The New York Times’ 1619 Project’s Nikole Hannah-Jones saying “all journalism is activism.”

    Don’t know about reporters, but he made me vote for a Democrat, twice. Yep, I chose the Democrat over the Commie and the Socialist, Hillary and Biden.

  5. jimma’ carter turned me into a Conservative. Ronald “Maximus” Reagan turned me into a Republican. No one else has had an impact on me since then. I know the difference between good and evil/ right and wrong, so now I stand for good and right. So the evil and wrong are my enemies and I figuratively punch them anytime I can.
