I just think it's 100% awesome how some people despise some 'freelance' editors but laud other editors as hero's of America and Freedom...

The hypocrisy of RWN's is just astounding...

so we're in agreement that NBC News = Breitbart.tv, just the liberal version?


Excellent.

I wouldn't say me and you are in agreement about anything.


Unless of course you want to discuss how me posting in this thread quadrupled the number of responses in it...

You don't see the difference between one being a catalyst for riots and the other not?


Where is ACORN these days?

The guy you asked about has a Wiki page, lots of interesting tidbits here.

Well yes I agree that the whole ACORN thing did cause some riots, so that's pretty bad. But the Zimmerman thing directly involved a death/murder.


ACORN is defunct (they morphed into something else to get away from the ignorance and hatred of the right) because of the slander and hatred of the right although they have done/did nothing wrong. It's just another way the right destroys America and local communities...

And quite possibly a fall guy/gal.

Possible of course, but highly unlikely.

Dateline NBC ran a story about the case right around the time of the Today show piece (sorry I am looking but at this point I have so far been unable to determine which aired first). I know that the Dateline piece aired the 911 calls completely unedited while the Today show's version was of course heavily edited. Given this it appears as though nothing systemic was going on and it was the work of one person, or perhaps a few people, associated strictly with the Today show, which is also the worst show on TV as my thread from last week illustrates.

ACORN never did anything wrong? Odd. No voter registration fines or convictions?
