NewsBusters Podcast: Just Call Them the Southern Poverty FRAUD Center #Political
The Justice Department has indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center for financial fraud, taking money from leftist donors and paying informants inside racist and extremist groups and trying to hide the money trail as they "fight extremism and hate." Naturally, the leftist networks and newspapers don't want to get into the ugly specifics of the indictment underlining that scam.
MRC senior research analyst Bill D'Agostino and CNS News managing editor Craig Bannister joined the show.
On Thursday morning, The New York Times offered a front-page story laying out all the conservative complaints about the group in recent years, but not their fraudulent payoffs.
The SPLC has been a favorite elitist media source for decades to warn constantly of a dangerous "far right" threat to America, from neo-Nazis to the Ku Klux Klan. From the Oklahoma City bombing to the January 6 riot, the "Hatewatch" theorists have been gurus for the media wanting to scare everyone about the powerful right-wing extremists.
After the indictment, the Democrats came out and said "this is just paying informants like the FBI or the cops." But the informants are often not just keeping tabs, they're pushing moves. So in this case, if the SPLC informant is helping push a far-right rally in Charlottesville that becomes a huge national news story, which leads to a massive influx of donations to SPLC, isn't that a scam?
Speaking of sneaky tactics, voters in Virginia very narrowly approved a referendum on redistricting. We were inundated with dishonest ads about restoring fairness and restoring the voices of the people with these bizarre districts. The national media pretty much ignored this, after they treated redistricting in Texas as a national scandal. It depends on which party is doing the map-shaping.
We also discussed the forthcoming White House Correspondents Dinner, and how all the retired leftists like Dan Rather put out an open letter screeching for more #Resistance to Trump's appearance on stage. Finally, we recall Joy Behar winning our last Worst Media Quote of the Week contest. In the midst of Trump sharing a meme where he looked like Jesus, Joy was trying to say Jesus was more modest than Trump, but this she ended up suggesting it was arrogant for Jesus to tell people he was the Messiah.
