Media Style Books and codes

Many of the posts on this blog are examples of the Corporate Media lying by omission, hiding the race of the perpetrator when he is black, or of the victim when he is white.

Here, I would like to quote Sincerity.net, who points out that such conduct is contrary to the Corporate Media’s own guidelines. To paraphrase:

August 11, 1946: The [New York] Times introduced an editorial change announcing they will no longer refer to the race of persons suspected of a crime unless race is relevant to the story.

As a matter of fact, The New York Times has consistently violated its own guidelines since then, by drawing attention to the race of the perpetrator ONLY when he is white. Here are some examples cited by Sincerity.net:

2 white racists convicted in killing of radio host 2 white racists convicted in killing of radio host Two whites seized in '77 killing of a black student at Fordham U. Two whites seized in '77 killing of a black student at Fordham U. Black youth kiled by whites is called racial Black youth kiled by whites is called racial  white man gets 10 years in prison for trying to hire hit man to lynch black neighbor White suspect in black man's killing is indicted on terror charges

If we were to expand this list, to include more current examples, this post would be long indeed!

The German Press Council Stylebook is more explicit:

REPORTS ON CRIMES When reporting crimes, it is not permissible to refer to the suspect‘s religious, ethnic or other minority membership unless this information can be justified as being relevant to the readers‘ understanding of the incident. In particular, it must be borne in mind that such references could stir up prejudices against minorities. [GUIDELINE 12.1. by the German Press Council ].

Sincerity.net goes on to explain that…

German PresseKodex 12.1 was meant to protect Black US soldiers from “discrimination” and “prejudice”  due to media reports about crime committed by Blacks 5 * 6

Sincerity.net quotes the Associated Press Stylebook:

Race Identification by race or ethnicity is pertinent: […]

—For suspects sought by the police or missing person cases using police or other credible, detailed descriptions. Such descriptions apply for all races. The racial reference should be removed when the individual is apprehended or found. [Associated Press. The Associated Press Stylebook 2015 (p. 225). Basic Books. Kindle Edition.]

Readers of this blog are already aware of the extreme lengths the Associated Press takes to violate the above directive, following it only to the benefit of non-white suspects.

The Reuters Hand Book contains more elaborate guidelines:

  • Mention race or ethnicity only when relevant to the understanding of a story. For example, if someone is facing deportation, it is appropriate to give his or her nationality. Similarly, the ethnic origin of a person who receives racial threats or is the target of a racist attack is essential context. Terms of mixed ethnicity take a hyphen: Italian-American.
  • Take care when reporting crimes and court cases. The race of an accused person is not usually relevant.
  • Clearly, race is an important factor in stories about racial controversy or immigration, or where an issue cuts across racial lines. For example, if European-born people join Tibetan exiles in demonstrations against China’s Tibet policy, this is a point worth mentioning.
  • Race is pertinent in reporting a feat or appointment unusual for a person of a particular ethnic group, for example, someone born in China who becomes an international cricket umpire.

The Society of Professional Journalists has this to say:

Race: A person’s race should not be mentioned unless relevant. This also applies to references to ethnicity, sexual orientation and religion. Derogatory terms or slurs aimed at members of a racial or ethnic group may not be used unless having a direct bearing on the news, and then only with the approval of the senior editor in charge. Avoid stereotypes. Race and ethnicity may be relevant in some stories, including the following: Crime stories – A highly detailed description of a suspect sought by police can contain [skin color]. Be sure the description is properly attributed. Do not use descriptions that include only a few items or are vague, such as tall, dark clothes. [A detailed description might include a person’s complexion, facial features, distinguishing marks or tattoos, etc.]

The Nationals Association of Black Journalists has these guidelines:

Ethnicity, race: The mention of a person’s race should not be used unless relevant. This also applies to references to ethnicity, sexual orientation and religion. Derogatory terms or slurs aimed at members of a racial or ethnic group may not be used unless having a direct bearing on the news, and then only with the approval of the senior editor in charge. Avoid stereotypes. Race and ethnicity may be relevant in some stories, including the following:

  • Crime stories – A highly detailed description of a suspect sought by police can contain race. Be sure the description is properly attributed. Do not use descriptions that include only a few items or are vague, such as tall, dark clothes.
  • forced busing: Avoid because of possible negative connotations. Busing is sufficient.

