The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has backed away from its earlier accusations against Stephen K. Bannon, stating on its website: “We are not aware of any anti-Semitic statements from Bannon.”

Good for them. It’s a credibility builder when you can admit you were wrong about something.

Southern Poverty Law Center will not be as honest.

Maybe donors to the ADL were threatening a revolt?

OMG!!! They “backed down”???

I have never, ever heard of them failing to pile on to whatever their first impression was. Relentlessly.

Never seen that before, and I mean in many dozens of years.

All fine and dandy, they put it on their website that will be read by maybe a 100k people.

The original accusation is in the minds of the people who heard it on the MSMABCNNBCBSFOX news casts. They won’t hear the retraction because the MSM won’t report it................................

Their credibility dropped by several orders of magnitude in my eyes. And it had already eroded considerably over the years. They’ve just become another outlet for left wing advocacy, and do little for their declared mission.

Trump is showing how to fight the Left. Confront them. Make them prove what they claim...if they can.

Waiting on Pelosi, Reid and others who cited 'Anti-Semitism' in their opposition.

[... crickets ...]

Anybody found proof of actual racism in his history or is it the usual kind of thing, "Boy its a black night!" = KKK Membership?

They had to.

They’ve made a liberal mistake by previously publicizing the Jew-hate of ANSWER, a project of Ramsey Clark’s International Action Center and the Worker’s World Party, which is now paying for riots against Trump. The ADL is trapped; they were unprepared for where truth would lead.

Liberal response: “Yeah? Well, OK. But he’s still a WHITE NATIONALIST!”

funny when you ask for proof the accuser cannot give any , and then backs down.
Weird how that works. It is sort of like yesterday when a Russian journalist asked Kirby at the State Dept for what hospitals have been bombed by Russia. He could not name one and then said to her that she should ask Russia.

Typical left wing, always accuse, and never have proof or facts to back their claim up.

That’s a pretty feeble back-down. No apology, no admission of error, and plenty of room for assuming that he DID make anti-Semitic comments that they are not aware of.

What a difference having a fighter at the helm makes; everybody else around him follows the lead.
