Racism

CBS’s Stephen Colbert and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel kicked off their respective Wednesday shows by welcoming Black History Month while condemning alleged GOP attacks on the subject of black history.

On Morning Joe, a white privilege virtue-signaling Joe Scarborough says that as a 29-year-old, middle-class white man, police wouldn't have beaten him like they beat Tyre Nichols, "because they knew that if they did, if they beat the hell out of a 29-year-old, middle-class white guy, that hell would rain down from above." Scarborough fails to mention that hell did immediately rain down on the…

Leave it to the vile hosts of ABC’s The View to kick off Black History Month by playing around in a big steaming pile of racism. Between racist co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin and guest Eboni K. Williams, the hate was firing on all cylinders as they called Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis not just racist but “anti-black,” and whining that a white Memphis officer and…

CNN Newsroom host Bianna Golodryga invited former Secretary of Education Arne Duncan on to the Thursday program to discuss the latest developments surrounding the College Board and AP African-American Studies. If the point was to educate the audience, then Duncan failed as he claimed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has “a white nationalist agenda” and that “something insidious is happening…

This week, tape emerged from Memphis, Tennessee of five black police officers engaging in the beating of Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old black man. Nichols was pulled over for reckless driving according to the officers; they ordered him to get on the ground and to give them his hands; he did not comply and instead began to run. When the officers caught up with him, they pummeled him, complete with…

CBS host of The Late Show Stephen Colbert was not thrilled with Rep. Jim Jordan’s weekend comments that no law or amount of training would have prevented the death of Tyre Nichols. Colbert declared that Jordan was so close to getting it, but because he doesn’t want to appear woke it leads him to wonder “what point do you stop being a witness and start being evil?”

No adjective is sufficient to describe the reaction one gets from watching five Memphis police officers beat 29-year-old Tyre Nichols to within an inch of his life. He later died of his injuries in a local hospital. “Inhumane” and “senseless” are as close as it comes. While Nichols was accused of “reckless driving,” it was an insufficient charge to cause such a violent reaction by the five…

Ibram Kendi took his book tour to Comedy Central’s The Daily Show on Monday night and in the least shocking development ever, called his critics racist for not agreeing with his redefinition of the word racist. Meanwhile, new temp host D.L. Hughley flat out lied that slavery is not being taught in Florida schools.

As PBS NewsHour special on survivors of gun-related violence squeezed in a liberal agenda. Interviewees claimed the media thinks mass shootings involving whites are a national issue, but when it's blacks, nobody cares: "The media often neglects to illuminate black suffering in similar ways and to provide attention that's given to it almost as if you deserve to be shot, right?"

Having spent multiple segments decrying the disturbing beating of Tyre Nichols by Memphis police earlier this month, CBS Mornings wound down Monday’s show by bringing in racial arsonist Ibram X. Kendi to fawn over his latest attempt to spread his poison about antiracism (and how black people are still subject to inequities in all facets of their lives by white oppressors) to teens.…

ABC and Disney are tolerant of racism when it comes from their black personalities. That much was again proven on Monday’s The View when co-host Whoopi Goldberg kicked off the show by talking about the police killing of Tyre Nichols. According to Goldberg, police reform wouldn’t happen until white people were getting beaten by police like black people were.

Wesley Lowery, a former Washington Post reporter who covers police issues and race, appeared on PBS’s news roundup Washington Week Friday to talk about the brutal killing of Tyre Nichols at the hands of police after a traffic stop in Memphis, and both he and the emotional show host Yamiche Alcindor insisted anti-black racism was so widespread in America that it…

Van Jones joined CNN Tonight early Saturday morning to react to the horrible video of Tyre Nichols being beaten to death by five Memphis police officers by trying to inject racial politics into the matter early Saturday morning, claiming “we sometimes forget, unfortunately, African-Americans can also be guilty of hatred and bias and bigotry against other African-Americans.”

MSNBC’s Alex Wagner joined NBC Late Night host Seth Meyers on Thursday to decry Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s “Orwellian” and “white Christian nationalist” education policies while over on Comedy Central, Wanda Sykes wrapped up her time as The Daily Show’s temporary host by bringing on correspondent Roy Wood Jr. to provide a caricatured explanation of Missouri’s new anti-…
