CNN, MSNBC Bury Biden's 'Junkie' Blast at Black Journalist
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/06/2020 8:05:51 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Imagine an angry President Trump asking a black journalist if he's a "junkie." Now imagine the liberal media's Breaking News, 24/7 coverage of the incident, complete with calls for his resignation, cries about racist stereotyping, etc. Who knows: the MSM might even have managed to spark a new round of riots.

But it wasn't President Trump who had made the insulting suggestion. Rather, an angry Joe Biden yesterday asked a black journalist if he were a "junkie," after imagining him being subjected to a test for "cocaine." So, naturally, the opening hour of MSNBC's Morning Joe, and CNN's New Day . . . made absolutely no mention of the incident.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

If President Trump had asked a black journalist if he was a “junkie,” the liberal media would be playing it on a non-stop loop.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Good ole Joe is determined to lose the black vote or at least make them stay at home.
We've got to do everything we can to help him in that regard.

“I am very willing to let the American public judge my personal and mental fil– my physical as well as my mental fil– my fitness and to make a judgment about who I am,” he said.

If parts of that interview aren’t made into campaign commercials the Trump camp is missing a golden opportunity.

That statement alone would be enough to sink a Republican candidate.

They should ask him to spell potato.

Wow! Looks like the liberal media buried that one, too.

They are following the elephant, or in this case the donkey, in the parade, picking up his droppings.

And 25 years ago the mainstream media could have sucessfully done just that, but with social media and the internet it was all over cyberspace 15 minutes of him saying it.

It’s getting ridiculous. They just showed a Portland riot video on Fox and didn’t show the protesters blocking the PD’s door with a board so that no one could come out. They also started a fire at the doors. They followed this with the video of the pick up dragging the motor bike and did not include the protester putting the bike in front of the truck.

Definitely.

His inability to get the word mental “fitness” out when he was trying to make the case for it was hilarious, and very telling.

When Joe Biden says something like this, he’s just “making a point.” If President Trump (or any prominent Republican) said this, it would be a “firestorm.”

So GOP has to pay for airtime with paid ads.
Then do it!

“Joe Biden said this to a black journalist....”

Otherwise, try going out today and asking any leftist (relative, friend, coworker, person outside, in or outside a grocery store....) their opinion about this story.

“Huh?” “What?” “Is that some kind of right wing nutjob talk radio rumor they made up?” “If that were actually true I would have seen it on CNN or in the NYT or WaPo. It’s fake.”

Notice that all videos on the Internet of this have dubbed the word “junkie” and replaced it with “jody” (or joanie?).

Going to be hard to hide this last one. ‘Hispanics unlike the black community are very diverse.’

It's one of those Laurel/Yanni things.

Normal people heard, "are you a junkie?" Biden supporters heard, "Top o' the mornin' to ye, lad. How are ye this glorious fine day?"

At some point, a group of loyal persons from underground will have to figure out a way to jam the signal of these outlets and broadcast the truth, similar to movies like "They Live" or "The Running Man".

It's really gotten to that stage.
