ποΈ Your miniSCOOP Report:
Inspired by the those who turned to us post-election and shared that relationships have become frayed or severed by the current political environment.So we decided to present a possible solution ... just in time for Thanksgiving: We called a family meeting.
In the first annual SmartHER News Family Meeting, we address the tough topics head on - taking your questions on president-elect Trump and crime, abortion, gay marriage and beyond - carefully dissecting the issues at play so you can see the news clearly.We report about what to know, why it matters and share some needed insight about the different angles to these hot-button issues.
