Joy Reid misleads with uncorrected version of Washington Post article on DeSantis' education law
Fox News
MSNBC host Joy Reid condemned Gov. Ron DeSantis’ education law on Tuesday using a Washington Post article that the paper was later forced to correct with additional context.
"Washington Post is reporting today that school officials in at least two Florida counties, Manatee and Duval, have directed teachers this month to remove or wrap up their own classroom libraries until the books are vetted for appropriateness under state law. Teachers who display or give a student a book deemed unallowed could face up to five years in prison," Reid said. Lindsay Kornick is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.

She insisted, "You heard that right. Five years in prison for handing a child a book. And in case you’re wondering what falls under the umbrella of inappropriate for school children by Florida standards, activist Brandon Wolf points out that one of the books rejected by Duval County schools is ‘The Life of Rosa Parks.'"
