Isn’t it funny how all these mainstream media “mistakes” run in exactly the same direction. They never, ever seem to make a mistake that falsely portray Muslims as perpetrators and non-Muslims as victims. The Washington Post did the same thing as the Atlanta Journal-Constitution does here. This kind of thing shows how the state press keeps the lemmings in line.
“Atlanta Journal-Constitution Falsely Claims Detroit Muslim ‘Targeted Muslims,’” by Warner Todd Huston, Breitbart, February 19, 2015:
On Tuesday news went national of a Muslim man who was arrested in Detroit for stabbing two non-Muslims at a bus stop after asking their religion. But the next day the Atlanta Journal-Constitution falsely claimed that the “attacker targeted Muslims” when in fact it was a Muslim who targeted two non-Muslims.
This false headline appears in the February 18 hard copy issue of the AJC–but not on the Internet. It was on page A6 in a section titled “In Brief” where the AJC posted a single paragraph brief on the arrest of Terrence Lavaron Thomas, the Michigan man who was accused of accosting two strangers at a Detroit bus stop. Thomas was arrested for stabbing the two after demanding they tell him if they were Muslims and then finding out they were not.
While the AJC had the correct facts in its short story, it’s [sic] headline was 180 degrees out of phase, saying, “Attacker allegedly targeted Muslims.”
This, of course, is entirely backwards. It was a Muslim who targeted non-Muslims….
AJC - the south’s version of affirmative action.
This is why news liars are so insidious.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has been nominated for The Brian Williams Award again this year.
Nidal Hassan was a christian yelling Praise Jesus while Gunning down no one but the muslims at Ft. hood that one day......
Well According to Obummer’s new revised history...
The media is always ready to lie to protect the Big Guy.
Deport the lying little %^#$%@$#!
His dead carcass. Deport his dead carcass, along with the bones and leftovers of our latest pig roast.
Anyone who knows the AJC knows full well they would never have a headline like Muslim Attacks Non Muslims. It wont happen.
Seems the msm is also the taqiyya media.
Detroit has a rather high percentage of blacks so I think it's safe to speculate that the victims are black.
I bring this up because it has long been known that Mooselimbs despise dark-skinned blacks.
Just wondering.
Maybe he was looking for Muslims to not stab?
If Jihad Watch is going to report this stuff .Do it right .Have their reporter, in this case Robert Spencer, seek the publications explanations (call em up) also identify not only the reporter but the editor and post their pictures in their report.
The AJC is a pinko commie rag. We use it to start the fireplace up.
The AJC only hires graduates from the Goebbels School of Journalism.
BUT, the conventional wisdom (that is, Big Media) propaganda is that Islam is a religion of peace. None of the Big Media is concerned that Muslims are killing other Muslims in greater numbers than Christians and Jews. Where is this “peace” you MSM types keep babbling about that’s part of Islam? All I see is a group of psychotic murderers, but I’m not “nuanced” enough.
