Good for them. It’s a credibility builder when you can admit you were wrong about something.

Southern Poverty Law Center will not be as honest.

Maybe donors to the ADL were threatening a revolt?

OMG!!! They “backed down”???

I have never, ever heard of them failing to pile on to whatever their first impression was. Relentlessly.

Never seen that before, and I mean in many dozens of years.

I wish Trump would find a way to destroy the SPLC. They are truly an enemy of America.

I’m sure any lsm outlet that painted Bannon as such will be forthcoming in printing retraction or making statements to make ammends. Print-——Section C, page 8, bottom right corner in #8 font. Video/TV, 0330 with a 10 second sound bite squeezed in during an infomercial. It’s what they do.

In a sane world, the SPLC would be considered a hate group.

All fine and dandy, they put it on their website that will be read by maybe a 100k people.

The original accusation is in the minds of the people who heard it on the MSMABCNNBCBSFOX news casts. They won’t hear the retraction because the MSM won’t report it................................

Their credibility dropped by several orders of magnitude in my eyes. And it had already eroded considerably over the years. They’ve just become another outlet for left wing advocacy, and do little for their declared mission.

Trump is showing how to fight the Left. Confront them. Make them prove what they claim...if they can.

The ADL has almost always been a responsible group. SPLC is no more than a Marxist hate group.
