She was a reporter for WSET-TV in Lynchburg, Virginia, a prominent buckle hole in the Bible Belt, and she made it her business to report on the truth.
Unfortunately, Ms. Crowe worked for a station that, while it was an ABC affiliate, was still owned by the right-wing media conglomerate Sinclair Broadcasting. And after a report in which she laid out the facts about climate change and how it was affecting the Lynchburg area, the station owners scolded her for not including the other side of the story - the side that argued that climate change is a hoax.
Then they fired her.
Ms. Crowe has since become a freelance reporter, and she now does reports for the MeidasTouch Network, a fact-based, liberal-friendly YouTube channel that calls out Donald Trump and his right-wing allies. Ms. Crowe is ready to be counted as a fighter for freedom of the press.
So how could I not feature her here? 😀
