Small reminder that when she was a college student Laura Ingraham sent a student reporter under cover to out people at Dartmouth. http://www.thedartmouth.com/article/1997/05/ingraham-85-renounces-intolerance/ …pic.twitter.com/UQmdiw4Z5K
More than 12 years later, in a piece in the Washington Post, Ingraham would say that they only printed names of students whose sexuality was known. Either way: She sent a reporter under cover to a meeting of gay students and printed everything they said in the paper.
Here's the WaPo piece. In it, she says she regrets calling the students "sodomites" but says "part" of the under cover op was "journalistically justifiable" bc the club was not forced to release its membership list to get funding, as other clubs werehttps://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/1997/02/23/test-of-devotion/4d58cb70-ed92-4ba8-aa93-7d924eda7039/?utm_term=.02ddc2e1c757 …
She does not admit, even in this piece, that the double standard they were trying to condemn might have been justifiable for a club of gay students.
Yep and today she made fun of a teenager who didn’t get into college. I’d call that a pretty long history of punching down.
Thank you for unearthing that. Something I never knew. Has she ever addressed it? It's an ominous statement about her own commitment to the rule of law.
Scroll down in the thread and I link to a wapo article where she discussed it
In the long run, the college he goes to will matter less than his voice and how he uses it to improve the lives of others. A good person is a good person, the alma mater doesn’t matter. Though, I hope Dartmouth is embarrassed of @IngrahamAngle right now.
I imagine (and hope and pray) that UPenn squirms every time the Trumps boast of going to Wharton
@Nestle Please stop advertising on Laura Ingram’s show. She is so hate filled. Makes me want to look out for the many nestle owned products and avoid them. #BoycottIngramAdverts
