From Newsbusters (emphasis added):
With the opening subject of "Fox News Sunday" being last week's controversial termination of Agriculture Department official Shirley Sherrod, Dean said, "I think Fox News did something that was absolutely racist. They took a, they had an obligation to find out what was really within the clip."
Dean continued, "They have been pushing a theme of black racism with this phony Black Panther crap and this, this business, and Sotomayor and all this other stuff...The Tea Party called out their racist fringe, and I think the Republican Party's got to stop appealing to its racist fringe."
That apparently was all host Chris Wallace could stand, for he struck back and struck back hard beginning with, "I know facts are inconvenient things, but let's try to deal with the facts."
Seeing Dean sputter and blink his eyes, blanching at reality and yet forcing himself to deny it, is fun to watch. It's fascinating to watch a human being willfully make the break from reality.
"Phony Black Panther crap?" Wow. I guess he doesn't really watch what's going on in the world ... but, that would require building a bridge back to reality.
It's good to see that there are a few journalists left who will fire back at a distortionist and list the facts, rather than allow a liar to blather on and on, spewing their lies and delusions without challenge ... or fact check ... or reality check. Hooray for Wallace!!
