CNN used the voices of a few professors and activists to assert anyone who voted for President Donald Trump is a white supremacist in a news report Wednesday, and to blame these ordinary people for the violence in Charlottesville.
Trump voters helped advance white supremacy by giving them room to operate, CNN reported based on the assertions of others in a piece headlined, White Supremacists by default: How ordinary people made Charlottesville possible.
Its easy to focus on the angry white men in paramilitary gear who looked like they were mobilizing for a race war in the Virginia college town, CNN reported. But its the ordinary people the voters who elected a reality TV star with a record of making racially insensitive comments, the people who move out of the neighborhood when people of color move in, the family members who ignore a relatives anti-Semitism who give these type of men room to operate.
CNN put the weight of the assertion on the views of what they described as activists, historians and victims of extremism, but made no visible effort to question their assertions or provide a counter point of view. Fordham University professor Mark Naisons, for example, is quoted prominently in the piece accusing tens of millions of Americans of being white supremacists.
We are a country with a few million passionate white supremacists and tens of millions of white supremacists by default, Naison told CNN. Hes a political activist and history professor. He compared all Trump voters to nice people who facilitated the horrific violence of the Holocaust and the genocide in Rwanda by looking the other way.

Not even there...................
Agreed. There is NOT ONE THING credible about CNN.
At this point, my neighborhood is majority non-white. My neighbors are nice people, but I guess I need to start looking for another house according to CNN.
And, I'd probably doublecheck the sports scores....
Maybe I am a white supremacist. I believe that the white culture is superior to other cultures. It has produced the best civilization in history. But you can’t say these things in polite society.
But I don’t believe that other cultures should be eliminated, unless their behaviors are destructive to others.
There, I said it.
So what?
Why is this deeply biased, hateful, bigoted broadcaster still allowed to dominate the airwaves at airports? Why does the FAA allow such garbage in our airports? Where is the FCC?
Is the deep state that deep?
CNN: “... the voters who elected a reality TV star...”
They neglect to mention he is a multi-billionaire earned from success at business dealings....
Like any good Communist led revolution, there is always an element of cultural shaming that is used to press people into ideological conformity. This is what the Left in America really wants.
Is the number cited here correct? Are there a million white supremacists? Damn, those are some wily people as I’ve never met one!
Keep digging you dirt balls, this meme is going to bite you hard in the end. Sick of having endless labels attached to me that come out of left field.
Great business model they have: Insult half of all your viewers in the hope to regain your dominance.................
Typical liberal argument, “If you disagree with me, you are a (fill in the blank)”
In the past, it was racist, sexist, bigot, nazi, hater, homophobe, xenophobe, (fill in the blank-phobe)......now its White Supremacist.
Dear CNN, what name will you call the rest of us next week? I guess it is sort of like “Flavor of the Day” in ice cream shops?
I AGREE!
Blah blah blah
The more the MSM/DNC spout this drivel, the more they marginalized themselves.
I like "Parent vanishes after peekaboo game" LOL
There is no doubt that Black racists and Black nationalists voted nearly universally for Obama.
If the logic of CNN was correct, and they stayed faithful to that correct logic, then how is they never claimed that all the votes, and particularly all the Black votes, for Obama, were racist by default?
Why they never did that? Their logic is in error and they are hypocrites.
