The Optics Are Bad On This....

Many people like to add “retweets are not endorsements” to their Twitter bio.

But, when you are only retweeted one side of the issue, isn’t that like endorsing that side?

KGTV (San Diego) News Director Todd Reed retweeted a number of posts about the Supreme Court likely overturning Roe vs. Wade.

Just looking at these retweets, I think I know where Reed stands on Roe v. Wade and this is the guy that is running the news department at the Scripps station.

Just about everyone has their thoughts and beliefs on the abortion issue, but as a News Director, neither I, nor the viewers and most importantly the staff at KGTV should not know what Reed’s views are.

It seems that with the advent of cable news and their opinion based programing, Journalists think it is okay to share their personal views.

That is not what Journalism is!

Hopefully, the suits at Scripps will explain this to their San Diego News Director.

Hopefully….
