'This notion that Dr. Oz and the Republicans are amplifying that someone who has difficulty hearing is “unfit” is wrong and dangerous.' Read more of leximcmenamin's conversation with JohnFetterman about staring down ableism in politics. ⬇️
With the election just weeks away, Fetterman is hoping to cement that image of Oz in voters’ minds and blaze a path as a pro-worker, pro-marijuana decriminalization Democrat.asks Fetterman about staring down ableism in politics and the media, his social media strategy, and more.: Let’s start with the good stuff. You’ve been a social media spitfire for years.
Some of the biggest social media moments have been Dr. Oz and his team putting this stuff out there themselves.. They thought they had a great idea, they shot it, and the team was like, “Yep! That looks great, let’s post it!” Next thing they know, it has tens of millions of views, everyone in Pennsylvania knows what crudité is, and: There’s a hyperfixation on you being a “salt of the earth” Pennsylvanian in comparison with Oz’s.
As far as Oz’s “Lucille Bluthness,” as I’ve said, we like to have fun with the New Jersey thing or the rich guy thing, but it goes much deeper than that. Oz is not one of us, he is not a Pennsylvanian. He doesn’t understand the struggles that Pennsylvanians are going through. I’m from Pennsylvania. I love Pennsylvania. And I’ll fight for Pennsylvania in the Senate.
