CNN Anchor Claims She Saw Tea Party Spit on Members of Congress
Washington Free Beacon ^ | November 14, 2016 | Cameron Cawthorne

CNN anchor Brianna Keilar claimed on Monday that she witnessed Tea Party protesters spitting on African-American members of Congress and calling them racial slurs when she previously covered the Tea Party as a reporter in 2010.

The incident that Keilar alluded to allegedly occurred on March 20, 2010, when thousands of Americans arrived in Washington, D.C. to protest House Democrats preparing to vote for Obamacare. While many reporters said they witnessed the incident, Breitbart News debunked it and found there was no video evidence that it ever happened.

Jesse Jackson Jr. took the video proving the Racial Slurs and spitting never happened. Then he went to prison.....

Wasn’t this previously proven to be a hoax claim, YEARS AGO?

IIRC, a large reward was offered for proof that it happened, and no one collected.

Right. Spit on a Congressman in front of reporters, and there is no video? Okay. That’s why journalists can say with a straight face that Hillary is as honest as t are.

***Important thing is that the airwaves of the U.S. belong to US, the people***

I used to think - and post - boycotting these channels would cause the bean-counters to force a change of direction. I now realize that these media outlets are owned by super rich corps that will hold out to the bitter end! ...for whatever reason. We have freedom of speech ... so if they want to spend millions of dollars to proselytize a few dozen people I am comfortable with that! ;^)

Not this “SPIT” again! She must have decided she has something to cover up and this is the distraction to achieve that.

“”Lewis was beat up during civil rights protests in the South many years ago by real racists. No doubt a root cause of his anger and bitterness in the years that followed.””

The only reason he’s in Congress now and has been reelected ever since. Only claim to fame!
