AOC Says It Might Be Time To ‘Rein In’ Media After DC Riots - And Fox News Is Already Hysterical
Media Bias,Media Industry,Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Even in the wake of something as dramatic as last week’s DC riots, so much of the speechifying and legislative maneuvering that takes place on any given day in the nation’s capital — even and especially during the era of Trump — is predictable and superficial. Representatives prance and preen. Senators fall in line behind the party elders. Sure, there are those who break ranks every now and then, but it seems rarely enough to matter to the overall outcome. And then there are legislators like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who take a keen interest in structures and systems — and who have little time for niceties and casting votes that do little more than send a message rather than produce anything actionable.
