Will the Washington Times Retract Its Bull?
Surprise, surprise but it turns out someone over at the Washington Times has an agenda other than reporting the news.
Two days ago I received a call from reporter S.A. Miller of the Washington Times — he asked me if I condoned throwing Oreo cookies at Lt. Gov Steele or calling him an “Uncle Tom”. My immediate response was that such attacks “were dispicable and have no place in American politics — that such attacks were repugnant”
You can not find that quote in either of two Times stories on the subject.
Miller later in the interview asked me if race would be an issue — I said that civil rights and discrimination were obvious issues that mattered and that there was a diference “between stating the obvious and calling someone names” — and used a recent controversy over a fundraiser for Gov. Ehrlich as an example of something that was obviously an issue and not name calling.
So how did the paper report that interview?
“Even the spokesman for Mr. Mfume’s campaign said pelting Mr. Steele with Oreo cookies and calling him an “Uncle Tom” are simply “pointing out the obvious.”
“There is a difference between pointing out the obvious and calling someone names,” Mfume spokesman Joseph R. Trippi said Tuesday.”
First of all its Joseph P. Trippi — second it is totally inaccurate in regards to any answers I made to the reporter’s questions — FOR THE RECORD THE REPORT IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT.
If the Washington Times is a legitimate reporter of the news it will retract this BS and set the record straight.
The editors should read the reporter’s notes from the interview — because anyone who reads those notes will see that the Washington Times reported the exact opposite of what I said. They didn’t get it wrong by a few degrees — they got what I said completely wrong.
