The National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA), also known as the Black Press of America, which is a non-partisan 501(c) 3 tax-exempt organization, has decided to show its disapproval of South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson's "You Lie" remarks by canceling a convention in the state.
"Rep. Wilson's remarks were racist, disrespectful and a disingenuous violation - not only of President Obama - but to the institution of the presidency and only solidified our position and the importance in not spending Black dollars where Black people are not respected," NNPA Chairman Danny J. Bakewell Sr. said in a statement.
The conference was scheduled for January according to Fox News. Bakewell said the 69-year-old organization, which includes 200 black community newspapers across the country, would exercise its ability to harm the state economically.
"The continued public and blatant disrespect of President Barack Obama by members of Congress will not be rewarded with our dollars nor will a state that continues to uphold America's shameful past by flying the Confederate flag," Bakewell added.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, South Carolina has one of the largest African-American populations by percentage in the country. And, the state falso aces a higher than average jobless rate of 11.8 percent, according to data released by the state's Employment Security Commission. So, the move by the NNPA could directly hurt blacks, even though it is intended to do the opposite.

black racism
Mon, 09/14/2009 - 12:26 ET by philipjamesno matter how you look at it, this is black racism.... its directed at whites...
Wilson didn't say " you lie... n****** " or anything like that
I agreee with Bozell, it is not right to call anyone a liar in a setting like that, no matter that Democrats booed Bush and did other things...
he should have waited and called Obama a liar after the speech.
However, this reverse racism by blacks by phoneying up some slant and liberals trying to label this liar comment as racist, shows just how down and dirty the liberals can get
it is the last desperate attempt by these scum to try to silence anyone on the right who is standing up to these fascists
I hope they don't shut up and turn around and shine the light on these race baiting and racist liberals and lefties
Liberal racism
Mon, 09/14/2009 - 15:03 ET by Indiana JoeThe core here is that when a liberal looks at a person, they see a race and a gender. When a conservative looks at a person, they see... a person!
This continually confounds and confuses liberals, to whom everything is all about race and gender. When you call a female liar a liar, you're being sexist. And when you call a black liar a liar, you're being racist.
Just thank God Wilson didn't call a black female liar a liar; then he'd be a racist and a sexist!

It's a real stretch to imply that weekend-long events create long-term employment. A boon for already-established businesses, yes. New jobs, no.

Mon, 09/14/2009 - 13:59 ET by ricklailEach May the Harley Davidson dealers of the Carolinas would host a week long bike fest. This year the they banned it. It brought in a lot of money. It helped the bottom line for the hotels and resturants. It didn't create any jobs. Law enforcement got a lot of overtime. It was also a boom for sells of adult beverages. What I meant was this banning of the bike rally was a lost worst to the economy than what a few hundred newpaper folks would have brought in.

Mon, 09/14/2009 - 16:41 ET by Indiana Joe"It's a real stretch to imply that weekend-long events create long-term employment."
Yes, exactly. But the point of the story is that the group is boycotting, taking their business elsewhere, to make a political point. If their boycott has any negative impact on business in SC, it will most likely be on the very people they claim to represent.
Now, lots of us are having fun pointing out how small that impact will be. But the underlying point is, they're basically shooting their "own people" in the foot with this grandstand play. See?

The article concludes thusly: According to the U.S. Census Bureau, South Carolina has one of the largest African-American populations by percentage in the country. And, the state falso aces a higher than average jobless rate of 11.8 percent, according to data released by the state's Employment Security Commission.
So clearly an issue of employment is of concern to the author. So indeed I did pick out a (not particularly) 'tiny' part of the article to comment on. Now please show where I attempted to use this to dismiss the rest of it.

JasonC: It's a real stretch to imply that weekend-long events create long-term employment.
JWF: Who said it would create jobs? Where in the article does it say jobs need to or will be created?
The main point of the article was that canceling the conference by the Black Press would hurt the very people it claims to serve. (motto: Your independent source of news for the African American community). The point was underlined by pointing out African Americans represent a larger percentage in the state. And, And, And, And. And.
Mr. Poor: And, the state also faces a higher than average jobless rate of 11.8 percent,

Mentioning the unemployment figure was supplementary, Binky.

We get it Binky. Newsbusters is a waste of time. Mr. Poor should have kept his big fat trap shut. And we are all dullards for agreeing with Mr. Poor. Thank heavens mr. smartypants Binky popped in to save the day and point out how we all waste our time here.

I'll rephrase: Although
Tue, 09/15/2009 - 11:52 ET by JasonCI'll rephrase:
Although the conference would undoubtedly have brought an infusion of dollars to existing local businesses, esp. those in the service sector, the implication* at the end of Mr. Poor's article that the issue of unemployment could be ameliorated by the group's presence - and therefore that by withdrawing, they are doing indirect harm to the state's employment figures - seems extraneous, i.e. "a bit of a stretch."
Oh wait, I already said all that.
* "Implication" being the key word. If this is not what Mr. Poor intended to imply, fine. You, JWF, are in no position to speak for him on the matter.
The Troll continues to parse.
Tue, 09/15/2009 - 12:04 ET by JWFMr. Poor: So, the move by the NNPA could directly hurt blacks, even though it is intended to do the opposite.
You parse. You parse a lot. 2 : to examine in a minute way : analyze critically
Mr. Poor gave no indications as to quantity or quality of hurt with his last statement. It could be a tiny hurt. It could be much bigger if other organizations follow suit. Only Binky started talking about creating, creating, and then creating jobs. Then parsed when called out.
Sincerely,
