Charles Blow: Don't Allow Trump On TV To Air Birther Views
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/11/2011 5:16:36 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Donald Trump might be off base with his birther views. But does that mean he shouldn't be allowed on TV to express them? Yes--according to Charles Blow of the New York Times.

Blow asserted it was wrong to give Trump air time on the birther issue because "we [the MSM] know that this is not true."

People from the NYT should not be given airtime: what they say, is not true.

He’s being a “good little communist”.

I would expect no less from anyone on the left. You would be hard pressed to find ANY leftist that would, in his heart of hearts, think it would be OK to “allow” air time for viewpoints that oppose the leftist agenda.

A "behind the scenes" view at the Blow house.


At the end of the day (now)
no matter how much the MSM defends the Impostor,
America DEMANDS the birth certificate.

Work this into any conversation you have about the eligibility issue:

“...the unsubstantiated claim that he was born in the USA and is eligible for president...”

What happened to the old "fairness doctrine" the NYT was so freakin' crazy about a few months ago?

Oh, I forgot. The democrats are the "one way street" party.

That Blow job reporter is hung up in yesteryear...no one is listening to the MSM anyway, but liberals and old people out in the sticks without cable access.

The MSM now resides on the median, in the middle of the highway, with traffic zooming by on both sides. Who needs them. We have the internet - where one viral email can reach more people in a day than the msm can all week...and be taken more seriously.

The news about the Donald will get out and there is nothing that blowjob and the NYT can do to stop it...hell, they're treading water to pay their own rent.

Trumps birther campaign is like snakes on a plane...everyone has their feet up in the air.

I wonder if Chucky were to have a child and they named it ‘’me’’, would the poor child have issues in school.

MSNBC and CNN had interviews over the phone with Mr. Trump as did Newsmax. Fox let him on O’Reilly. Not sure if he got facetime on ABC or CBS news. Anyone?

Donald Trump might be off base with his birther views.

What's "off base" about demanding to see something that's Constitutionally required??

Is the Constitution itself "off base??"

Should not these bleeding hearts at the NYT cry out for Obama to release his records and give the million+ dollars (Barry is spending to keep the past “hidden) to more worthy causes like feeding the poor or aid to the suffering children around the world?

Obama has nothing to hide anyway. The many self-righteous totalitarians for the poor should be crucifying all the $$$ being stolen from the down trodden and giving to that fat cat lawyer firm wasting all that $$$ on keeping "hope and change" hidden.

My point was that even if Trump is wrong, he shouldn’t be banned from expressing his views.
