Salon Deletes Article On Mosque Attack After Learning Attacker Was Muslim
DAILY CALLER ^

Posted on 12/30/2015 8:55:27 PM PST by TigerClaws

alon deleted an article on its website Wednesday about an arson attack on a Houston mosque, after news broke the alleged attacker was Muslim.

Authorities charged Gary Moore early Wednesday with setting fire to the Islamic Center of Houston on Christmas Day, shortly after Friday prayers. It’s not clear why Moore allegedly targeted the mosque, but authorities say there’s no evidence of a hate crime, according to the Associated Press. Rather, Moore himself is a Muslim who worshiped regularly at the center.

Why does this sound like the USSR and 1984?

I feel sorry for anyone who relies on Salon for a source of information and analysis — and even sorrier for those who have to live and work with such people.

Here’s an article containing a list of the MSM outlets that tied the attack to Trump:

Of course the Commies removed the article, in fact, the media hasn’t brought up the fire at all today, they have been covering Bill Cosby all day after all that’s FAR more important than anything else going on in the world/sarc. The media was glad to cover up this story by covering Cosby instead, didn’t fit into their Islamophobia narrative.

In Salon’s defense, it’s really not news anymore if a Muslim causes mayhem. A “dog bites man” situation if I ever saw one.

I knew they would do that. I predicted it the second I heard about the “arson.”

“Within seconds of learning who perpetrated this the story will vanish deeper than Obama’s college records”

Still a “ hate crime”. Inciting violence against Infidels.

The story is back on Salon now, but it's been rewritten.

It now concedes that the attack "may" have been the work of "a Muslim," it goes on to assert that "other Texas mosques" have been targeted by "heavily armed anti-Muslim protestors."

Here's a link, but the story is almost impossible to read, at least for me. The page loads all kinds of stuff that takes a long time, the vertical scroll bar doesn't work, although my mouse wheel will scroll it sometimes.

USA TODAY story doesn’t mention the man was Muslim or that he attended the Mosque.

They got donations from around the country for this.