Sincerity.net informs us that Canada is very much on board with this double standard. He quotes The Globe’s Stylebook:

We must be especially scrupulous about avoiding irrelevant references in stories about criminal charges or other matters in which identifying a person’s race or national origin may unfairly associate an entire group with criminal or antisocial activity.

None of the above organizations has followed its own stated guidelines. Instead, they have followed a different, unwritten, guideline:

Present the story in such a way that non-whites, especially blacks, are portrayed as positively as possible. Do the opposite for whites.

In the future, as you read this blog, and come across examples of media dishonesty, consider revisiting this post, and ask yourself if the “news outlet” in question is being faithful to its own stated guidelines.

Not even the White House can speak the truth

I’m worried for our country, and I’m worried for our freedoms, especially our freedom of speech. Kayleigh McEnany is brilliant, and maybe we’d be better off having her as president than Trump. Beauty, intelligence and a strong personality.

But even she couldn’t defend Trump’s statement, that he would not take a stance on the Confederate flag. Watch this:

Ideally, she should have been able to state that:

Many people who fly the Confederate Battle flag are patriotic Americans. Southern heritage is part of American heritage, and this flag can represent many things. Let’s not rush to condemn those who fly it as “racists.” Instead, let’s simply consider it a symbol of Southern pride.

This would be the correct way of approaching it. After all, if so many American blacks can use the word “nigger” in an innocuous way, and get away with it, then why can’t people do the same with the Battle flag?

Of course, we all know what would have happened if McEnany had put it that way; there would have been a political firestorm. Instead, she was forced to wiggle out of the question, which was posed to her several times.

It’s frustrating when even the White House press secretary cannot defend the President’s refusal to condemn the Battle flag. This is what happens when public opinion is altered by moneyed elites (the Corporate Media and “education” system). Even those in power cannot defend themselves using plain English – because the lynch mobs will come to get them.

One person who does NOT have to worry about lynch mobs is football player DeSean Jackson. From Yahoo Sports:

An Instagram story post featuring a fake quote from Adolf Hitler resulted in Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson insisting he has no hatred toward the Jewish community, then posting the same Hitler quote again.

The 33-year-old receiver drew a backlash on Monday for his initial post, which featured the fake quote in which Hitler supposedly said he would start World War III to stop white Jews in America from oppressing the Black community. Snopes has identified the quote as a fabrication originating in June 2017 and claimed to be from a book that, in reality, made no argument that Hitler had an affinity for the Black community…

As some noted the clear anti-Semitism of the quote, Jackson responded by reposting the quote with a statement saying it had been taken the wrong way and that he has no hatred in his heart.

He did not attempt to explain why the quote — which, again, is Hitler supposedly saying why he wants to exterminate the Jews — was misconstrued or not anti-Semitic.

Jackson then proceeded to post another picture to his Instagram story focusing on a passage claiming the Jews will extort America as part of their plan for world domination.

Jackson has also published two Instagram posts praising the teachings of Louis Farrakhan, who has been identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an anti-Semitic extremist.

Will Jackson be fired? Maybe, and maybe not. It’s just as likely that a simple apology will suffice. After all, he’s a member of the Godly class: An African American. There will be no lynch mobs heading his way. There will be no massive protests at his games, nor will there be a boycott of his team.

In a sense, a black football player has more power than the White House press secretary. He’s allowed to speak his mind openly. Even if he does get fired, he won’t have to hire extra security, and he’ll never want for anything.

To end on a positive note, from what I’ve seen of Kayleigh McEnany (which isn’t all that much), I wish her a long and happy career. Perhaps she’ll become a prominent conservative thinker and writer after her White House stint. I hope she has lots of white kids. Her genes deserve to be propagated.

