Similarly, a lot of black women are convinced that the media are out to promote whiteness.

Not surprisingly, Bryant’s latest race-baiting condemnation of American sports is attracting attention from media who speak his left-wing language. NPR, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes and The Nation magazine all gave the book fawning attention.

New York Times Reports ‘Black Workers’ Wages Are Finally Rising’ — Headline Altered for Paper

8th February 2020

The New York Times published a rather shocking article for Saturday’s newspaper. Online, the headline was an attention-grabber:

Black Workers’ Wages Are Finally Rising
Their pay is increasing after a decade of stagnation. One man’s story shows the hope — and limitations — with that shift.

Wait. So black workers’ wages stagnated….all through the Obama presidency. This is a rather stunning headline. This is NOT the headline that made the Saturday paper, published on page B-1. Instead, it was “He’s Gained A Foothold, But Worries About Falling.”

NY Times’ Stark Romney Reversal: From Racist Oddball to Defiant Hero

Vox: Here’s a Cool New Racist Way to Demean White Women: Call Them Karens!

7th February 2020

Steve Sailer keeps you up with the latest fashions.

It’s almost as if it’s fashionable to racistly insult whites for being white these days.

From ‘robber barons’ to ‘black market’ to ‘price gouging’, the first step in a hate campaign is to think up a catchy smear-name for the target. If academics pick it up and embed it in the culture, so much the better.

Strange New Respect, Romney Edition

6th February 2020

Scott Johnson at Power Line connects the dots.

The New York Times is nothing if not predictable. In the age of Trump, it has become even more so. Having pioneered the “strange new respect” profile genre — i.e., the laudatory profiles of Republicans or conservatives who “get above their raisin’” to join the sanctified line of the Democratic Party — the Times owed Romney, and the Times has now delivered.

The Primary Mechanism of Your Oppression Is Not Hidden at All

2nd February 2020

Read it.

The nonstop campaign by bought politicians, owned news outlets, and manipulated social media platforms to control the dominant narratives about what’s going on in the world contribute vastly more to the sickness of our society than government secrecy does. We know this from experience: any time a whistleblower exposes secret information about the malfeasance of powerful governments like NSA surveillance or Collateral Murder, we see not public accountability, nor demands for sweeping systemic changes to prevent such malfeasance from reoccurring, but a bunch of narrative management from the political/media class.
