Why don’t they ever call out black racists?

[FES0844]

Their end game is to shut down conservative talk radio. #1 target is Rush.

I'm thinking it goes back earlier to 2012 when they pushed the Beast's "inflammatory right wing" youtube video to hide the Obama/Clinton Benghazi debacle. Recall, she e-mailed her daughter and admitted it was a load. The Compost got its official Roy Rogers, Jr. spurs about 1974 though, when they railroaded Nixon out of office. They've been insufferable since.

The Alexandria shooter probably convinced himself that every republican is exactly like this Romanik jerk, which is what WaPo wants you to think as well.

650 WATTS !!!
Any day now, they will bump it up to a full 50,000 watts.
Like WABC, KFI, WGN...

If you live beyond a couple of mile range, try twisting a coathanger around your existing antenna.
Your mileage may vary.

‘Middle America’ = 98% of it.

Let’s start calling the blue coasts the Lunatic Fringe.

[relictele]

Many of us remember the Time magazine ‘militias’ cover story paranoia as the media attempted to distract from Clinton’s boxer-dropping exploits.

[Lorianne]

Truly.
This guy could reach more people with a YouTube channel.

WaPo are skunks (apologies to skunks).

[ichabod1]

Yeah but he was talking about wiggers so he got a pass.

[MarMema]

I went to high school in Belleville. And sadly I don't recognize any of the pictures in this writing...

Anyway it's that blue and red paneled one toward East St Louis....Guessing it still looks like that.

FAKE NEWS doesn’t get much faker than this, even by wapo’s already very low, fake standards.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Count on at least one bald faced lie on page 1 of the Post.

[bigbob]

But did he use the N-word in the cool Bill Maher hiphop way or in the evil KKK allwhitepeopleareracists way? Makes all the difference, ya know...

[Spok]

Diverting attention from left wing violence. It’s as though the NYT, CNN and now the WaPo are competing for the fake news trophy. They can’t imagine they’ll get away with it.

[Major Matt Mason]

Muddying the waters - the shooter was obviously a leftist loon driven by the hate spewed from the Left, so they need to find a tiny example of the same on the Right and conflate it into the old "see, that side is as bad/worse" meme that they've been getting away with for far too long.

So now this radio talk show host will point out the myriad lies, hate and propaganda in the Washington Post. I’ll be sure to catch the podcast!

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

I understand many of his points, but the way he is going about it is incitement to violence. All of that must be stopped. The Washington Post is irresponsible for publishing a picture of Hodgkinson’s house. That was wrong.

...

But the Compost says their signal already “reaches across the region.”

[mac_truck]

It’s not yet 11 a.m., and Bob Romanik, sitting behind the microphone at his radio station in a rundown strip mall in the middle of America, already has said the “n-word” out loud — and on air — at least a dozen times.

Ha...or maybe he was just sampling Jay-Z's new platinum selling album Story of OJ
