Colorado GOP Expels Veteran Reporter, Sparks Bipartisan Outrage

The expulsion of Sandra Fish from a GOP event in Colorado has led to widespread criticism across political lines, emphasizing concerns over press freedom.

The Colorado Republican Party expelled veteran journalist Sandra Fish from its assembly, citing 'unfair' reporting, a move that drew backlash from both political parties and journalists.
Colorado GOP Chairman Dave Williams defended the expulsion, labeling Fish a 'fake journalist' and accusing her publication of bias, without providing examples.
The incident has influenced political endorsements, with the state GOP endorsing Rep. Lauren Boebert after criticism of Fish's removal was linked to her primary opponent.
Lawmakers and journalists have condemned the action as an attack on press freedom, with some calling it a 'dangerous' precedent for democracy.
Despite the expulsion, Fish remains committed to covering political events and emphasizes the importance of press access to democratic processes.
