Trayvon Martin

The Trayvon Martin case has taken over the media and the "race industry" in this country. Unfortunately this focus has not been for a loftier purpose such as unification over a tragic death. Instead it is being used as an attempt to take a perverse advantage in political messaging. As a result, we wanted to display the dialogue on both sides and present the sad truth about this despicable race and media exploitation. Don't let this attempt at political and racial division succeed.

Race-baiting media are a disgrace!

7/15/13

from The Gray Area:

In my post yesterday about reactions to the verdict in the George Zimmerman murder trial, I stated that "the media needs to be more responsible and must be embarrassed publicly and thereby incented to demonstrate fair, balanced and responsible journalism." No more than I wrote those words than the media doubled down on their race baiting agenda. Following is an excerpt from a report

by the Media Research Center,

on what they saw today:

Now, with the verdict is in and Zimmerman acquitted, the media continue their race-baiting narrative:

- Immediately after the verdict was read, an AP reporter tweeted “So we can all kill teenagers now? Just checking.”

- On July 14, writing for POLITICO, Scarborough doubled down, saying that it is "my belief that George Zimmerman is a racist idiot who chased an unarmed teenager through a neighborhood for little reason more than he was a black man wearing a hoodie."

- Also on July 14, CNN’s Candy Crowley asked Illinois Governor Pat Quinn, “Do you think the American justice system is innately racist?”

- On July 15, on NBC’s “Today,” anchor Savannah Guthrie wondered whether there hadn’t been enough race in the trial, asking Sharpton, “Do you think the prosecutors missed an opportunity there, that they didn't explicitly make this case about racial profiling?”

The race-baiting media owe George Zimmerman an apology (or money from his lawsuit). A jury of his peers has spoken. Zimmerman was acquitted, and that’s that. Any continuation of the media’s unrelenting, divisive, hate-mongering coverage is an absolute disgrace.

Cynical, race-profiteering troublemakers like NBC’s Al Sharpton, Joe Scarborough, and Savannah Guthrie are stirring hatred because it fits their biased worldview and boosts ratings. Race-baiting persists in America because it’s encouraged by the press.

Sharpton and his ilk in the media will have to answer for any violence perpetrated against George Zimmerman or anyone else in the name of Trayvon Martin. Martin’s death was an absolute tragedy, but that doesn’t give the liberal media carte blanche to encourage racial violence and mayhem for ratings.

It’s time the left-wing media are held accountable for their actions.
