Victim shaming 101
Scalise is an extremist … After being shot, and while convalescing, now Steve Scalise needs to listen to MSNBC’s Joy-Ann Reid say Scalise was guilty of “extremism” for holding mainstream conservative views and voting on them. PJ Media has the story. Now would be a helpful time to remind Reid that the shooter was apparently radicalized by media types calling the GOP “extreme.”
Pelley says shooting was “self-inflicted” … Not to be outdone, recently demoted Scott Pelley, over at CBS News, said that the shooting of Scalise was “to some degree self-inflicted.” Matt Vespa, writing at Townhall, has the story. The media just can’t see their complicity in ratcheting up the rhetoric.
“Rage machine” to blame … Former New York Times executive editor Jill Abramson said that a Republican “rage machine” is what is causing political polarization. NewsBusters has the story. Of course the media’s overt one-sidedness and labeling of conservatives as extreme has nothing to do with the polarization. To the media, those are just facts.