Seattle BLM “protesters” get enriched

From Yahoo News:

One of two people hit by a man who drove his car onto a closed Seattle freeway and into a crowd protesting police brutality has died.

Summer Taylor, 24, of Seattle died Saturday evening at Harborview Medical Center, spokesperson Susan Gregg said.

Taylor and Diaz Love, 32, of Portland, Oregon, were hit by the car that barreled through a panicked crowd of protesters on Interstate 5 early Saturday morning, officials said.

Citizens pay taxes so that we may use highways for their intended purpose. We understand that once in a while, these highways must be shut down for maintenance, or for the occasional event. The article points out, regarding that stretch of I-5*,  that…

Protesters had shut down the interstate for 19 days in a row, Mead said at a press conference.

This detail is at the very end of the article. If you’ll recall, the very beginning of the article says:

One of two people hit by a man who drove his car onto a closed Seattle freeway and into a crowd protesting police brutality has died.

… the implication being that the freeway was lawfully closed. Yes, we must read the entire article before we learn that the “protesters” were, in fact, criminals. Now that somebody has died, authorities have vowed to finally do their jobs, and prohibit rioters from closing the freeway.

What about hate-crime charges against the driver? Well… that’s problematic. You see, the driver is a black African:

kelete

Judging by his name, Dawit Kelete, he’s from Ethiopia or Eritrea – doing the jobs Americans won’t do.

What about the victim? She was a “non-binary” person herself, Summer Taylor:

summer

Oh, what a complicated world our progressive rulers have created for us! An ironic one too. Don’t expect this news story to remain on the headlines very long; it will be swept into the Memory Hole. As a matter of fact, the Yahoo article, quoted above, is from the Associated Press, but I couldn’t find it there.

Finally, a hat tip to Andy Ngo, who dug up the above photos for us. Here’s the Twitter thread. Enjoy!

*Edit: I-5 is the major lifeline of the West Coast; shutting it down has major implications.

Elk Park destroyed

When I read, at Amren, that rioters had set fire to the historic elk statue in downtown Portland, I decided to head over there to survey the damage. There was no sign of the statue itself; I was told that it had been removed, and that it’s to be repaired.

This is what remains:

elk3elk4elk5elk6

It looks like they took a sledge hammer to it. The fire was still smoldering when I arrived.

This is what the police station looks like:

elk1elk2

When I asked a BLM-sympathizing relative why they would target a statue of an elk, her response was that all the pent-up rage, from decades of systemic racism, finally found an outlet – not that there was any particular reason to target the elk.

CNN, ABC, Yahoo, MSN etc. should be forced to pay for the repairs. After all, it’s the corporate media that fed lies to the gullible public all these years, leading to the rage.

Here’s a bonus shot:

Bloodsucking parasites

A friend sent me this video; it features Sister Farakhan, and it speaks for itself:

According to the most recent census, there are about 44,000,000 blacks in the US. In contrast, there are only about 6,000,000 Jews in the US, most of whom are cultural Marxists to one extent or another. In other words, most American Jews hold American blacks in very high esteem. Jewish organizations tend to support BLM. Of course, so do Christian organizations, and just about anybody with power in the US. But the above diatribe singles out Jews.

It turns out that we Jews have competition when it comes to bloodsucking. Another friend sent me an article about the State of Washington’s unemployment funds being looted by Nigerian scammers:

BREAKING NEWS …  According to Senator Ann Rivers (18th Legislative District), whose office was briefed today by the Employment Security Department (ESD), the unemployment check fraud case is now approaching $1 billion in lost state funds.

Originally, the suspected fraud loss was $350 million.

“The ESD fraud case is beyond anything originally suspected,” said Rivers. “Nearly $1 billion has been lost to Nigeria and other fraudsters.”…

“The hackers have been waiting for the right moment to attack an underprepared Employment Security Division,” said Rivers. “COVID gave them that opportunity. My office was overwhelmed with calls of people needing help filing unemployment.”

