For two days now, the liberal media has been pounding a false narrative about Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City, insisting that it was like a Nazi rally.
Brit Hume of FOX News was asked about this last night and said that the public won’t buy it, adding that it betrays a sense of weakness from the media.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
BRET BAIER: About the coverage of this Madison Square Garden rally, and specifically that comedian with the joke, all these headlines, uh, closing carnival of grievances, misogyny, racism, that’s the New York Times, uh, bombastic, incendiary, racist commentary, L.A. Times, Washington Post, Another Night at the Garden, how Trump’s rally echoed one in 1939, again, the Nazi reference.BRIT HUME: This is, this isn’t really coverage, is it? This is editorial commentary, and it’s pointed in one direction, and that’s away from Donald Trump. This didn’t used to be the way it was, and it is the way it has been now for some time, and it’s what a lot of people have rebelled against, and it may help to explain the failure of the news media, some, and particularly the Washington Post is an example, which lost, what, $77 million last year, and is now trying very hard to, uh, get right with the readers that may not agree with their generally liberal position.My sense about this is that, first of all, I don’t think the idea that this is reminiscent of a Nazi rally is gonna, is gonna fly with people, uh, who see the events in Madison Square Garden all the time, including rallies by Democratic politicians. It seems extreme, and it seems, and it seems to be a token of weakness.
Watch the clip below:
The media really jumped on the joke about Puerto Rico, made by insult comic Tony Hinchcliffe. Even progressive poster-boy Jon Stewart thought this was ridiculous.
The most maddening thing about all of this is that the media has actively ignored or downplayed countless, shocking examples of Jew hatred on college campuses for over a year now, yet suddenly, Trump holding a rally in New York City is proof of Nazism.
It’s absurd.
