Read more at NewsBusters | "By the way, I do believe in [slavery] reparations if you could figure out what it would be," Hardball host Chris Matthews admitted to his panel during the "Tell Me Something I Don't Know" segment on the January 20 program. Matthews's comment came on the heels of syndicated columnist Clarence Page informing Matthews that Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) was being freshly criticized by the Black Lives Matter movement for "opposing racial reparations" while instead favoring "a class view" of tackling the plight of underprivileged minorities.
