These are environmental justice concerns, even though the coverage elided the term. Right-wing media had spent years dismissing, mocking, or racializing environmental justice as a concept. They attacked Biden-era climate and environmental justice provisions and cheered rollbacks of environmental and public health protections, helping the Trump administration recast environmental justice funding as waste, corruption, or left-wing patronage. These outlets did not connect those complaints to the same environmental justice demands Black communities and organizers were already making elsewhere. Amid growing opposition, some right-wing media figures have shifted their scrutiny from data center developers to the people and communities opposing them.
