Race Relations Deteriorating According to
Many Americans!
Many Americans!
It’s been a rough few years when it comes
to the subject of race in the United States. Sensationalized cases like Trayvon
Martin, Michael Brown, and Freddie Gray have led to riots, protests, and the
birth of the Black Lives Matter movement. The shooting at a Charleston church
last month led to a crusade against the Confederate Flag. Phrases like “white
privilege” – known only to liberal academics a decade ago – have become
commonplace. And a new poll from the New York Times and CBS News shows that
Americans are keenly aware of the tension. According to the poll, 61 percent of
Americans believe that race relations are generally poor in the United States.
A full 44 percent believe they are getting worse. The Times quoted one black
cook in Georgia as saying racism against the president was largely to blame.
“I’m not surprised it’s gotten worse under President Obama,” said Elizabeth
Gamble. “Because he’s black – and so he already had that strike against him
once he got into office.” Let’s take a brief time-out to look at this fancy
piece of media bias in action. It’s not often you get such an obvious example.
Elizabeth Gamble isn’t a public figure. She’s not a political expert. She has
written no books on the subject of race relations. There is no reason at all to
quote her in the article except that she says what the author wants to get
across. She might as well be a fictional character for all her importance to
the story. Her quote serves as a way for the author to work in his own opinion
without actually having to say it outright. This is how the “liberal media”
works. It is real, and it is omnipresent. - See more at:
