Title: CNN’s Bizarre Blackout On Democrats’ Farrakhan Scandal
Post by: Lucifer on March 11, 2018, 06:27:23 AM

Quote
CNN has refused to inform its audience of a growing scandal tying prominent Democratic politicians and activists to Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, a notorious racist and anti-Semite.

At least eight Democrats are known to have met with Farrakhan, who routinely calls Jews “satanic” and has said that white people “deserve to die.”

Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison, the deputy chair of the Democratic National Committee, misled the public for years about his relationship with Farrakhan, new reporting has shown and The Washington Post has acknowledged.

The entire news industry seems intent upon accepting and hiding the outright fascist, racist and hateful democrat party.

I could only imagine what the MSM and the dims would do if the President was associating with an individual who called jewish people the "satanic jews" and made references to a race of people that "should die".   The mouth foaming 24 hour hour "breaking news" coverage would be non stop with howls of "resign now!"

Since they either are, largely anti-semitic themselves, or are, largely, self-hating jews they don't see a problem with this, Farrakhan also has the benefit of his association to the civil rights movement so like Elijah Cummings, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson Sr., etc., they have a fairly high level of immunity from scandal being viewed as fellow travellers at best, house negroes at worst.

The Left is and has always been the real home of political racism in the US.

What's funny(funny, strange not haha), the jews as a voting block support mostly Dem candidates. Very weird. Those who are most individualists voting for the state control means. As if they didn't learn that lesson well enough?

I would offer that American Jews are far different than those in Israel.

Hmmm, not sure what Israel has to do with this thread - but, ok.

The OP posts a blurb about an anti-semite right here in good ole USA. I make a comment about the Jews mostly supporting Dems(which is the party of this particular anti-semite). With a reference to the holocaust, and the Jews not learning their lesson about trust in a central authority(liberal US govt).

I guess I'm not sure what Israeli jews have to do with the statement I made. Meh

Many American Jews have a Bolshevik (Communst) culture as many are Russian or Eastern European Jews.  It is confusing considering their embrace of business.  It is certainly a cultural thing that I have not received a good answer from my Jewish frends, nor any publications.  It seems to be a Jewish cultiural secret.  When I ask them, they all say "we just want to give back".  Well donate to charities then, don't force more taxes, and big government solutions for everything.  It really pisses me off.

Calypso Louis doesn’t just speak about US Jews. Most anti-semites look at Jews as a worldwide issue, not a localized one. Just look at Henning’s rants about the Rothchilds.

Yeah, that's relatively true. It's still strange(not funny) that they would embrace this kind of platform. Still don't understand(and don't care anymore) what this had to do with Israeli jews. Meh

Ok, I am curious now - what actually IS the Farrakhan scandal?  It isn't being covered on Fox either.

I read the link above which accuses Farrakhan of being a bigot and a racist.  That isn't news. I read that some Dems will not call him on it. That isn't news either, we have know that for a long time.

To me this feels like you are accusing Bill Clinton of being - gasp - a mysognist! 

Yawn. Fake outrage on old stuff. You guys are being played and you cannot...refuse...to even see how.

 So a group of radical progressives that hold public office are openly associating with a man who hates Jews, hates white people and has an admiration for Hitler, among other things, and we're not to think anything of it?

 Wow.

 So if a picture surfaced tomorrow of the President with David Duke, and then it's revealed that several GOP congressmen are openly associating with Duke, what do you think would happen?  Think the media would ignore it?  Think the dims in congress would give it a pass?

 I mean, after all, we know David Duke is a racist and a bigot. That isn't news either.

 It's not about being played, but it does show the absolute hypocrisy of the left and its MSM.

So then Fox is in on it too?  I mean the whole not reporting that there is nothing new about Dems, Farrakhan or David Duke?  The non reporting of non news?

You express outrage and condemnation at CNN, is your outrage equally shared over Fox not talking about too?  Or did you not think that far ahead, you just went with the simple emotional appeal?

I think the Farrakhan scandal just devolves to the media giving a pass to an outright race-baiting, jew-hating muslim, while dissecting anyone on the conservative side with the finest of anal probes. I saw an article linked from yahoo a few days ago about the first-daughter's shoe problem. Seriously, if Salon has an issue with Ivanka shoes, and doesn't have a problem with our national leaders meeting and listening to a self-proclaimed anti-semite, it seems to me that we have a surreal problem with our media focus.

Why would you infer that because they aren't talking about something that has been going on for decades, that they don't have a problem with it?

Do you think there is a single person in the US who doesn't know that Farrakhan is a racist?  The man betrays it every time he opens his mouth.  But so did Jesse Jackson, so does Al Sharpton and many other black leaders.  You aren't complaining about CNN or Fox not reporting about Dems meeting with them? 

Non news.  Fake outrage.  Yawn.

I don't mention a lot of things, which doesn't automatically imply that I"m not concerned about them. If I need to list all my concerns, we'll be here a while. The case I stated, and the case others are making is that ALL media does not treat the left and right the same. If your question was not rhetorical, then yes - I think there are a lot of people who don't know that the guy is a race-baiting, jew-hating scum. There are many who look up to him, and praise his stance. Some of those people are low-information left-wing prog morons. Many can't read, and won't do any investigation. All they know, all they get is a feed from Madcow, and CNN. If neither of those outlets, much less Fox are interested in digging in to his involvement in their chosen candidate, but they are interested in how Melania got dissed by BO's wife - well, that's a problem. Unless of course one does want bias in their reporting.

You’re the one that threw Fox into the mix, not me.  I cut the cable at my house and don’t engage the MSM unless I’m stuck somewhere on the road, and even that is brief. 

Like many things here you’ve missed the real point of the article.

No, I got the point.  The real point was to stir up the right by vilifying CNN for not doing something nobody is doing, including Fox.  Yes, I injected Fox into the argument because it was needed for a counterpoint.  I could also have injected the NY Times, Washington Post, HuffPo, BS-NBC, TheBlaze and any number of other media outlets that aren't talking about it. 

Nobody is talking about it because it is non-news. 

Sounds like you've taken to getting your news from partisan sources, which is almost certain to mislead you.  You should cross check what you get by getting news from all angles.

I’m not arguing with you, but I think it’s telling that just about the only conservative counterpoint to the MSM is FOX. If they don’t carry an item that is positive for the R’s, then it must not be true.

It is so cute that our resident, pussy, hidden progressive is trying to throw FOXNEWS under the bus with zero credibility.

This will be hard for you, because you pretend that you need a link before you have permission to discuss things, but FOXNEWS covered it weeks ago when the photo surfaced. I realize that your closed, pathetic, progressive mind can't grasp this, but I didn't look for a link before watching the news and seeing the coverage.

Barely news, barely news, gossip, not news, commentary news, news, scandalous news, etc.  These were all things that happened, something changed.

Farrakhan STILL advising congresscritters...not a change.

BTW, when did Farrakhan get in bed with the skinheads?  Did you really mean "Nazi" sympathizer, as in "wants to kill black people and jews"?

 I get my news from several sources each day.  And I intentionally ignore the mouth foaming rabid msm types due to their constant narrative pushing.    And I do read sources from the left, even as ridiculous as they get. 

 I posted the article because it shows the absolute hypocrisy of the alt left progressives, let alone their projection.
