Maine: Sinclair Affiliate Stokes Moral Panic Over Hospital Targeted by Libs of Tik Tok

via Alec Schemmel and Julian Baron on the website for Fox23 Maine, a Sinclair-owned local Fox and ABC affiliate.

This story covers a hospital in Maine whose gender clinic attracted the attention of the extremist Twitter account Libs of Tik Tok (LoTT), whose posts have been accused of inciting bomb threats against Boston Children’s Hospital. The reporting relies primarily on posts from LoTT, and a post that includes a graphic depiction of tucking (which is a transgender practice where… uh… well it’s as it sounds) is embedded within the article text. Sinclair is a telecommnications conglomerate which pushes conservative opinion onto numerous local television channels nationwide.
