A CNN newscaster came through Monday with a full apology for an on-air gaffe after her previous explanation failed to satisfy critics.
Fredricka Whitfield had described James Boulware’s assault on Dallas police headquarters Saturday as “very courageous and brave, if not crazy as well.”

In the worst case scenario, she thought the gunman was black, and she was basically cheering him on to kill white cops.
Come on, we know many hate us. My niece works with a bunch of obama’s daughters and sons. One thought slavery still existed in 1930. They all love the phrase “white privilege” and even the white kids use the term. They hate themselves for being white and i dont get it.
After the National Divorce they’ll be talking to the wind.
Remember what i said about little Hitlers waiting for their chance to rule?
Yes. It’s terrifying. The nation is boiling and it is not good. The lefist fascists have too many allies in the media to count.
Huh? The media are a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Left, including 80% of Fox News.
Just to add:
Most of the media is simply not very intelligent. And I mean that in the Derp! sense. They went to J school because they are SJW types, but a J school degree is where you go when the African Lesbian studies classes fill up.
I worked with two reporters that were Classic examples. The girls assigned the political beat was clueless as to basic Civics 101 and I regularly had to kick back or rewrite articles in which agenda substituted for the most basic facts of law and governing procedures.
The other was an H1B assigned to the educational beat that believed American classrooms went under some amalgamation of European policy. There too required numerous and regular rewrites/kickbacks.
And both had seven fits when forced to report correct information as a matter of personal pride and as a matter of being upset that their glowing praises were turned into clinical assessments.
Agenda + stupidity = American media.
How do you fight that? They have brainwashed an entire generation. We may be able to cancel out their votes now, but when we are gone, the country is toast.
I’m 47 and all of my friends are conservative.
But the under 30’s, bah.
We could grab the libertarians with talk of killing the IRS and other agencies, which Cruz wants to do.
Whoever wrote that should get rich selling it on T shirts and wall art. Perfect/accurate assessment.
That’s great! I’m gonna pass that one on.
I hit every check off point on the conservative side, except positive attitude. I get despondent easily and am a nervous wreck about things lol.
Other than that, i’m conservative.
Actually having a negative attitude is a good thing in moderation. It removes rose colored glasses like nothing else.
It’s a strength, not a weakness.
Thanks. But it goes into too far territory sometimes. And then the most UnConserative thing happens. Self pity. Even at 47 I am working on changing it :)
But you are right. Rose colored glasses can be very dangerous.
Fiance saw a house and loved it. I went to see it and saw so many things wrong it was out of the question to buy it. She cried, there’s a shock lol. But she came around and understood.
Civil indifference is not enough to stop Obillary. At a minimum, a strong dislike for them is essential in order to bring these bad actors to another stage in their careers.
Balance in all things young Jedi (he said a couple months shy of 50 himself ;)
There is something else to consider as well and I get in arguments on FR all the time over it. (Which is odd since I’m universally loved for my unconfrontational nature...) Being realistic and being negative aren’t the same unit. Reality 1n 2015 is a VERY negative place to be. To spin it otherwise is just that. Spin. Spin isn’t conservative, nor is it reality based. Pretending it’s a Taylor Swift video only complicates the problems.
Today, negativity is a virtue for the reason mentioned earlier. But yes, it has to be with a positive outcome in mind. And worked toward.
Yup. And that steps on the toes of “Civil indifference” AKA “Lesser Evil”. Which is why the sheepish bleating gets so loud anytime someone tries or proposes actual conservatism.
Stockholm Syndrome
Someone on The Five said she probably should have used “brazen,” (that is assuming she knows what the word means).
She did use ‘brazen’. She was very brazen in her newscast and would continue to be so had she not been forced to retract.
Brazen is what liberals are as a people.
As to Brazen in context, that would imply a negative for the nutcase’s actions against the cops. So she used exactly the words she intended and wanted to in order to forward the agenda. People need to understand the contempt of the left. And Fox is very much of the left. So naturally they throw her a lifeline.
Think Hitler Youth. The earlier they can brainwash them, the longer it will stay with them.
