I respond to Jubilee Media's WILD attempt to fact check my debate
Manage episode 433893733 series 2832293
I joined @jubilee for my second debate appearance this summer - this time the topic was gun control. Given my background working extensively on gun rights, mental health, and criminal justice reform, it was a debate I was excited to join and actually find "middle ground" on - the title of the series.
But unlike my first debate appearance with them, this time Jubilee's production attempted to pull a seat up in the debate and join the argument in the editing process. They included numerous stats and "fact checks" that were either completely irrelevant to the topic at hand, or even worse, were studies with such bad methodologies they've become a running joke.
Honestly, if their producers wanted to debate me...I would have been happy to do so. But this was a cheap trick - and since so many Americans are never taught how to actually read data, it seems many in their audience are falling for their attempt to discredit very solid statistics. So join me as I yet again have to fact check the fact checkers in this behind the scenes reaction to the final product.
