Last Thursday, Vanity Fair published an article written by Nancy Jo Sales titled, “‘They Say We’re White Supremacists’: Inside the Strange World of Conservative College Women.” Over a series of months, 54-year-old Sales pretended to befriend four conservative women at UNC-Chapel Hill, treated them to dinner and even gifted them signed copies of her book "American Girls: Social Media and the Secret Life of Teenagers," a depiction of the psychological dangers from online harassment. A mother to a college-aged daughter herself, she acted as their advocate with a desire to highlight their experiences as young female conservatives. The four students participated in hours of interviews, hoping to promote civil political discourse. Textual evidence confirms Sales agreed to run the women’s featured quotes by them before the article’s release, but no such promise was kept.
