White House launches ‘Media Offender of the Week’ section on website
In a bid to keep the mainstream media in check, the White House has launched an internet hall of shame for reporters and outlets it deems ‘misleading’ and ‘biased’

The White House has launched a new section on its official website aimed at singling out outlets and reporters in the “Fake News Media” that present narratives and news at odds with the administration.
The newly launched website page, “Media Offender of the Week,” is a public database that essentially puts outlets, reporters, and even Democrat lawmakers on blast by highlighting their claims and countering them with “The Truth.”
“The White House just dropped a flamethrower on the Fake News Media: a new public database that catalogs the avalanche of lies, deliberate distortions, and manufactured hoaxes churned out by activist ‘journalists’ and their failing outlets,” the White House said in an email announcing the new page.
On the website, this week’s headlining offenders are those who reported on a video made by six Democrat lawmakers, in which they suggested that military servicemembers and members of the national security apparatus did not have to obey “illegal” orders from the president, although they failed to specify which orders they were referring to.
President Donald Trump accused these individuals of engaging in “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL.”
On the media offenders page, the White House accused CBS News, The Boston Globe, and The Independent of misrepresenting the president’s comments on the matter.
“The media misrepresented President Trump’s call for Members of Congress to be held accountable for inciting sedition by saying that he called for their ‘execution,’” the “offense” section read.
The WH hit back with a “Truth” section that countered this alleged narrative, noting, “The Democrats and Fake News Media subversively implied that President Trump had issued illegal orders to service members. Every order President Trump has issued has been lawful. It is dangerous for sitting Members of Congress to incite insubordination in the United States’ military, and President Trump called for them to be held accountable.”
This weekly media offender page will run in cohesion with the White House Rapid Response account on X, the communications office said.
