Ocasio-Cortez calls out CBS for not assigning a 'single black journalist to cover '20
The Hill ^ | January 12, 2019 | Aris Foley

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y) criticized CBS News Saturday night for what she considered lack of diversity in its team of reporters covering the upcoming 2020 presidential election.

“This WH admin has made having a functional understanding of race in America one of the most important core competencies for a political journalist to have, yet [CBS News] hasn’t assigned a *single* black journalist to cover the 2020 election,” Ocasio-Cortez said in a tweet.

“Unacceptable in 2019. Try again,” Ocasio-Cortez added.

Obsessed with skin color.

Sign of low character.

Actually, liberals holding liberals’ feet to their own stupid fire is something I’d like to see a bunch more.

It’d be great to socially force CBS to “make up” for all the years it didn’t use black transvestite bestiality midgets in reporting and anchor roles.

All the celebrity will just make her eventual fall from grace even more spectacular.

This “thing” is garnering far too much attention than she deserves.

I’m sick of reading about her.

Funny how those pushing ‘diversity’ of superficial things like skin color don't want there to be diversity of thoughts or opinions that actually contribute substance to the national dialogue.

Their idea of diversity is like having Easter eggs with different colors on the outside, but all being the same hardboiled eggs on the inside.

She never stops, does she?

I don’t see how anyone can double down on stupid as often as she does.

Ah, identity politics. So very immature and short sighted of you, AOC. You should’ve stuck with dancing - that was far more entertaining.

AOC is getting a little big for her britches.

Nancy, can’t you control your people?

She’s the poster child for stupid and the MSM thinks she brings in the left wing vote. She will wear thin same as Camera Hogg. The farther left these idiots push themselves to might just be for the better. Isn’t it amazing what colleges give degrees to?

This is to be encouraged IMHO. The truth is that the upper echelons of liberal-dom are whiter than a KKK rally, yet they run around calling everyone else racist. They have no moral authority to be doing that, and it’s about time they’re called on it.

The left says the same thing about Trump, you know. And what we think about her doesn’t matter any more to those who support her than we care what they think about Trump.

I see her go after the media sometimes, and you know what? I couldn’t care less.

I hate to admit it, but she has a point. Most times I’ve seen news crews they’re predominately white males.

Wouldn’t bother me but isn’t the media constantly hectoring us about race?

Love it. She is attacking Nancy Pelosi, all of the house leadership. Old respected guys in the party like Lieberman, and now she is turning her twenty-something mind against CBS.

Yeah, this is gonna end well for her.

That all depends on what part of the country you live in.
