Why Is Network Television Afraid of Admitting Many of America's Terror Attacks Are 'Right Wing

http://www.alternet.org/media/why-network-television-so-afraid-admitting-many-americas-terror-attacks-are-right-wing
 


In the aftermath of the deadly Las Vegas shooting rampage, which left two police officers, a shopper, and the shooters dead, one can expect all the usual talking points that follow an all too regular and familiar massacre – mental health, access to guns, the killer’s motives, and so forth. But here’s another one: the intellectual cowardice of cable news giant CNN, when it comes to reporting right wing terrorism.
The facts and back story to Sunday’s carnage are pretty well known and have been widely reported by a multitude of online and offline news outlets.
 
A married couple, Jared and Amanda Miller, walked into CiCi’s Pizza, shouted, “This is a revolution,” and then shot police officers Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo as the two ate lunch. They then ran across an adjacent parking lot to a Walmart store, where they shot a woman before retreating to the back of the store, where the woman fatally shot her husband before killing herself.
 
What is also known is that the suspects stripped the dead officers of their weapons and ammunition, before covering their bodies with the Revolutionary War-era Gadsden flag, which depicts a coiled snake and the words “Don’t Tread on Me” – a flag that is informally adopted by the Republican Tea Party.

The poor primitive thinks that terror attacks are being covered up by the media.  There was that right wing nut job that shot up the Navy base, how about Ft. Hood? Beltway snipers? Gifford's buddy?

2. Why Is Network Television Afraid of Admitting Many of America's Terror Attacks Are 'Right Wing

Because, their are No Black/Brown or other color folks to demonize, at least too few in number in the RW! And that's no fun...
If there are no minorities in the right wing, what race was the Navy shooter? Ft. Hood? This is clearly racist somehow....

6. Same Reason They Wouldn't Investigate 911

They are corporately owned and have an agenda.
Bring out the conspiracies! I bet Bush is hiding those hijacked planes on his ranch somewhere....

18. Network television isn't afraid to admit terror attacks are right wing

because network television "is" right wing, including msnbc. Yes, msnbc puts a liberal slant to the narrative, but the narrative is controlled there too. Rachel and Chris Hayes stray from the right wing narrative at times, they better be careful, they will end up like Phil Donahue, Keith Olbermann, Cenk Uygar, Martin Brashear, Dylan Ratigan.

Did you know that MSNBC is right wing?!

23. I think Rachel is there to provide cover

She allows MSNBC to market themselves an an alternative for a liberal audience, even when 80% of their content is barely distinguishable from the "mainstream" networks, while Morning Joe is a Fox News show that happens to be broadcast on MSNBC.

If the primitives would have their way, it would be nothing but conspiracy theories and communist rants wall to wall.

32. All you have to do is read FB
 
Media Matters, US Uncut, Democracy Now, there are hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands, of posts cheering these guys on. They're loving it, and can't wait for the opportunity to start shooting up 'Murka. After all, what good are these guns if ya' ain't gonna use 'em?
 

Prove it, dickhead.

Just wait Karin...there will be dozens of accounts at the DUmp alone of how they were confronted in the checkout line by someone "cheering them on".

Racist, drug-addicted white trash.  Unlike the worst kind of left-wing monsters DemocratUnderground loves to love, normal folks don't tolerate people like the Millers.  They showed up at Cliven Bundy's ranch and were asked to leave after a couple of days... they must have been stellar individuals like our new buddy a few threads over (the one crowing about his alleged superiority while he reads racist websites).

"MSNBC is Republican and most terrorists are right-wing conservatives."

DU truly is Bizzaro World.  I'm surprised BainsBane hasn't showed up yet... this is her favorite subject next to dicks and third-world criminals.

It is well established that the Nazis and any followers, neonazis, white supremecists, and the like are inseparably connected to socialism progressivism and liberalism.
I don't know why the libs try to pawn them off on conservatives. They are libs. If they have swastika tattoos like these guys did, they're not conservatives.

That "don't tread on me" flag is the closest they've ever gotten to a possible RW terrorist.  They really aren't interested in reality.

The only way that 'attacks' could possible be right-wing or conservative is if the leftist suddenly lump all the muslim attacks against people as 'Right-Wing Conservative' attacks.

Uh, most terrorist attacks have been committed by the left, ranging from labor unions, animal rights, environmental, etc.

Very likely true, but the MSM usually won't report those incidents as terrorism.

The only way they can do that is to claim muzzies are "religious fundy radicals", trying to "jam their religion down their throats".

Too close to the truth, DUmmies will never find it.
