Rolling Stone: We Need To Cancel Olivia Benson. It's VIP, so you only get to see some of it, but that's enough.
Media progressives have really been working themselves into a frenzy over television shows about police recently. I wrote about one entry in this mini-genre last week and this week even an animated puppy became part of the discussion. But there are many more of these pieces that you may not have seen.

One thing this demonstrates about wokeness is that it’s often very competitive. If one person says cancel this bad cop show, someone else will top that with a demand to cancel all the cop shows. That’s how you quickly get to the place where people are semi-seriously suggesting the cop/dog character on a kids show needs to be put to sleep. But where do you go from there?
Today Rolling Stone has answered the call by singling out the one show that even people on the left have long said was good: Law & Order: SVU.
