Journalism professor Nikole Hannah-Jones spreads Rittenhouse trial falsehoods

Howard University journalism Professor Nikole Hannah-Jones quickly took to spreading falsehoods about Kyle Rittenhouse after his verdict.

A Kenosha County, Wisconsin jury on Friday found Rittenhouse not guilty on all counts stemming from his August 2020 killing of two people and wounding a third who attacked him during a riot.

In response to the verdict, Hannah-Jones, who touted her Pulitzer Prize award when applying for a journalism teaching job at the University of North Carolina, repeated falsehoods about the facts of the case.

“Even if you feel the jury got it right for legal reasons, what kind of person are you to celebrate *someone* who went armed to a protest with an illegal gun and killed two people,” she tweeted on Friday. But Judge Bruce Schroeder had ruled prior to the jury decision that Rittenhouse did not carry an illegal gun under Wisconsin state law.

Hannah-Jones also repeated the falsehood that Rittenhouse carried the gun illegally into Wisconsin.

I think she’s making a lefty, communist approach to what others on FR have also said.

“What business did this 17 year old kid have going to this, exposing himself himself to danger? “

I’ve heard it on FR. I even thought it myself before remembering that he had three freedom do whatever he wants, wherever he wants. He was fully within the law to be there. Doing what he was doing, with a rifle.

Our colleges and universities are full of professors who are completely clueless and oblivious to reality “teaching” rooms full of students. This is why so many college students come out of those places more stupid than if they had never attended a day of school.

He was not carrying an illegal weapon, he was not the aggressor - they attacked him, not the other way around.

another moronic black liar being promoted by the Media Moguls who heads up the largest production line of liars on the face of the planet. The moguls and their lying underlings should be dangling from trees and lamp posts.

Surely you don’t expect a reporter to do any research do you?

Maybe it was foolish and he should not have been there...but that’s beside the point.

Let’s say you go into a “bad part of town” by yourself - not very smart, but that doesn’t entitle other people to try to harm you - if you get them first, it is still their fault for attacking you and you had the right to defend yourself. They have no right to do that because you may have been unwise in going there.

Well, I have a problem with a School of Journalism in general. It ranks with the schools of gender studies and ethnic studies. If you want to do journalism, write! You don't need a college-level school to teach you that.

Q. “ what kind of person are you to celebrate *someone* who went armed to a protest with an illegal gun”

A. One of the many liberal supporters of Gaige Grosskreutz

I think the biggest problem in the African-American community is the emasculation of its male population. Black women dog black men everywhere, humiliate them when they’re little kids and refuse to respect them as real men when they growup, hence the hyphenated last names.

When the cops abandon you to anarchy, somebody has to take out the trash.

And it turns out he made the right decision. One question nobody’s asking is, what would have happened that night in that neighborhood had Kyle not been there? I could be wrong, but I believe that what happened to him put a damper on everything that followed.

I think he made the right decision going to that neighborhood. And I think he made the right decision bringing that gun. And I also think he made the right decision knowing how to use that gun. When the cops refused to protect your neighborhood those that stand up to protected are the heroes. And 17 is not too young. Just look at us history.

Pulitzer Prizes are awards liberals give to each other for writing pieces that uphold and/or expose things that uphold white liberal 'elite' beliefs...

Has anyone ever heard of any significant discoveries or papers emerging from Howard University which benefitted mankind? Cancer breakthroughs? Solutions to math problems?

Thought not.
