Lying NBC News Falsely accuses Rush of “Racist Comments”
NBC Nightly News | 2/17/21 | NBC Nightly News. Lester Holt

Posted on 02/17/2021 4:14:56 PM PST by SomeCallMeTim

During their brief coverage of Rush’s passing, NBC news just committed journalistic malpractice. Of course, they do this in some fashion almost daily. They claimed that Rush was well known for making “racist and sexist comments”. Then, as an example, they played a tape (while printing the words on screen) of Rush saying:

“We need segregated buses.... this is Obama’s America!”

Racist ? Really ? Rush was talking about Obama’s statement that “Republicans need to get to the back of the bus.”

Rush’s statement had NOTHING to do with race. Obama wanted to segregate us based on our political beliefs.

Such a short little statement... but so damaging and libelous. How many people will actually know the context for that clip ?

Would love for Katheryn to get a couple hundred million out
of this.

Rush was NOT a racist and his black listeners will vouch for
that to a man.

The left is responsible for dividing America. They have even called for blacks only dorm rooms at colleges.

Unfortunately you can’t libel the dead.

Yeah, that’s why Rush’s right hand man was a black guy. These people are morons.

You can’t slander them, either.

No doubt why the Huffing and Puffington Post felt free to call him a bigot today.

His right-hand man Bo Snerdley is a black man.

Rush wasn't racist in the least bit. Rush could have hired anyone he wanted to be
his producer. Who did he choose? Bo Snerdly, his long time producer.

NBC “news” lies. It’s what they do.

Even when someone dies - they lie.

I used to love how Rush would do a put up or shut up on his detractors by making them prove their allegations against him. They never could. Their excuse were always “I heard somewhere...,””I read somewhere...,” or “Somebody said...” Rush would then produce the audio proving exactly what he said and the libs would sulk away ashamed. He eventually stopped doing it on his show as they made it too easy to disprove them and the libs just ended up looking silly.

The vast majority of statements about Rush like this one are from people who have never heard a thing Rush has ever said but only repeat misinformation from Leftists and media like NBC

I’ve heard him address Snerdly in the studio thousands of times, but i have never heard Snerdly speak. Has he ever talked on air?

Rush was a perfect radio host all those many years despite the swirling red hot controversies and high emotions of his audience. He NEVER was racist at all.

The filthy Left says the lie about Rush and Trump so many times that they make the idiotic Dems at home believe it must be true. But it ISN’T.

They’ll casually smear Trump or Rush with “a racist” “a white supremacist” and the other will say “Yeah, I heard that, too.” “Of course, me too.”

BS.

We have to fight this slander. Hard.

I’m deleting NBC from my TV.

I’m grieving and it’s not a good time to pick on Rush.

Nobody ever suppressed a photo of Rush with a racist like Louis Farrakhan.
