This looks like the beginning of a media epidemic of some sort. Everybody is breaking out with a severe case of conscience and they’re going to right-wing Project Veritas to come clean. Last week Fox News reporter Ivory Hecker announced on air that she was exposing the corruption of the network and was promptly fired. She also has reportedly received $175,000 in donations. There is money in becoming a right-wing hero, apparently.
Here’s the next one in line, a CBS weather announcer, who drops her bombshell in the middle of her weather report and then goes on to talk sweetly about clouds and wind.

This piques my curiosity. What I know of this field, from knowing some of the very first women who went on the air back in the 1970’s, when I was, incidentally, one of the first female radio announcers in the Denver market, is that this is a job that people would kill for. I mean kill for. The women that I knew who were trying to land one of these gigs wouldn’t care if the heads of the network were killing their own children and baking them in a pie. I mean that. They would have turned a blind eye. The playbook in that business was straight out of All About Eve. So I am fascinated to know what the motive is here.
The only two pieces of information I’ve found is that Moss changed her profile on social media to cite Galatians 2.0, which reads, “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
So it’s about martyrdom, apparently.
The other whack a mole, Ivory Hecker, complained that she couldn’t push hydroxychloroquine as a cure for COVID on air, and that’s right and proper. So maybe these women who think they’re discriminated against are fanatics of some sort, in which case the networks are lucky to be rid of them.
This reeks of conspiracy theory. This will be interesting to follow.
Women have put up with sexist s–t for decades. So what’s going on? Fed up or seeing an opportunity? I can’t tell. Maybe these women really have had enough, but it would be unusual. Have to keep an eye on this.
It’s political. They’re RWNJs and can’t get away with it any more.
I’ll see your two RWNJ’s and raise you an indefinite number of more … It seems like the Networks probably have a running, “case-of”, attached to individuals that are looking for financial gain by someone elses’s example …
Ursula Faw, nailed it with the general conditions of female discriminations going way back, now I think the TV Networks are into physical appearances, especially the lower class Fox crews that play to dumbass Trump-types … as I listen to NPR, there are some female voices that are very articulate, and come from people that show high levels of intelligence and produce smooth, enjoyable reports … when they make appearances on a TV program like, (This Week), on ABC, they always show maximum decorum, and their intelligent responses are well received and provide a, “trusted”, message …
These women have worked hard in their profession, many of them have been on the radio for years, the majority of them are not bleached blond bombs, just very pleasant looking with an air of experience and trust, and a voice that welcomes you into their world of knowledge …
The world is full of drooling slobs like Trump, that think so much of a beauty as shown by her looks, which has nothing to do with her intelligence quota …
The NPR gals are a true example of current news delivered in a very comfortable way … your mind attaches a vision to that voice and I really do not expect to see some pneumatic model behind her mike, something demanded by FOX and others …
However, that is NOT to say a beautiful woman cannot show a higher level of intelligence, it just seems that the networks have a skewed list of requirements for some of their employee’s …
Yeah, I’d definitely call it a “developing situation”.
Galatians 2:20 is not about martyrdom. It is about a commitment to living a Christ-like life. The context, starting in verse 17, makes the meaning clear.
Then maybe she should’ve used the full section rather than picking a fairly contentious verse.
I’d also argue that you’re ignoring 2:21. Per the New International Version: “I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!” So “martyrdom” DOES play a part in the “context” of the verse. That verse is pretty clear in “Christ had to die.”
Don’t read it as “righteousness”, but as “justice”.
And the whole passage doesn’t promote martyrdom, but doing the right thing.
I did not ignore 2:21. The article is arguing that Moss sees Christianity as self-martyrdom. But that is not what the verses are saying.
Project Veritas is not a company good and reputable people would work for. It’s a company that breaks the law and lies in order to score political points – which usually get it in more trouble than it already was.
So…, pro republican is it?
