RNC Head DESTROYS ABC’s Raddatz on Media Ignoring Biden Rape Claim
newsbusters.org ^

Posted on 05/03/2020 10:28:05 AM PDT by Conserv

McDaniel wasn’t having any of Raddatz’s nonsense and hit back hard by calling out the blatant and “appalling” double standard:

I'm going to take issue with the media ignoring this. It has been appalling the hypocrisy, as to how Brett Kavanagh was treated versus Joe Biden. Brett Kavanaugh, every accuser was put on TV, it was wall-to-wall coverage. They went into his high school yearbook. They said he needed an FBI investigation. Michael Avenatti was on TV accusing him of gang rape, from an accuser who never ven met Brett Kavanaugh.

Going further, she pointed out that the double standard fell in Biden’s favor because of which party he was a part of. “And then you go to Joe Biden, five weeks of silence. 19 interviews without a single question,” McDaniel decried. “It from #MeToo, #MeToo, #MeToo to move on, move on, move on in a nanosecond because he's a Democrat.”

“And the hypocrisy is appalling and it’s not just from the Democrats, it’s from the media. And I'll tell you, I think any outlet that conducted those 19 interviews and didn't ask a single question should be disqualified from conducting any part of a presidential debate,” she added in a very serious tone.

The other part of Raddatz’s question was about why President Trump said he would “stick up for” Biden. McDaniel noted that it was because Republicans believed in due process under the law for all, a standard the Democrats and the media thought only applied to them.

“But they threw it out the window when it came to Brett Kavanagh. And so did the media. And the hypocrisy has been appalling. We need to do some self-reflection as to how Kavanaugh was treated versus how Biden is being treated right now,” she declared just before Raddatz ended the interview abruptly.

I’ve said before, Trump should (as the incumbent) insist on no debates. That means the media will demand Joe debate and fall right into the trap.

But the second thing Trump should insist on is that the news media be recused from the debates entirely. The questions should be asked alternatively from Tom Perez and Rona McDaniel. The media has proven they will not be fair. With the DNC and RNC chairs doing the questioning, at least they’ll be seen as partisan from the beginning.

I like your tagline, were you a student of the Latin language and Roman history as well?

I never actually studied Latin in school but I've lived long enough to have picked up a bit knowledge of it for appropriate situations. I appreciate your tagline too my FRiend, GMTA!

Fortunately no one is forced to look at her although she does pop up on occasion on the election night media meltdown compilations. The only time she is tolerable.

Not sure if it matters but someone on another thread said DC threw out almost all statute of limitations a couple of years ago.

And speaking of looks- she is either truly talented, has connections or is a 10 on the casting couch

Martha is 67 years old. My suspicion is her hair is younger. That's a tough gig at 67. My guess is she has connections.

well, when she got her start here she was Martha Bradlee. Her father in law was famous leftist editor and bum kisser of all Dem politicians, Ben Bradlee.

I was interviewed by her in the late 80s. She’s about 5’0 tall and had a permanent scowl on her face. Thankfully I haven’t watched Fake News in years so I never see the likes of her or fellow hags like Andrea Mitchell, Judy Woodruff, et al

But she tries so hard!

Here's darling Martha, apparently in the rarified air of, sniff-sniff, pre-show jitters.

She looks like she has been in a hatchet fight and everybody had a hatchet but her. That face would stop a runaway freight train dead in its tracks.

I don’t watch these programs because of the progressive and biased hosts. And then you have weak kneed Republicans that are not up to the task of defending, let alone attacking. Occasionally, I’ll take a peak at a thread like this just to see what’s going on. Today, I am pleasantly surprised. That was an outstanding, absolutely excellent performance.

I’ve now heard varying reports....several have said that digital penetration is indeed considered “rape” and a felony. So if the alleged assault is governed by DC Statutes, that type of felony assault would fall under a Statute that extends for 30 years...it allegedly occurred in 1993, giving Tara Reade three more years??? I’m not an attorney, I just play one to my family....LOL

I am so pleased to report that, having not watched any of the “C’s” networks now for 30 plus years, I had not ever heard of Raddatz until this posting.

That would be an excellent debate format. Thanks for posting.

Rape, yes. I remember reading about the crime of rape, in the UCMJ as a young sailor. Penetration, however slight, constitutes the offense.
