Dear White House — via President Trump.

On December 1, 2025, you launched a page on whitehouse.gov called *Media Offenders.* The tagline is *Misleading. Biased. Exposed.* The categories are *Bias, Circular Reporting, Failure to Report, False Claim, Left-wing Lunacy, Lie, Malpractice, Mischaracterization, Misrepresentation,* and *Omission of Text.* The leaderboard ranks legacy outlets in a *race to the bottom.* The Washington Post is in first place. We have read the page. We have read every entry in the *Lie* category. We have read the *Media Offender of the Week.* We are writing this letter to say something we did not expect to say to a Trump White House. Thank you.

Most of the entries on that page are real. CNN's missed-race-of-suspect correction is real. MSNBC's Patel-detail story was, by the reporters' own concessions, undersourced. Reuters' premature obituary of DOGE was filed too soon. The Washington Post's *kill-everybody* characterization came from unnamed sources rebutted on the record. We do not pretend otherwise. We do not flatten the asymmetry. The lies on the *Lie* page are, in real numbers, mostly lies.

We have spent the last seven days, on this site, running open letters at that same legacy media incumbency. We have argued, in print, that the Section 230 architecture has shielded an editorial-equivalent industry from editorial-equivalent liability. We have called the cable news incumbents — both networks — the terminus of our fifty-day senator campaign. We have named CNN. We have named Fox. The Administration's *Media Offenders* page and our open letters this week are pointed in the same direction. We are doing your work for you, in print, every morning. We did not ask permission. We do not need your blessing. We are mentioning the alignment because we want to be clear, on the record, that it exists.

Now — what is missing from the list.

One. Fox News is not on the leaderboard. In April 2023, Fox News paid Dominion Voting Systems $787,500,000 to settle a defamation lawsuit predicated on knowingly false statements about the 2020 election broadcast nightly from the network's own studios. The settlement is the largest in the history of American defamation law. Fox's own internal communications, produced in discovery, showed anchors privately calling the on-air claims *insane* and *nuts* while broadcasting them anyway. *Misleading. Biased. Exposed.* The Dominion record meets every standard your *Lie* page applies. Fox is not on the leaderboard. The Washington Post is. The standard is not the standard.

**Two. *Left-wing Lunacy* is a category name.** A neutral media-bias tracker, in 2026, run by the federal executive branch, with a tagline that promises *exposure* of bias, does not have a partisan adjective in its category list. Either *Right-wing Lunacy* is also a category, or *Left-wing Lunacy* is the proof that the page is the thing it claims to oppose. We refreshed the page before we wrote this paragraph. *Right-wing Lunacy* is not a category.

Three. The leaderboard is the proof. Every outlet on the public leaderboard — Washington Post, MSNBC, CBS, CNN, New York Times, Politico, Wall Street Journal — is left-leaning, center-left, or has been broadly read as such by the right's own analysis for thirty years. Not one outlet listed is to the right of center. A neutral page, applied to the actual American media landscape, would have OAN, Newsmax, Breitbart, the Daily Caller, the Federalist, the New York Post, and the Daily Wire on the same leaderboard, scored at the same weight, with retractions and defamation losses counted by the same arithmetic. They are not on the leaderboard. The Washington Post is.

**Four. The *Media Offender of the Week* is a comedian.** Jimmy Kimmel, currently featured at the top of the page, is flagged for an *expectant widow* joke about the First Lady, categorized under *Left-wing Lunacy* and *violent rhetoric.* Jimmy Kimmel is a late-night comedian. The joke is a joke. Filing a comedian's monologue, at the top of a federal government page that promises to expose *the avalanche of lies churned out by activist journalists,* under *violent rhetoric* — undermines the page's own claim to seriousness, more efficiently than any of our paragraphs above can.

On the leaderboard, and not on the leaderboard. The standard is not the standard.

Five. The tipline is one-way. The page invites the public to submit *Report Bias* tips against legacy outlets. The same page does not invite the public to submit tips on Fox News bias, on Truth Social bias, on the President's own factual record, or on West Wing podium statements. The bias the public is allowed to flag, on whitehouse.gov, is the bias the President's party already opposes. A real anti-bias project has a tipline that points at itself, too.

Here is the part where, in a normal letter on this site, we tell the recipient that they are not who we are ultimately after.

You are who we are ultimately after on the *media* file. We have a separate letter queued on the *political* file — a different letter, on a different track, addressing the President directly on a different set of receipts. That letter is coming. It is unrelated to this one. This letter is about the page. This letter is about whether the page is a real anti-bias project or a partisan re-biasing dressed as one. The two are different questions, and we are answering only one of them today.

The offer. We want to help you. We want to be the one place on the American internet that Republicans and Democrats — together, at the same URL, at the same hour — can come for honest reporting on the Administration. We will cover your campaign like a rabid dog. We would do that anyway. The difference is that here, readers on the left and readers on the right will at the very least know there is no bias on the page. What you see is what you get. The truth, for better and for worse, written down without apology in either direction. The President can name us. The President can quote us. The President can link us. The President can ignore us. The offer stands whichever choice the President makes. No conditions. No leverage. No quid pro quo.

What we are not. We are not joining the White House. We are not a subsidiary, not a contractor, not a recipient of an executive order, not a tax-advantaged foundation, not a 501(c)(4) waiting for a green light, not on a payroll, not on a press list. We are a publication. The byline at the bottom of every letter on this site is one anonymous human and a language model in the same room. We accept no money from the federal government. We will accept none. The offer above is not for a partnership. The offer is for parallel work, pointed in the same direction, bracketed by our independence on every side.

What we are asking — on the record, today. Yes or no. Is the goal a free and unbiased media, or a differently-biased one. If the answer is the first, the next time the President of the United States stands at a podium and names *Media Offenders,* the President can name Fox News alongside the Washington Post. The day that happens is the day this letter becomes our endorsement of the page. The day it does not, this letter becomes our exposure of it.

We are not waiting on a reply. We will read the next *Media Offender of the Week* the day it goes up. The leaderboard will tell us what the project is. The category list will tell us what the project is. The President's silence on Fox News will tell us what the project is. We will write the next letter accordingly.
