Default The Associated Press, MSNBC, CNN, ABCNews, Time Magazine Are All Racist

Yup, folks..!! Everyone's racist except for Patters..!!

Every single one of these outlets covered the exact same AP feed. And every single one carried the exact same paragraphs quoted below.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23390164/
http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/02/28/...ref=newssearch

"For some groups, the incarceration numbers are especially startling," the report said. "While one in 30 men between the ages of 20 and 34 is behind bars, for black males in that age group the figure is one in nine."

The racial disparity for women also is stark. One of every 355 white women aged 35 to 39 is behind bars, compared with one of every 100 black women in that age group.

Default The NY Times and Boston Globe Are Also Racist

Yup, folks..!! Everyone's racist except for Patters..!! Seriously... need I go on..?

Here is an excerpt from the Boston Globe (a wholly owned division of the NY Times). According to the link, this article came from the NY Times News Service.

http://www.boston.com/news/nation/ar...ion_nears_16m/

Incarceration rates are even higher for some groups. One in 36 Hispanic adults is behind bars, based on Justice Department figures for 2006. One in 15 black adults is, too, as is 1 in 9 black men between the ages of 20 and 34.

The report, from the Pew Center on the States, also found that only 1 in 355 white women between the ages of 35 and 39 is behind bars, compared with 1 in 100 black women.

Default Uh oh... CBS News is racist too... and so's the NY Daily News

Yup, folks..!! Everyone's racist except for Patters..!!

CBS News and the Daily News picked up the same AP feed as all those other media outlets did. Seriously... I can't find a single article anywhere that does not have this information in it... and I challenge anyone in here to do so if they can.

Default Obi-Wan defends the MSM

Yes, Obi, unless someone can explain the value of this information, it's racist. What it is showing is that blacks are incarcerated at much higher rates than whites:

"While one in 30 men between the ages of 20 and 34 is behind bars, for black males in that age group the figure is one in nine."

That would be relevant if it showed they were from similar economic, etc. backgrounds (and in that sense it's relevant data for a research center), but otherwise I don't see what else it tells you. Obi, you are helping to demonstrate that the so-called liberal MSM is not so liberal, proving yet another point of the more progressive members of the forum. Thanks.
