[See NewsBusters for more.] This past week saw the media repeatedly attempt to connect conservatives and Republicans to a racist gunman who allegedly murdered ten African Americans in Buffalo, New York. This is a common move for journalists and it's not just related to politics. It was 12 years ago next week that PBS insisted that Christians are slaughtering people “every day.” Host Tavis Smiley, who hadn’t yet been forced out of the network in disgrace, talked to author Ayaan Hirsi Ali about the threat of radical Islam. He got defensive about the whole subject, bringing up “Christians” like Oklahoma City Bomber Timothy McVeigh.
