Accurately reporting that a black congresswoman has received racist calls and emails is not the same as accusing her of using race as a dividing card, nor is it an example of a reporter "making reckless assumptions." It's just doing our job. (7/7)

Contrary to what Rep. Hayes says now, our story made clear that she had not received any threats, and did not quote her using the word "racist," which she has singled out as a particular point of criticism. (4/7)

Rep. Hayes has accused the CT Mirror of driving a narrative that she is "using race as a dividing card," and "making reckless assumptions" in our reporting. None of these charges are true. (2/7)
