MSNBC Promotes Admitted Radical, Anarchist, Anti-Capitalist OWS Organizer

Americans are destined this day to by bludgeoned by liberal media members gushing and fawning over the May Day and Occupy protests all over the country.

The farce of a so-called “news network” MSNBC certainly did its part Tuesday by promoting Harrison Schultz, one of the original Occupy Wall Street organizers who right from the top admitted to being an anarchist while later expressing his desire for radical changes to America’s capitalist structure (video follows with transcribed highlight and commentary):

Story Continues Below Ad ↓

After NewsNation’s Tamron Hall addressed protests going on around the country, she introduced Schultz and asked him about blogs wondering what’s happened to Occupy

“We never left. We were just tired,” Schultz replied. “Anarchy isn’t easy.”

Anarchy isn’t easy.

And this is what an American “news network” supports? Anarchy?

Apparently so, for as his microphone wasn’t immediately switched off, the interview continued with Schultz having free air time to address what his fellow anarchists are planning now that winter is over.

Hall asked her anarchist guest if he and some of the other protesters are going to use the movement to impact the upcoming elections.

“In my opinion,” responded the anarchist, “the historical roots of the crisis that we’re in now go back a lot farther than the stupid grudge between Democrats and Republicans. The problem here is capitalism. That’s what needs to change. That’s what’s failing all these people.”

Not surprising that Hall didn't ask her anarchist guest about his background with Bank of America assisting investment bankers.

That would have been WAY too much like journalism and most certainly wouldn't have fit the agenda being advocated.

Instead, she let her hypocritical anarchist guest continue, “So I personally don’t care about this election. I know other people are working on it. But I’m looking at far, far more radical alternatives than political alternatives.”

And this is what MSNBC gives valuable air time to.

Any questions?

"BREAKING NEWS! OSAMA KILLED ONE YEAR AGO TODAY!!"

Submitted by gopcongress on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 3:55pm.

Rush brought out the fact that MSNBC has been treating the one year anniversary of the Navy Seals magnificent job of killing Bin Laden like a breaking news story. I don't recall any "MISSION: ACCOMPLISHED!" stories one year after that event on MSNBC, so perhaps MSNBC is showing a little bias?

So he's an Anarchist?

Submitted by Tugboat Phil on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 4:02pm.

Isn't that someone that believes in no government or rules of any kind?

So if I smash his face with a baseball bat he'd be cool with it and wouldn't file a police report?

President Obama is a Muslim (from his own lips), Kenyan (read it from his publicist) a homosexual (read it on a news magazine cover) and a Socialist (I'm alive and can see it for myself)

Yeah, guys............I know

Submitted by killa37 on Wed, 05/02/2012 - 1:15am.

Yeah, guys............I know a couple of 'anarchists' (but they voted for Baraka - so what does that tell you???), and I've basically told them that - if those are the rules - I own them, right?? And that's without even bringing either one of my sons into the mix, who can eliminate about 90% of the competition on their own!!

These clowns are too pathetic to even talk about..................but the MSM seems to love to prop them up, maybe because they are even MORE pathetic!!!

The Trouble With Leftists

Submitted by HardRightTurn on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 4:03pm.

They don't think they will have to share in the misery their failed economic system causes.

To more fully comprehend the Left, one must read “Leftism As Psychopathy” by John Ray, M.A., Ph.D. Caution, it might scare you a little bit.

I wonder if MSNBC's newest stooge knows any of the maggots who tried to blow up that bridge in Ohio?

And Obama is conveniently out of the country.

Submitted by drsamherman on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 4:16pm.

I don't believe it is coincidence. He'll try to deflect his drooling support for OWS in the coming campaign, but he will have to do a lot more than putting on his testosterone patch and bolting for Afghanistan.

Testaterone patch?? I love

You got that right,

Submitted by killa37 on Wed, 05/02/2012 - 1:11am.

You got that right, Doc..............if anything went haywire today with the OWS Bowel Movement, Boy Baraka would be conveniantly away - in Afganistan (where he DIDN'T invite the troops) - trying to fool anybody within earshot that he was actually a pro-military guy........................after struttin' and strokin' and signifyin' and cadillacin' about how HE was the guy who killed Osama Obama!!!

Hell, I think Moooooooooooochelle has control over his testotserone patches, and only she decides when he can put one on!!!

We are in deep deep trouble.

Submitted by JLin on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 4:24pm.

The Democrats and the masses of the devoted Left are completely off the rails. I really don't think America can come back from this. I really don't. We are too far down the communist trail. There are just an overwhelming number of selfish dysfunctional thinkers in this country who live in total denial.

An Anarchist

Yeah, Right

Submitted by sergeant stogie on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 4:41pm.

Exactly. How long do you think they would stay dedicated to their "cause" if a group of right-thinking counter-protestors showed up and took it to them? These spoiled little brats hide behind their bandannas and masks causing injuries and property damage. But if one of them so much as gets a hangnail while fighting with the cops, they're the first to throw a tantrum, complain, and file a lawsuit. Some anarchy, huh?

Meh.

An anarchist is just a conservative who really hates government, so much they don't want any.

Slight correction.

Submitted by UpNorth on Tue, 05/01/2012 - 8:02pm.

An anarchist is a progressive who's returned to his basic philosophical roots.

To re-elect Obama would be like the Titanic backing up and hitting the iceberg again.
