Five days after slandering innocent teenaged boys from Covington Catholic High School in Kentucky, unleashing a violent leftist social media mob against them, most cable news networks have attempted to quietly distance themselves from the story.
But not the National Broadcasting Company.
Tuesday evening, NBC ran the following headline: “Gay valedictorian banned from speaking at Covington graduation ‘not surprised’ by D.C. controversy.”
“Video of white students from Covington Catholic High School confronting a Native American elder at the Indigenous Peoples March in Washington, D.C., last Friday went viral this past week,” said the opening line of the piece.

This has been the mainstream media’s narrative from the beginning. They have willfully and purposefully attempted to destroy the lives of innocent teenaged boys, despite the fact that video evidence of the encounter indisputably proves that they were not the aggressors.
Worse, the NBC headline is entirely misleading.
The “gay valedictorian,” named Christian Bales, did not even attend Covington Catholic High School. Rather, he attended Holy Cross High School. Holy Cross is part of the Diocese of Covington, but totally unrelated to Covington Catholic High School, as NBC would have its readers believe.
The only reason to frame the story as such is to push an anti-Christian agenda.
To that point, Holy Cross High School did not ban Bales from speaking for his sexual orientation, but rather for failing to turn his speech in on time, which NBC admits in its article.
“At the time, a spokesperson for the Diocese of Covington said the students’ speeches were not submitted on time and ‘were political and inconsistent with the teaching of the Catholic Church,'” the piece said.
Bales even said he was unsure whether his sexual orientation was related to the Diocese’s decision, and did not dispute that his speech was turned in late.
“Bales said at the time that he was unsure whether his sexual orientation played a role in the Diocese of Covington’s decision to not permit him to speak at graduation,” the piece said.
But for the framing of this “news” article, it would be a total non-story. Told plainly – a student missed the deadline to submit his valedictorian speech and was disallowed from speaking – is not exactly an attention grabber. Nor does it serve to further the narrative against the Covington boys.
So NBC consciously spun the story to fit the biases of its readers and gave it an over broad headline to catch eyeballs and attract clicks. This is not journalism. It is anti-Christian activism.
The fact that the Covington Catholic boys have been put through the ringer by the media, have been doxxed, had their lives have been threatened, and their parents’ livelihoods have been put into jeopardy, means nothing to the left wing terrorists in the media.
NBC’s Savannah Guthrie also tried to pressure Nick Sandmann, the student at the center of the controversy, into an apology during an interview that aired on TODAY on Wednesday, hardly hiding her obvious disdain for the boy.

They only learn from it if the lesson is harsh enough...
...and there are any survivors.
It’s worth it to them.
A large pizza can feed a family of four.
Truth is their enemy.
Probably the first one in. But, with the kind of money they have it’ll probably be dismissed. We all know how this goes.

Video of white students from Covington Catholic High School confronting a Native American elder at the Indigenous Peoples March in Washington, D.C.,
1. The students confronted...I’m pretty sure the Indian confronted them...he walked up to one and started banging his little drum in his face.
2. “Native American elder”...is that an official rank/position? I was born in the U.S. and I’m 9 years older than drum guy. Am I too a Native American elder?
3. “...at the Indigenous Peoples March”. That funny, I thought the kids participated at the March for Life that drew 100,000, but now we are supposed to believe the event was the Indigenous Peoples March. How many came for that?
Fake Injun too I suspect. Once he’d lie about Stolen Valor, he’d lie about anything.
The slimey haired "elder" specifically walked over to his admitted enemies, Trump and his fans as identified by their MAGA hats, and he confronted the boys by getting within one inch of their face and beating his silly child's drum trying to INCITE a response so he could gain notoriety. Plan an simple, the indian was attempting to incite violence and the kid disappointed everyone by standing his ground as an adult.
Nice dildoos lol
What (in their demented MSM minds) do they think the Covington teens should have done when Chief Ten Teeth slithered over and got in their faces while his cohorts screamed insults?
What they really wanted was for the kid to push him out of the way so Phillips could claim assault and for violence to erupt. Didnt happen so plan B.
How very isLamic of them.
Native American activist Vincent Schilling states: "The Native man is Nathan Phillips, an Omaha keeper of a sacred pipe and a Vietnam Veteran."
Vincent Schilling: Nathan Phillips is a Vietnam Veteran
Vincent Schilling changed this article to now say Nathan Phillips is a Vietnam-era veteran.
Those broads were nuts. OOps! I used the word, b roads. The lib/commies are going to conduct a war crimes tribunal against me..
Why are these kids going on the The Toady Show? Not a good idea IMO.
