Fordham University professor Christina Greer came under fire and subsequently apologized for minimizing the tragedy surrounding Mollie Tibbetts death during an appearance on MSNBC.
Fordham University Professor Christina Greer said that Mollie Tibbetts was just a girl in Iowa during a segment on MSNBC this week. Tibbetts was murdered in July allegedly by an illegal alien who had been living in the United States for four to seven years.
But Fox News is talking about a girl in Iowa and not this, right? she added.
After a backlash against Greer erupted on social media, she turned to blaming right wing media. When right wing media decides to target you, you really see the economic anxiety come out, she tweeted.
The Republican party is not working on behalf of the American people. They are working on behalf of Donald Trump, Greer began And hes been able to bully them into their silence. And I dont think today changes much, unfortunately.
Several hours later, after the backlash had swelled, Greer changed her tone and issued an apology, spelling Tibbetts name wrong in the process. Yesterday I said something flippant that was unintended. Mollie Tibbets [sic] was a promising young woman who lost her life, she tweeted. My hope is that her family will find peace & justice and that her murder is not used to justify a discriminatory immigration policy. #Apologiesaremyown.

Eff her, lying phony.
Not much of an apology
Typical leftist non-apology “apology”.
Too late, toots.
If I was in the family what I’d tell her wouldn’t fit in a Golden Book.
This must be after she found out Mollie apparently hated trump and white people...
Not much of an apology - she still managed to work in a political angle.
How come I am skeptical?
Yeah. She really meant to say, “.....some WHITE girl from Iowa....”.
she’s just sorry to find out she dissed a SJW college student and not a member of the young for Trump set.
"...and that her murder is not used to justify a discriminatory immigration policy."
Never apologize for saying what you feel.
You felt it. You said it.
Don’t be ashamed. You’re super smart and capable.
Professor Christina Greer, no one should be able to rape your thoughts.
...unless of course your caught up in some kind of political sex cult.?
These people are deranged, the TDS has caused them all to be unhinged and illogical morons.
No, it wasn’t.
Bullshiite. It was scripted and approved before the On Air Light came on.
GMTA :)
