Patricia Heaton Critiques Media Fear-Mongering

Actress Patricia Heaton criticized media 'extremists' for fear-mongering and misrepresenting the impact of President-elect Trump's victory, particularly on vulnerable voters, especially women. In a widely viewed video, she expressed dismay at how pundits manipulated emotions, urging them to reassure those feeling threatened and to stop labeling dissenters as 'uneducated.' Heaton condemned the emotional reactions of some women, who have been sharing their fears about losing rights, and called for compassion and prayer rather than panic. She emphasized that faith should not be placed in political ideologies but rather in a higher purpose, referencing her recent visit to Israel amidst ongoing conflict. Heaton's remarks come as part of her ongoing critique of societal responses to political changes and the media's role in shaping public perception.
