Media Plays Game With White Supremacy

When will the media press Biden on an apology from his party for supporting slavery, segregation, lynching, and the Klan?

The American Spectator "What in the world has gotten into Fox’s John Roberts?

"Thursday he badgered White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, saying this:

It was my wife, Kyra Phillips, of ABC, who asked him that question yesterday. And she said to him, “Do you denounce white supremacy?” And he — he got a little bit worked up at her about it. And — and said, “I denounced it, I’ve always denounced that.” But I don’t understand why he wouldn’t say, “I denounce white supremacy. I’ve always denounced white supremacy.” For some reason they’re not saying the word. And that’s what’s very puzzling.

"As Rush Limbaugh pointed out on his Thursday show, President Trump has done just that, bold print supplied:

RUSH: TIME magazine accurately reported Trump’s Charlottesville remarks.

This story is from August 14, 2017: “President Trump condemned the violent attack on a crowd of counterprotesters in Charlottesville, Va., that left one dead and 19 injured Saturday. Speaking from the Diplomatic Reception Room in the White House Monday afternoon, Trump said plainly that ‘racism is evil’ and that members of the Ku Klux Klan, neo Nazis and white supremacists are ‘repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.’ ”

"As the Annenberg Center for Public Policy pointed out, on yet another occasion, Trump said, bold print for emphasis supplied:

In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, and white supremacy. These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate has no place in America.

"Hello? Right there, John Roberts, is the president of the United States declaring in American English that “white supremacists are ‘repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans’ ” and in “one voice our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, and white supremacy.”

"What about these are not a denunciation of white supremacy?

"To be crystal clear, John Roberts is a superb journalist. But since he is asking the question here, I will ask this one. Has John Roberts denounced white supremacy ever? How about all his colleagues in the media? And if they did so today — what about tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow? And if they did so on Thursday but not on Friday does that mean they now support white supremacy?" . . .
