How did the media get duped — again — on the Bubba Wallace story?
NY Post ^ | June 23 2020 | John Ziegler

Here we go again…

As reliably as children being fooled by Santa Claus, the news media has once again been duped by an obviously false story that fit their favorite narrative about race. Last year, it was the Jussie Smollett fiasco, on which I was one of the first media commentators to call out as lacking credibility, today, in a very different but similar story, we have learned that, contrary to an enormous amount of media outrage and moralizing, black NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace was not the victim of a noose-related hate crime.

For those who have somehow missed it, over the weekend NASCAR dramatically and declaratively announced that Wallace had been the target of a “noose” found in his garage at the Talladega speedway in Alabama. This was just before a high-profile race on that track that took place on Monday.

Duped, they're complicit. The narrative is the most important thing not the truth.

I like how NASCAR cut off all the other “nooses” so they could claim Bubba Smollett was being targeted.

Gee my FAKE NEWS RADAR went off immediately. Did not read or listen to one story. I was right and like reporters never left my computer. Guess I am too smart as a 75 year old white guy for the cub reporters of today.

they didn’t get duped- they desperately wanted it to be racist- so they could cover it nonstop and ‘punish whitey’- they knew it likely wasn’t a racist incident, but ran with it anyways- like they always do-

On your knees, Wallace!

Sure took a dump on the formerly good Petty name. So much rich racing history sent right down the shitter.

THey are pretending they were duped. They knew what they were doing. They are working to inflame racial division and stoke protests riots because they want to portray President Trump as hopeless divisive and they REALLY want to distract from the exposure of the COUP they’ve been conducting in tandem with our traitors in government. ANYTHING to take attention off the information surfacing in D.C.

Someone is targeting the PGA Masters tournament now.

Let's see if the MSM draws their line in the sand there. There are too many international players to make an American racism case in professional golf, and too many corporate interests to allow the left to mess with it.

I bought a loaf of bread today and when I got it home I found a tiny metal noose twisted around and holding the bag closed. I’m suddenly seeing nooses everywhere...

Duped? They’re scumbag enemies of the people and they knew it was a lie like the rest of us.

The best thing about Trump is that he has done more than any force to demolish the credibility of the leftist media scum.

No one seems to be happy that a hate crime was not committed. They are still angry. Hey, it could have happened that is the important thing cuz white people are racist.
