There’s nothing quite like the fury of a cornered political hack. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio gave a remarkable press conference on Monday afternoon where he blamed the media for creating the air of paranoia and racial tension currently hanging heavy over the Big Apple.

“What are you guys gonna do? Are you gonna keep dividing us?” de Blasio demanded of reporters, angry at them for daring to report the ugly behavior of certain demonstrators. You can tell from his body language that de Blasio feels the wall pressing hard against his back. He needed a scapegoat, fast, and chose one of the few institutions less respected than he is at the moment. That might not have been a smart pick, as politicians often learn when picking fights with the folks who buy ink by the barrel and pixels by the gigabyte.
A bizarre whiff of de Blasio’s authoritarian socialism hangs over even his last-ditch desperation plays. He’s not even really accusing the media of lying about anything here; he’s castigating them for daring to tell a truth he now finds politically inconvenient.

And, sadly, most reporters will submit in the face of angry leftists.
What's the old saying: To anger a conservative, tell him a lie; to anger a liberal, tell him the truth?
Ah, the things a cornered leftist will say and do to his allies.
Leftists blame others for their own shortcomings REFLEXIVELY. They really can’t control it. It’s psychological projection... a key element of Leftist thinking.
That was an hilarious melt-down by this incompetent, lazy fool. Who thought I’d pray for the return of Bloomberg???????
Need that clip of the Rev. Al leading his congregation down the street and demanding dead cops now.
Drop the Rev
That same media that celebrated the diversity of his family and convictions. That one?
When it comes to blame, even the sacred media is not immune if it means the viability of a dysfunctional rabid liberal politician.
Wilhelm was for the media before he was against it.
Blame the NYPD
Blame the Media
Blame ?
Now its about "dividing us".
As soon as the heats off they'll be on the attack again.
Having voted in a known Socialist/Communist, what did the people of New York state expect from de Blasio? The same goes for a country that voted for an embittered community organizer of mixed race who disdains what America stands for, and whose hidden agenda to expel America from her once proud and respected place in the World is now apparent....how could such a person be elected as POTUS?
Huge numbers of anti-American elitists in academia, and in business’ whose wealth is the result of capitalism as much as they preach against that...they helped send an imposter to our White House.
Cornered Rat syndrome? Mr Big has so little friends these days. Serves him right the marxist.
You have to wonder: is it Battered Woman Syndrome that keeps them coming back? Or are the media Leftists so loyal that they consider it a privilege to be abused by The Obama, The Messiah, the Won?
What is it this week?
Corporate greed bags, bitter malcontents, EBT queens, and many many newcomers with no stake in the country other than what it can give them; lot of people have their greasy piggies in the public trough. Thats how it happens.
Do we know why he changed his name?
Both Gerald Ford and Bill Clinton have names different from the names on their birth certificates.
Ford was named Leslie King when born. His mother remarried and he was adopted by new husband Mr. Ford, resulting in his name change to Gerald Ford.
Clinton grew up named Bill Blythe. His mother remarried Mr.Clinton, and Bill Blythe became Bill Clinton.
Just saying that some people have different names then the ones on their birth certificates.
Did de Blasio change his name to identify with the big community of people of Italian descent in New York? I would wonder if it was a political move on his part.
The media has actually protected the charlatan, by not analyzing where his class-hatred stirring efforts inevitably lead. Where, indeed? Egalitarian Collectivism Sabotages Human Potential. To understand fluff brained Collectivist/Egalitarians like De Blasio, one needs to fully appreciate the reckless demagoguery of The Blame & Envy Cocktail.
To the media, far too often, such clowns, who merely copy the age old tactics of morally corrupting technicians, are seen as innovative, when in fact they are only mouthing the sloganized cliches of an endless parade of like pseudo-intellectual poseurs.
Any reasonably intelligent Fifth Grader, in 1900, could have destroyed De Blasio in a debate. With the decline in school standards--precisely because of demagogues like De Blasio--it would probably take a Senior in High School, today. But the people in New York better wake up & turn their backs on the phoney "sophistication," which--whether product of the media, or just a corrupt culture, in general--makes them so apparently blind to the political insanity, which makes a De Blasio election, even possible.
A few more press conferences with this clown will reduce the "Big Apple" to chaotic apple sauce.
