I would agree with you that that number is a concern if it is accurate. I do believe that we need to have journalists who represent the full breadth of the American society so that we can report well for all Americans.
Congressman, I appreciate the opportunity to address this. I regret those tweets. I would not tweet them again today. They represented a time where I was reflecting on something that I believe that the president had said rather than who he is. I don't presume that anyone is a racist.
I don't believe that, sir.

The number one challenge here that we see is, of course, the First Amendment in the United States is a fairly robust protection of rights. And that is a protection of rights both for platforms, which I actually think is very important that platforms have those rights to be able to regulate what kind of content they want on their sites.

I am not presuming such. I just don't have, we don't track that information about our journalists.
I am a boy with the wrong body parts. I'm a little over two months on testosterone. A teen in transition fights for acceptance. And my name is Ben because I changed it.
You are Rachel. That is who you are. He's going down a path that is going to be a huge struggle.
We do not track the numbers or the voter registration.
I am not presuming such. I just don't have, we don't track that information about our journalists.
I don't believe that, sir.
I don't think I've ever read that book, sir.
Apologies, I don't recall that I did.
I have never said that, sir.
