On CNN, Marc Lamont Hill Defends Melissa Harris-Perry, says Romney's Family Photo Was Exploitation
The Right Scoop ^ | 12/30/2013 | Caleb Howe

Posted on 12/30/2013 6:27:56 PM PST by absentee

Marc Lamont Hill: “Some would say maybe that it’s an exploitative picture that they’re exploiting the kid by hauling out this black person …”

[crosstalk]

“They were pointing out the fact that the picture itself was sort of a spectacle and they were sort of making fun of the Republican party. I don’t think they were making fun of the baby. If they were I’d be right on your side. This was a light moment making fun of Mitt Romney”

Clear? This was just good old-fashioned, harmless, light, fun-poking based on the self-evidently silly and mockable notion of Mitt Romney exploiting a black child to make up for being so white. Isn’t that fun and light-hearted and tra la la?

Please note the New Rule in Hill’s comments. Taking a family photo with a member of your family is exploiting that family member. Using that photo to make fun of republicans as racists is not exploitative at all, it’s just clean harmless horsing around. Why any second now Hill is going to snap a towel at Mitt in the locker room and oh, how we’ll laugh. Good times.

CNN is the leader in dumbing down the MSM.

You’re racist if you don’t adopt a black child, and you’re also racist if you do adopt a black child. Whitey can’t win.

If I were that kid I would rather be adopted by Ann Romney than any nut MSNBC hands down.

These folks are complete loons.

I just went to Hill’s website and wrote two scathing emails, which I erased before sending. I guess we shouldn’t stoop to their level. But, regarding the picture, this is what so enrages me: Romney’s family adopted a black child, by every indication a noble thing, and he dissed it, mocked it.

Willard Mitt Romney is not a noble man...

He has a political agenda behind adopting a black baby into a family that until at least 1978 was a racist family and members of a bigoted racist religion ..

Like Jeb Bush exploits his Hispanic family members, this child too will be exploited for political gain by the Romney family...

BTW its a tenet of Willard’s religion to take dark skinned children into the white families and raise them..

The color of the child is suppose to turn white..

"The color of the child is suppose to turn white."

Shut up. For a racist, you cannot make someone white through cultural conditioning. For a true racist, biology is everything. Romney's father was known - in his time - for being fairly advanced on civil rights issues. On the other hand, Al Gore's father voted against civil rights laws.

Using your logic, everyone in the South is still a racist because the South was once mainly racist. Mormonism changed it's views on blacks about the same time the South did.

your post is really a disappointment Tennessee Nana..

Mitt Romney would have been a much better President than what we now have. Class and Character still matter and he has that plus..

Don’t bother trying to shove your liberal Willard down my Conservative throat in 2016..

I don’t vote for abortion pushing same sex marriage liberals..

and if the Romney family hadn’t exploited the black baby by putting photos in the social media, MSNBC would not have picked it up and run with it...

Willard and his family did the exploiting in the first place..

anything you put on FaceAcheBook gets to be public property..

while I feel sorry for that poor little baby going into a liberal on steroids family, I have no sympathy for grizzle guts Willard

The Extreme Makeover of Fox News: Analyst Marc Lamont Hill ["Black Liberation" revolutionary communist]
Accuracy In Media - AIM Column ^ | October 2, 2009 | Cliff Kincaid

Who would plaster his Twitter page with police mug shot photos of convicted cop-killer Assata Shakur? Fox News contributor Marc Lamont Hill did. At least until David Horowitz and Accuracy in Media took notice and wrote about it. Now the page features photos of boxing great Muhammad Ali. Hill's MySpace page is also gone.

There are other changes as well. The tributes to Shakur and black racist Khallid Muhammad, known as "America's Black Hitler," have disappeared from his web pages. The articles were saved, however, and can be found here.

From the David Horowitz Freedom Center, October 6, 2009:

Marc Lamont Hill isn’t Just An Admirer of Cop-Killer Mumia Abu-Jamal, He’s His Publisher

Marc Lamont Hill, Sept 7, 2009:

"I am thrilled to announce that Mumia Abu-Jamal has joined the Barbershop as a weekly contributor!! His column, “Live From Death Row,” will appear every Wednesday starting next week.

Mumia Abu-Jamal is one of the world’s most celebrated journalists, freedom fighters, and political prisoners. Since his early days in Philadelphia, Mumia was an active member of the Black freedom struggle. From his award-winning journalism to his involvement with the Black Panther Party, Mumia has devoted his life to Black liberation. Wrongfully incarcerated since 1981 for the murder of Officer Daniel Faulkner, Mumia has continued to place a spotlight on various forms of injustice around the globe through his numerous columns, commentaries, and books. Mumia has generated international support for his own case, which has been one of the most glaring and repugnant reflections of the criminal (in)justice system."--Marc Lamont Hill

Marc Lamont Hill isn’t Just An Admirer of Cop-Killer Mumia Abu-Jamal, He’s His Publisher:

The usual suspect race-mongers will flourish as long as they have an audience. HEY FOXNEWS, STOP GIVING THEM AIRTIME AND THEIR AUDIENCE WILL DIMINISH!!!
