Breitbart to NY Times Reporter for Alleging CPAC Racism: 'You’re a Despicable Human Being'
Newsbusters ^ | February 19, 2010 | Jeff Poor

After Barack Obama's election as the first black president of the United States, we were supposed to have entered a new, post-racial era. However, as many feel it has turned out, any dissent or criticism of the most powerful man in the free world or his agenda draws allegations of "racial tones," as happened on the New York Times Web site on Feb. 18.

And on Feb. 18 at the 2010 Conservative Political Action Conference, Andrew Breitbart, publisher of Breitbart.com, Breitbart.tv, Big Hollywood, Big Government and Big Journalism, called out the Times' reporter, Kate Zernike, for making those allegations. (6:00 in first video)

Breitbart was accepting the Reed Irvine Accuracy in Media Award for extensively covering one of the most "uncovered" stories of 2009 for corruption within the so-called community activist organization ACORN.

Don’t you just love it when kooky white people on the left throw the race card? The good thing about it is, they are wearing that ba**ard out.

All of a sudden the NY Times has a problem with speaking truth to power?

“He then mocked what he described, with a Chris Rock voice, as ‘diversity,’ including, he said, college classes on ‘cyber feminism’ and ‘what it means to be a feminist new black man.’”

Breitbart explained it wasn’t a special persona Mattera was putting on for his audience, but his true personality.

“It goes into that does not express that he used a racial stereotype,” Breitbart said. “It is just built upon a bed of lies. It said that he went into a Chris Rock voice. She’s the one that correlated his voice to Chris Rock. He happens to be from Brooklyn. He’s using his voice.”

Okay, I’m confused by this article. Did Mattera use a “black voice” when talking about being a feminist blackman?

Anyone know where there might be some audio of this? Because I don’t know how anyone could confuse a Brooklynn accent for either Chris Rock or a black accent. Is Mattera black?

I want to do an animation/cartoon strip that goes like this

* Elephant & ass are playing cards.
* Elephant plays a card, labelled “economy”, with big dollar sign.
* ass plays card just labelled “race”.
* Elephant plays card, labelled “national security”.
* ass plays card just labelled “race”.
* Elephant plays card, labelled “American exceptionalism”.
* ass plays card just labelled “race”.

I "heart" Breitbart - truly a great American. Every "journalism" student should watch those 2 videos but that will never happen.

Viva new media!

The MSM exists in a giant iron globe along with the rest of the liberal/progressives. Everything they believe and espouse echos within it. Nothing penetrates from the outside. What they are saying is heard more and more dimly as reality intrudes.

Let them continue to decline in their reverie.

I am confident that wiser minds will prevail.

That would be funny mocked up like a celebrity poker tournament. The announcers could say something like “Wow the Dem Donkey won again with the race card! Who could have seen that coming!?”

And I’ll bet Kate Zernike has more actual “racism” in her little hypocritical mind than anyone attending CPAC

Kate Zernike is the woman/NYT POS supposed writer who did a front page hatchet job on the Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth About John Kerry.

She was a hack book reviewer or something like that who was brought out of the closet to put on the hit.

The Bitch never was in Nam like the rest of us. She’s blowing so much smoke out her ass that you’d think that she was the evil twin of Mt. St. Helens.

Or....Bretibart is the new, “Half-black”, or “Half-white”.

Why is 0bama not referred to as a “Multi-racial?” Did he not yet fill out his AcornSponsered Census form?

Or, better yet, multi-RADICAL.

just a thought.
