...the paper committed a colossal math blunder vastly understating the city’s crime rate.

Any chance that it was a *lie* rather than a "blunder"?

EVERY mainstream press outlet is FAKE! If they print the truth they will get fired!

Math is not a friend of liberals.

One good example is the gubmit’s elimination of racial categories in the Chicago crime statistics.

If they state the truth, one finds that 1) the Chicago police are extraordinarily not violent when it comes to handling the perps, and 2) the majority of the perps are from certain areas which are inhabited by folks of certain cultures.

“Error” in John Lewis’s favor and a very quiet correction later.

SOP for Fake News Media

You mean defending “Stockholm Syndrome John Lewis>

He joined and supported the Democrats who persecuted him on the bridge in 1965.

Math is hard.

How many editors does it take to edit an article from Atlanta Journal-Constitution ?

First of all...John Lewis is not loved throughout the USA!!! In fact, his little cute ploy is going to help destroy the Democrat Party come the MId Term elections of 2018!!! He has pulled the dumbest stunt that any Obamabot idiot could ever flip out, publicly.

Proof in the pudding....Senator, Cory Booker will be attending the Trump POTUS swear-in ceremony on this coming Friday!!! Booker is not-too-bright, but he is smart enough to know...that anyone that wants a meaningful life in politics, should never pass up attending the change over of POTUS administrations!!! Lewis, dumb butt that he...has destoyed his own history, hating racist, that he is!!! I love it!!! LMAO!!!

Is this the topic Bill O’Reilly commented on during his show, agreeing with the liberal paper and sounding offended about Trump’s behavior?

Not being a watcher of the real-life Ted Baxter, I would have missed it.

Every time I set eyes upon John Lewis, I know my 4 year old dog has great intellect than this dude has.

His mouth, mannerisms, and wisdom represent the worst part of his filthy district.

Yes but conservative sites are stepping up to the plate to expose the left leaning sites. No I do not expect the left leaning sites to correct themselves, unless it is weeks later and very quietly.

I aspire to the same. However, occasional TV’s in public locations running in public places present the opportunity to flip through the channels.

It could be that my goal on this thread to spotlight O’Reilly’s strong allegiance to the establishment and to nevertrumpism is futile, given the likelihood that only you and I will notice it. Anyway, I’m pretty sure he yet again showed his true colors with this one.

I wonder the most call of illegitimate things in Lewis’ District knows about bastards.

I haven’t read the whole thread, so this may already have been said, but look into the statistics of the average age of a grandmother in Atlanta’s public housing. Nuff said.
