Shame on CBS and Scott Pelley

Pelley Claims Violence on Republicans is Self Inflicted

In a recent news broadcast, Scott Pelley (CBS News) actually blamed the recent assassination attempt on the Republican Baseball Team by a confirmed Leftist Extremist on Republicans.  Claiming that the attempt was a result of self inflicted.  His claim is (and I am paraphrasing) that Republican hate speech inspired this vicious attack.  And he further went on to explain that you wouldn't normally expect violence from a sane person, but unfortunately not everyone is sane and there is a lot of mentally ill people that will act with violence.

Based on What Pelley Said- There are More Mentally Ill Democrats than Republicans

I guess if you take Mr. Pelley's word as truthful, it is apparent that if you are Mentally Ill, then you are most likely a Democrat.  I know this is a ridiculous statement, but it is just as ridiculous as Pelley claiming that this violence on Republicans is Self Inflicted.

The Hate Speech and Calls for Violence are Coming from the Left!

Let's face reality, the hate speech is coming from the So Called Leaders and Celebrities on the Left.

  Madonna Calls for the "Blowing Up of the White House"

 Griffin Displays the Severed Head of Trump

 Depp Calls for the Assassination of President Trump

 Obama calls for Democrats to "get in the face" of Repbulicans

These are just several examples of Leaders from the Left inciting violence on Republicans through hate speech.  

Just to be fair, I looked for similar statements from the Leaders on the Right and I was only able to find one example.  That example occurred during the campaign where Trump said that he would pay the legal bill for someone to punch a protester in the face.  And to continue to being fair, there was one incident that I was able to find where a Republican Supporter actually inflicted Violence, but I was able to find numerous examples of Democrat Supporters rioting and inflicting violence on Republicans.

What is the Democratic Leadership and Mainstream Media Doing About it?

NOTHING!!!!  Sure every now and then a Dem will step up and call for an end to the violence, but I believe this is just lip service.  And the mainstream media does nothing but condone this stupidity almost to the level where they encourage it.  But mark my words, if the shoe was on the other foot, they will be outraged.

Look at the example from the previous campaign, when the media was all wound up about Trump calling them out by name as Fake News.  They felt that Trumps speeches would inspire violence amongst his supporters, and he was actually threatening the safety of the reporters.   That being said, I challenge you to name a single journalist that has been violently attacked by an extremist from the Right!

Total Hypocrisy!  And CBS and Scott Pelley should be ashamed!

Sort:  

Since CBS and the rest of the mainstream media are in bed with the Democratic Party, nothing they say or do is surprising. What is surprising is that so many Americans still watch and trust them.

Totally agree. People need to wake up and realize that they are being played
