    THIS RIGHT HERE is why we are starting @TheNorthStar. NBC News just informed its staff NOT to call Congressman Steve King’s public embrace of white supremacy racist. Read this foolishness. This is why we must have a media company that we control from top to bottom.pic.twitter.com/UaRNGLlNti

        Just for accuracy they later today revised the policy, the one they never should have made.

        Pretty standard corporate jargon. They don't want to be liable for what's said, otherwise they can be sued. If "someone else" says it and they're just "reporting it", it's fine.

        Sure they can be sued but ultimately the courts will decide that King is a racist. Not like there isn’t an abundance of evidence proving that notion.

        Ideally, though, all news agencies are supposed to be unbiased and just report facts, what's been witnessed or said, and let the public decide. (The main problem with fox news is their opinion shows which are treated as "facts" by the viewers.)

        @KeishaBlain Y'all might find our piece on the racism behind the concept of "Western Civilization" useful? From profs who've spent way too much time in classes called "Western Civ."https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/01/15/steve-king-says-he-was-just-defending-western-civilization-thats-racist-too/?utm_term=.403ab6c3e3ba …

        I’ve seen tweets stating that NBC News is “erring on the side of caution”. I read mischief cloaked as impartiality. Nonsense.pic.twitter.com/bJjrsVrBXF

        Well, NBC like all big media is constrained by legal considerations. If you want to concentrate on something very insidious, try taking on the why's & wherefores of how we are the most litigious country in the world.

        I must refrain from denouncing @NBC as #racist, as I require one to 2 months to remember to sign my cheques w/ 2019, not 2018-so it's challenge for NBC: not only must they date all staff memos w/ 2019, instead of 1918, but also that racists are bad....just as they were in 1918!
