Stop the alt-right at the grocery store

I object to the assault of alt-right lies I encounter in the checkout aisle at my grocery store. “The Globe” and “The Enquirer” publish lies about Clinton, Obama, women and people of color on a regular basis.

Please join me in asking the stores to either place a cover over the fake news or put them out of view. As the infamous Nazi Goebbels said “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”
