Sharpton Shuts Down Republican Saying Hillary Lied About Benghazi
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Talk about an inconvenient truth . . . Don't know if we've ever witnessed such a blatant suppression of facts--even on MSNBC.

Republican strategist Jessica Proud was a guest this morning on Al Sharpton's MSNBC show, which has been turfed out of its weekday slot and relegated to the early Sunday-morning wilderness. When discussion turned to the Benghazi hearing, Proud pointed out that Hillary, Susan Rice and President Obama lied about the cause of the attack. But before Proud could make her case—based on emails Hillary sent acknowledging that the internet video was not the cause—Sharpton shut her down, saying "let's go to other news of the week" and opening a discussion of Joe Biden's decision not to run.

View the video here.

Sharpton Shuts Down Republican Saying Hillary Lied About Benghazi

Watch Sharpton silence a Republican about to prove an inconvenient truth. Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Republican strategist Jessica Proud going on Al Sharpton’s show?
Al Sharpton?
I suppose Republican strategist Jessica Proud was planning on dazzling Sharpton with her smile and intellectual brilliance.
No wonder the Republican brand is in trouble.

With all the money he has made exploiting blacks one would think he could do something about that face.

Maybe there’s a great deal of cash associated with being a guest on one of these shows. Otherwise what possible reason would anyone, especially a putative Republican have for going on this show? Or any MSNBC show?

Proud is of course far from a household name among Republican strategists. I’m sure from her perspective appearing on Sharpton’s show is a plus. She can add an MSNBC appearance to her resume. True, to conservatives that’s nothing to brag about, but some clients could be impressed.

Why would ANYBODY want to go and talk to Al Sharpton? He’s a hack and not a very good one at that...

NYC Mayor Blobbio consoles the Rev Al "Ebonics" Sharpton.

"Al, ignore the criticism. "

"BTW, I'm glad you had lap-band surgery. I like your lollipop head. But,
to be frank, your involuntary bowel movements are a (sniff) real problem."

I’d opt for brain cancer, but cancerous cells need nourishment.

Laz, it would also require a brain which Al has proven repeatedly he lacks.
