Yamiche Alcindor Deliberately Clips Trump Tweet to Make It Sound Racist;
Little-Watched, Less-Trusted Jake Tapper Immediately Retweets, Without Fact-Checking

Jake Tapper's "conservative" homoerotic fan club continues to be too in awe of their hero to take him to task or even mention his penchant for "errors."

Trump had said:

"They're [the rioters] going to destroy suburbia. And 30 percent of the people in suburbia are minorities. They say 35 percent, but I like to cut it lower. You know why? That way I can never get myself in too much trouble with the fake news."

In other words: The media always attacks me (usually falsely) for overstating black employment rates and wage increases, so now I cut the numbers a bit so they can't attack me this way.

And how did PBS "journalist" and Grievance Officer Yamice Alcindor relay it?


She clipped the quote to make it sound like Trump intended to drive minorities out of the suburbs. And in case you missed that suggestion, she set the quote up with the ominous preface, "A moment to behold."

Without fact-checking, Very Online Twitter Addict and Internet-Medited Dopamine Junkie Jake Tapper retweeted this fake news out to hundreds of thousands of people.
