MSNBC was slapped hard by community notes on X after posting an interview with trans woman Artemis Langford who was sued by a sorority for peeping tom allegations.
The sorority sisters lost their lawsuit to have Langford removed.
“The case has drawn widespread attention as schools continue to be a front line in these fights for LGBTQ rights and for the very brave woman at the center of it all is joining me now,” host Yasmin Vossoughian said.
But the full story on Langford? Writer Gina Bontempo shared the scoop on X back in March.
“7 women are suing Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority at University of Wyoming for allowing a man to live at the sorority house, where he has access to shared shower facilities & allegedly sits in the common area watching the women. He once ‘had an erection visible through his leggings.'”

MSNBC tried to ignore these facts, but couldn’t slide by the community notes folks at X.
“The lawsuit alleges that he was watching the women undress and on at least one occasion was visibly erect while doing so.”
