CBS Explores Possible Racism of Coronavirus, Brings on Far-Left Guest

[See NewsBusters for more.] Could the coronavirus be racist? CBS This Morning explored that angle on Monday as reporter Jericka Duncan brought on a far-left network contributor (a man who has refused to condemn the anti-Semitism of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar). The segment began by examining the perfectly valid topic of whether certain groups of people are more likely to get the virus. But then Duncan veered into a discussion with Ibram X. Kendi, explaining, “CBS News contributor Ibram X. Kendi is also the director of the Antiracist Policy Center at American University.” Kendi said of the virus, “If we don’t have an awareness of racial disparities, we can't right now figure out what's causing those racial disparities, what policies or even lack thereof and we can't change it, right now in the moment, when people are dying and being infected.”
