In tonight’s Talking Points Memo, Bill O’Reilly slammed the “far-left grievance industry” for getting “more desperate every day.”
This week, the New Haven Register editorialized about a new Ku Klux Klan intrusion in Connecticut. It read, “The same basic message that the KKK has promoted for 148 years is embraced by the likes of Ted Nugent, Fox News, Ann Coulter, a burgeoning array of fringe ‘conservative’ media and members of our own community…”
It continued: “With that in mind, we shouldn’t need a label as obvious as ‘KKK’ to call out and condemn hatred and racism. Institutions who are helping “mainstream” this message -- even if that’s Fox News, the national Republican Party, or Toad’s Place -- deserve to be called out and, if ultimately necessary, marginalized and ostracized for enabling it.”
O’Reilly called the editors “cowards” and asked for an apology in writing by the end of the week. “Instead of trying to come up with solutions to the disproportionate amount of violent crime caused by young African American men, the catastrophic high school dropout rate in the inner city and the destruction of the traditional black family, the race hustlers and their sympathizers have descended into the gutter.”
