CARELESSLY REPEATING SLANDER


Really, would you expect anything else from the Ol’ Dirty Emerald?


Take this, from Ben Fuchs’ abysmal 11/27 “Declaration of cultural war” Emerald article: English prof. Linda Kintz, “a native of Texas, said many prominent Southern politicians, such as Mississippi native and Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, have been tied to historically racist organizations and have helped pass what she said were fundamentally racist policies.


Ahem.


See here as the Washington Post tries to make a story out of very little.


Second, direct your browsers to the Senate page of this former KKK member.


Sen. Lott: Republican. Rightist.

Sen. Byrd: Democrat. Leftist.


Surely this couldn’t have informed Prof. Kintz’s choice of targets. Could it?