Today, Rivers was notified by ESD that each caucus can help only 20 people per week.

“I was able to get in and help people get the unemployment benefits they deserve, and I was told by ESD I can only help one person a week,” Rivers said. “This is ludricious. Period. That’s like saying to a mother with five children on the Titanic she now must choose her favorite child.”

At least when it comes to the unemployed citizens of Washington State, Nigerian scammers are greater bloodsuckers than Jews. Let’s see Sister Farakhan rant about that.

78 year old veteran murdered by “teen”

All we’re told, by wcti12.com, is that:

A teenager has been arrested in the shooting death of an elderly man in Wilson.

Wilson Police say Donald Aycock, 78, was shot and killed on Randolph Street Sunday evening.

On Monday, investigators arrested and charged Alin Gatling, 18, with open murder.

Gatling is being held without bond.

A photo of the suspect is shown:

gatling

As far as I can tell, none of the “news” outlets include a photo of the victim. I did, however, find his obituary – which makes no mention of how he died:

aycock

Donald Gerald Aycock July 4, 1941 – June 28, 2020 Donald Gerald Aycock, 78 of Wilson passed away Sunday, June 28, 2020. A graveside service will be held Tuesday, July 7, 2020 at 10 a.m. in Aycock Family Cemetery, near the crossroads of Hwy 222 and Hwy 581. The Rev. Kevin Moore and Rev. Ashley Bailey will officiate. The family will receive friends Tuesday immediately following the service at the Aycock Family Cemetery following the interment. Gerald was retired from the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Army and the 82nd Airborne Division after serving with honor and pride for over twenty years…

I’m willing to wager that if his family discovers that his obituary was used to highlight the ongoing loss of white lives, at the hands of “teens,” they would be outraged.

“How DARE you exploit the death of our beloved Donald for your HATEFUL propaganda! Shame on you!! Our dear Donald would have been HORRIFIED!!! Take it down!!!!”

I don’t know what’s sadder, the death of innocent, honorable white people at the hands of soulless thugs – or the willful ignorance of the victims, who refuse to acknowledge that they’re being picked off one by one.

I’ve met many people whose relatives were Holocaust victims. Not once have I heard one of them complain that the death of their relative is “being exploited for hateful, anti-German, propaganda.”

Normal people, when confronted with such a murder, will ask, “Why did this happen, and how can we prevent it in the future?” So far, as far as I can tell, no motive has been found. In other words, it’s “random” – which, in such cases, often means racially-motivated violence against whites. Why does this happen? Once again, it’s because “White lives don’t matter.”

Another “random” murder

In my previous post, I mentioned the suspect in a recent stabbing death in Pittsburgh. Microsoft “news’ had neglected to publish his photo.

It turns out that his victim was a homeless white man with mental health issues. From Microsoft “news:”

Banks is accused of fatally stabbing 37-year-old Gregory Michael Walker of Penn Hills while he was walking on Lincoln Avenue near Wiltsie Street Saturday night. Police said Walker was stabbed multiple times and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Minutes earlier, police said, Banks stabbed a convenience store employee in the face at near the intersection of Lincoln and Loire Way around 9:50 p.m. The victim was taken to the hospital in critical condition.

Then on Sunday, police said, another man was seriously wounded when he was stabbed around 10 p.m. Sunday in the 1500 block of Lincoln Avenue.

Here’s is the victim:

walker

Again, here is the suspect:

Melvin-Banks

Were his other victims also white? Probably. Noticeably absent from the article is any mention of hate-crime charges being filed.

Anti-white hatred is so widespread that it’s not even necessary for criminals such as Banks to bring it up as a motive. He doesn’t even have to yell, “I’m a kill you cracker!” It goes without saying. Even if Banks is psychotic, as he claimed to police, psychotics also have some sort of motive when they kill. The voices in his head were probably telling him to kill white men – and this should be a surprise to nobody. After all, “white lives don’t matter.

