Nevertheless, I don't see how 7.62 was "making" this story into propaganda via his comments. Do you think that the MSM is yearning for stories regarding possible racial harmony in the South?
No problem. We all do that sometimes.

Because, in my view, he was setting the thread up for people to start elevating this into something it is not, in the name of advancing an agenda OR to counter one they saw (and I understand the race-baiting examples he used and agree with him that they are reprehensible).
Do you think that the MSM is yearning for stories regarding possible racial harmony in the South?
Probably not. It does not gel with their desire to paint Southerners as ignorant, racist hicks. But here is the rub - trying to elevate this warming story into an "a-ha! See! See how NOT Racists we are! See the decendents of Slaves & Confederates holding hands!" is simply setting up the MSM to twist things to their liking.
Sometimes understatment is best. Consevatives are not SUPPOSED to notice race. Is that not what we rail against the left for doing all the time? Some people see color here. I see neighbors. Americans.
