The Spin
Left narrative
Individuals like Musk and Murdoch have no business being near any award named after Ginsburg. But it's no surprise Opperman, a Republican donor, attempted to bestow the award on two sharers of her political views. The foundation and the award have lost all legitimacy.
Right narrative
This award has always been apolitical, but because of the unfounded rhetoric of the Ginsburg family and left-leaning pundits, it now features exclusion. There's no reason why this award couldn't expand to include men and people with different political views. Cancel culture has struck again.