According to government sources, about 15% of black Americans are psychotic. Even if those statistics are inflated, as some suggest, there are still millions of psychotic blacks in America – most of whom believe they are victims of systemic racism by whites.

When professors, the media, corporations and politicians blame whites for the shortcomings of blacks, the inevitable result is that lives such as that of Gregory Walker are snuffed out.

“A man” and “a man”

Here’s a screenshot from the Microsoft “News” page today:

a man and a man

In both incidents, the suspect had already been apprehended. The top story is about murder, the suspect having stabbed several people, one of whom died. The bottom story is about attempted arson; nobody died. As you can see, the top story features a photo of a female reporter, while the bottom story features a photo of the actual suspect.

In case you were wondering, here’s a photo of Melvin Banks, the alleged murderer in the top story, which MSN chose to omit:

YouTube bans American Renaissance

Not that we needed any more evidence, but YouTube’s “Terms of Service” mean absolutely nothing; if they don’t like your point of view, they’ll ban you – regardless of whether you abide by their rules or not. It doesn’t matter.

In October of last year, YouTube banned Red Ice, even though there were no actual violations of YouTube’s rules. White Advocacy is reason enough to be banned. Red Ice videos can now be viewed on BitChute.

Now, with the Floydquisition upon us, channels that are far more tame than Red Ice have been banned. Stefan Molyneux has been banned. Though controversial at times, not by the furthest stretch of the imagination is Molyneux “hateful.” Molyneux can still be found on BitChute.

As for American Renaissance, it too has been expelled from YouTube for the crime of White Advocacy. From Amren.com:

Today, without warning, YouTube banned our video and podcast channels. We had 135,000 video subscribers and close to 20,000 podcast subscribers. YouTube also banned other channels, including that of Stefan Molyneux. This was all no doubt in honor of George Floyd.

During the Iron Curtain era, who would have suspected that 30 years later Americans would be muzzling each other? It’s trite to say this, but shouldn’t people try to debate those with whom they disagree rather than silence them? There is no more graceless way of admitting you have lost the argument than to gag your opponent.

Amren videos can still be found on BitChute. Radio Renaissance can be found here.

I encourage all my readers to sign up for BitChute, and to subscribe to the above channels.

However, we should not rely too much on BitChute; it’s based in the UK – not a country known for its support of freedom of speech.

According to Wikipedia, BitChute…

… is a video hosting service founded in 2017. It was created to allow video uploaders to avoid content rules enforced on YouTube. The platform accommodates far-right individuals and conspiracy theorists. The Southern Poverty Law Center says the site hosts “hate-fueled material”. Some creators who have been banned or had their channels barred from receiving advertising revenue (“demonetized”) on YouTube have migrated to BitChute.

In reality, as we have seen, BitChute is NOT so much a place to escape “content rules” as a place to avoid political persecution. None of the above channels actually violated YouTube’s rules.

By banning controversial voices, large platforms are actually creating ideological ghettos, where real hatred is sure to flourish. As the above Wikipedia article points out, “hate-fueled material” proliferates on BitChute – and this was inevitable due to the policies of larger platforms such as YouTube, under pressure from hate-groups such as the SPLC.

Let’s imagine that YouTube, and other large platforms, adopted a zero-tolerance policy toward Islam. Even moderate Muslims would be banned from YouTube, and they would seek refuge in BitChute – which had already been hosting many extremist Muslim channels from before. Lacking any moderation, It would only be a matter of time until the extremists gained dominance. By definition, it’s extremists who are the most prolific, and the loudest. Moderate people have other things to do, such as raising families, earning a living, and visiting museums.

Sooner or later, a Dylan Roof is going to blow up a building, or perpetrate a mass shooting – and it will be discovered that the culprit gained inspiration from BitChute. This will provide an excuse for government agencies, or perhaps international organizations, to shut BitChute down. Clearly, this is the plan.

Therefore, we mustn’t be complacent. BitChute is not a long-term solution in my opinion. We need our own platform, and it must be moderated to keep out the crazies.
