Wait–Did The Left Force This NYT Reporter To Retract Her Remarks On Antifa In Charlottesville?

So, did the progressive social media mob force a New York Times reporter to retract her statements about the left wing Antifa crowd that showed up in Charlottesville over the weekend? White nationalists descended into the city to protest the removal of a Robert E. Lee statue. The day was marked with scores of people injured in skirmishes between the far right and far left. One person was killed when a 20-year-old Ohio man named James Alex Fields, Jr. plowed into counter protesters. He injured an additional 19 people in the attack. The only thing Sheryl Gay Stolberg noted was that the far left was just as “hate-filled” as the white nationalists who showed up

She was in the ladies restroom when the talking points were passed out.

To the degree the Leftists are thugs and love tyranny, yes.

So I would say it is almost certain that the Left forced this NYT reporter to retract her remarks on Antifa in Charlottesville

I was pleasantly surprised by President Trump’s press conference yesterday!

Yes. Her immediate observations were in biased and honest.

She was shamed and had to do a self correction.

It’s insidious.

We must be living under Pol Pot.

Our Country Has Gone Over The Edge!


You’re just now figuring that out?

I bought my small farm in Kentucky two weeks before the 2008 election partly because of this nonsense. I moved there in 2011. I lived in Seattle for 45 years until then.

I’d be beside myself now, based on what has gone on the last six years, if I was still in Seattle. The Lord guided us here. And as incredibly desirable as the 12 acres is, our neighbor moved away and sold us the 20 acres right next to it two years later. :)

It’s a great bug out location for a family compound, but it is paradise in the meantime. :)

They’re not progressive and they’re not liberal...they’re subversive and seditionists.

Me too. I love it. Trump didn't go as far as I'd like but he's standing up to the DULL Media (Delusional Lying Leftist Media).

The REAL truth is the DULL Media is giving a pass to Leftist thuggery while Trump condemns thuggery on both sides.

The REAL story here and one Trump should pummel the DULL Media with is their giving a pass to Leftist thuggery.

I’m surprised at all the nonsense that has transpired around this. There was nothing wrong with President Trump’s original statement!

Exactly why the Lying Left is attacking him. The Left hates the truth and will always attack the truth because lies are how they intend to win this war for the soul of America.

I was happy to see it as well, though I don’t think he should have condemned the driver of the car - we don’t know yet how that will be adjudicated. Any juror that faintly remembers the beating (on camera) of trucker Reginal Denny in the LA riot will acquit him.

I also wish Trump would have railed against USSR flags being used in rallies in this country today, with no mention of the millions of murders perpetrated under that rag.

He needs to simply state the media and the rent-a-mob have the same employers.
