In an interview with Salon, Rashad Robinson of Color Of Change admitted his organization's role in ousting Bill O'Reilly. If you're unfamiliar with Color Of Change, it's a black activist group co-founded by CNN pundit and former Obama aide, Van Jones. The group partnered with none other than David Brock's Media Matters to disseminate the contact information of O'Reilly Factor sponsors in an effort to have them drop their sponsorship. By creating a groundswell of fake outrage, Color Of Change was able to coerce Bill O'Reilly's sponsors into dropping support for his show and forcing Fox News to terminate his contract. These are the tactics being effectively used against conservatives by similar leftist groups across North America. Just over the past few months, we've seen sponsors terminate contracts en masse with Breitbart and Youtube due to outrage that was funded, manufactured and stoked by groups like Color Of Change.
Van Jones' employer, CNN, had an obvious heyday covering Bill O'Reilly's ouster. CNN pundits could barely contain their shadenfreude. Leftists on Twitter couldn't contain theirs either, as the Twitter-verse exploded with orgasmic celebrations and tweets about what a victory it was. To them, another conservative voice was silenced.
Since Donald Trump won, the left has been sharpening their swords and grooming their troops for battle in the trenches. They won't stop until we're all defeated. O'Reilly wasn't everyone's favourite, but he was an influential voice on the right. His show raked in an average of five million viewers a night, making him one of the most powerful talking heads on cable news. Now that he's gone, his time slot will likely succumb to MSNBC's All In With Chris Hayes, unless Fox finds a strong replacement.

I got vehemently attacked for saying that.

I don’t claim to know if the accusations are true or not. I suspect that at lest some of them may be women jumping on the bandwagon. But they wouldn’t need to be true for the likes of Soros and Jones to use them. If nothing exists, these people will happily manufacture it.
They’re progressives, after all.
