Left-wing New York Times reporter and controversial 1619 Project creator Nikole Hannah-Jones was slammed online after accusing journalists covering the Russian invasion into Ukraine of “racialized analysis and language” in their reporting, indicating their “sympathy” for white victims of conflict and refugees in particular while claiming Europe is a fictional continent intended to separate it from non-“civilized” nations.
On Sunday, Hannah-Jones, author of the debunked New York Times 1619 Project, called on fellow journalists to “look internally” regarding acknowledging their racial biases in their coverage of the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
“Every journalist covering Ukraine should really, really look internally. This is why I say we should stop pretending we have objectivity and in instead acknowledge our biases so that we can report against them,” she wrote. “Many of us see the racialized analysis and language.”

She added, “And honestly, these admissions of shock that this is happening in a European country are ahistorical and also serve to justify the lack of sympathy for other invasions, other occupations and other refugee crisis involving peoples not considered white.”

CNN was doing the same thing last night, so maybe a new set of talking points went out!
A reporter at the Poland border and Don Le-MON were bemoaning the fact that Ukrainian citizens were being given priority over NON-CITIZEN African immigrants fleeing from Ukraine to Poland. I don’t know if they were illegals or not, but they were NOT citizens. Yet somehow that was racist, per CNN.
Media scum.
I have updated my uniform response when the reported actions stand on their own without a response.
When your opponent is running into a burning building with a lit road flare and an open bucket of Jet A, with a box of dynamite strapped to their back.....Stand Back and Livestream from another zip code.
Hey, I’m all for the press covering much what Muslims are doing the black Christians in Africa, especially Nigeria.
This person’s obsession with race is a mental illness. But she has obviously made a lot of money from her hate, and so she is not about to stop.
That’s exactly the kind of statement one would expect from an idiot with painted-on eyebrows...
Does she feel that people of color are under represented in the coverage of two European countries at war?
Feeling left out and looking for attention.
Bruh!
Wakanda forever.
Nikole Hannah-etc...
I want to personally invite YOU to look internally at what I think about The 1619 Project!
Ain’t Affirmative Action wonderful.
I think what she’s saying is that the white population in the US is “interested” in this war, but less so in other wars, those that are between non-white combatants. To me, the fact that one of the countries in this war is A. our historic rival, B. a global superpower, with a massive nuclear arsenal and C. presided over by a madman who our most recent prior president was in the thrall of makes it all a little more important than the also-tragic wars in Africa or Armenian.
I notice that many of the most idiotic black women on TV and those who scribble for various newspapers try to make themselves look as white as possible.
This view ‘everything by race’ narrative is so washed up. You would thing they would want a fresher Talking point
It is always about race. Nothing else matters.
The stupidity is intolerable.
Looks like white guys fighting whites guys, with coverage heavily favorable to the Ukraine. Why would she have a problem with that.

Let me see if I can help here.
I’ve been training myself to be an interpreter for lib-speak.
What she is really saying is that since brown people are dying (or about to die), white journalists are making an unnecessary fuss.
“She is Black”
She’s about as black as Derek Jeter. Since when is it OK to apply the reverse purity test to public figures? That bigotry is no different than that exercised by the crackers in the early 20th century.
Come on man, they hate it when you bring up Chicago.
Odd. I don’t see many tans amongst those Russkies. Palest people I’ve ever seen.
When one reads the replies on Twitter, one realizes Twitter has become a self-confirming sewer of leftist ideology spinning toward a singularity.
Do they ever think of anything besides color?
Jeez, this gets old.
