After the Discovery of Dylann Roof's Website, the Council of Conservative Citizens Is Running Scared

Charles CW Cooke published another peanut riddled floater at NRO yesterday.

On The Nightly Show yesterday, Larry Wilmore made the same mistake, explaining to his audience of clapping seals that Fox News “makes my f*cking head explode.” “With all of [the] evidence” available, Wilmore contended, still conservatives would not accept “that racial stuff” had gone down. This was a cheap shot at the time that it was fired. But, had he waited a few more hours, he would have seen just how cheap it was.

It wasn’t a cheap shot, Wilmore backed up his objection to Fox with multiple examples of Fox personalities prevaricating and trying to cast the Charleston attack as an attack on religion instead of an attack on black people. Fox’s coverage was disgusting and deserved every ounce of vitriol it received. Saying that Wilmore should have waited a few hours for Fox to feel the burn and finally get its shit together is ridiculous. NRO, demonstrating again the huge degree of overlap between American conservatives and American assholes.
