If the mainstream media wants to find out why fewer and fewer people take them seriously, a September 18 article in the Washington Post would be towards the top of the piles of evidence. The very title of the story by Hannah Natanson reflects both the extreme shallowness along with the obvious bias to produce the incredibly cringeworthy "Frederick Douglass photos smashed stereotypes. Could Elizabeth Warren selfies do the same?"

Groan! And if you think the body of the article will somehow will redeem itself you would be wrong. It is also chock full of embarrassing cheerleading for Warren while attempting to stretch to make an absurd connection between Warren selfies and Douglass photos.

So Frederick Douglass was a white guy who only pretended to be a slave in order to advance his career?

Frederick Douglass, a pro-gun Republican, said in his autobiography “A man’s rights rest in three boxes. The ballot box, the jury box and the cartridge box”.

So which is she, Native American or freed African slave? Maybe she’ll next claim some extraterrestrial heritage.

Warren doesn’t look anything like Douglass. She looks like an old spinster “school marm” from the 1800s.

Guess the Washington Post wants to move away from ‘vile’ and move toward ‘silly’ and ‘inane’... how creepy.
