Media Matters honcho Angelo Carusone under fire over derogatory, hateful comments
Fox News ^ | March 13 2019 | Brian Flood

Media Matters president and far-left activist Angelo Carusone is under fire after The Daily Caller unearthed hateful and inflammatory comments he made in the past about everything from transvestites to ethnicity.

Carusone has been leading a campaign against Fox News host Tucker Carlson for things he said on a radio program several years ago. Sensing hypocrisy, Daily Caller reporter Peter Hasson uncovered an old blog in which Carusone allegedly used hateful rhetoric against a series of groups.

“Carusone’s now-defunct blog included degrading references to ‘trannies,’ ‘jewry’ and Bangladeshis,” Hasson wrote. “Carusone posted a lengthy diatribe in November 2005 about a Bangladeshi man who was robbed by ‘a gang of transvestites,’ as Carusone described it. Carusone was offended that the gang was described as ‘attractive’ in an article.”

"The report also indicated the Media Matters honcho also “downplayed a male basketball coach’s alleged sexual and physical abuse of his female players” and used an ethnic slur." And since he is a Soros funded Democrat he can get away with this.

Soros will just have him replaced him with someone else. Some homo/trans non-white person who can’t be touched by the PC police he created.

I think the takeaway from this is that Tucker Carlson is demonstrating how to push back against the Leftist Fascists. We should watch carefully. He’s picked his target and he’ll freeze it, personalize it, polarize it to destroy it.

I’m glad Fox is reporting this. I hope they fight back against Media Matters.

The Smear: How Shady Political Operatives and Fake News Control What You See, What You Think, and How You Vote

by Sharyl Attkisson

She has a chapter in the book about Media Matters and how they feed content to news outlets.

a $14M budget for Media Matters?
the issue is branding all Conservatives as ‘white nationalists’ There needs to be a counteraction for this smear. Anyone?

What is it with the rampant antisemitism of the left? It seems like every one of them has a thing about Jews. They sure seem to spend a lot of time ranting about them.

It is good that Fox is reporting on Carusone’s statements. I would be shocked if any of this information made its way onto CNN, or into the Times or Washington Post. Just another indication that, according to the Left, all hate starts and ends with conservatives.

All too typical. Accusers from the left are ALWAYS much worse human beings that those who they accuse... bank on it!

IIRC, media matters used to be run by David Brock, a particularly loathsome human being who is also homosexual.
