Good Morning America Calls Ketanji Brown Jackson the ‘First Black Supreme Court Justice’

Good Morning America falsely called Ketanji Brown Jackson the “first Black Supreme Court Justice in US History” in titles to videos posted on multiple social media platforms, where the ABC television show has millions of subscribers and followers.

GMA made the untrue statement in the title of a YouTube video to its 4.08 million subscribers, which read: “Ketanji Brown Jackson sworn in as first Black Supreme Court justice in US history.” The same title accompanied the video on GMA’s Twitter account, which has 3.7 million followers. In reality, the late Thurgood Marshall was the first black justice and was succeeded by black Justice Clarence Thomas following his retirement.

GMA did issue a correction to the “erroneous tweet,” after deletion.

The YouTube video had over 10,000 views before the title had been corrected. The comment section is quick to point out Good Morning America’s obvious mistake, while the tweet was up for nearly five hours without a correction before it was deleted. Politico made the same mistake in April, tweeting: “Ketanji Brown Jackson will likely be confirmed as the first Black Supreme Court justice by the end of this week.”

In March, citing documents from Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-TX) office, Breitbart News, reported that “Brown Jackson sentenced those in possession of child pornography to nearly 60 percent less time than the national average,” adding:

Furthermore, cases of child porn distribution in which Jackson was the presiding judge were sentenced 47 percent less than the national average. Jackson also sentenced the production of child porn 35 percent less than the national average.

In fact, in every single child pornography case she heard, Jackson sentenced the defendant below the sentencing guidelines.

They probably meant first black woman as SCJ, but then again, they aren’t biologists.

Not being a biologist, she can't know whether she's a man or a woman, right?

Very young people, innocently (because their K-12 education was denuded of substance) ignorant of wide swathes of U.S. history, and less innocently (because they spent their college years tightly wrapped in an ideological cocoon) ignorant of significant sectors of U.S. present, are at the helm of most companies’ sociall media efforts, including major media companies.

Racial or ethnic pride is the opposte of humility and it blocks us from knowing God.

Maybe it said that until they were caught. The title now says “first Black female”.

Tell a big enough lie often enough and soon it becomes truth.

She is the first black justice who doesn’t know the difference between a man and a woman.

She couldn’t possibly choose a lesbian partner. She might accidentally choose a man, since she is not a biologist. 😀😂

By the way, I was hoping that Marsha Blackburn’s next line would be, like, ok, since you are not a biologist, would I be correct in assuming you are also not a meteorologist, but could you go outside, and tell me if it’s raining?
