New York Times issues correction after suggesting Cenk Uygur defended David Duke

The New York Times issued a correction on Monday night after being slammed for suggesting that liberal host-turned-congressional hopeful Cenk Uygur had previously defended former Klu Klux Klan leader David Duke.

The Times ran a report on Friday about how Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., had retracted his endorsement for Uygur after he faced backlash for supporting the congressional candidate. Uygur has had a history of controversial remarks, many of which were included in the report.

The report also mentioned an interview Uygur had done on his progressive digital outlet The Young Turks with Duke and pointed to a clip that had gone viral on Twitter, reporting that "Mr. Duke ends an interview by saying, 'I am not, what you call a racist,' to which Mr. Uygur replies, 'No, of course not,'" which appeared to have been said sarcastically.

Was this from when David Duke was a registered Democrat?

This year he said his favorite congressperson is one of the anti-semites on the Fraud Squad.

FOX News isn’t much better here. Not one word about the real reason Chunk Yogurt dropped out of the race. Clips of his passionate defense of bestiality surfaced and went viral.

I watched part of that video.

It was such a bad and evil idea he was awkwardly promoting it was impossible to watch the whole thing.

I have never heard of Cenk Uygur. I am familiar with David Duke. I think they’re both going to end up smoking a turd in Hell anyway.

This will make it a little easier for Papadopoulos to run for the seat that Katie Hill resigned from.

He runs the young Turks channel on YouTube, a commie newssite. Now he runs for the seat from Katie Hill. He is the leftist Alex Jones.

And youtube has a great vid of
Cenk and his fellow progs going

One woman, talking about Hillary—
“But the kind of hate this woman
has gotten just because she’s a
woman...”

So a guy who promotes bestiality is the guy running to replace a woman who combs the hair of her congressional aide while nude? California is a menace.
