NPR Blogger Hammered After What She Said About ‘Diverse Sources’ and ‘White Guys’
The Blaze ^ | 7-7-2014 | Zach Noble

NPR’s education team sent out a curious tweet Wednesday that prompted an online backlash.

“I reach out to diverse sources on deadline,” the tweet from @npr_ed said. “Only the white guys get back to me.” The tweet seemed uncharacteristic for NPR, an outlet that fired analyst Juan Williams after he made remarks about feeling “nervous” if he sees people dressed in “Muslim garb” on an airplane.Kamenetz said she had mistakenly sent the tweet from the NPR education account instead of her own and that she regretted it.

Pretty hot, but she’s got that feminist “mean face” thing going on, that is not flattering.

If I were Laz, I’d hit it, then quit it!

“Combination of lack of religious principals, fundamental unhappiness, lack of critical thinking skills, and a belief that sex makes them liberated equates to a woman that is so simple to bed randomly it should be illegal.”

Or as my dad would say, “liberal chicks are for practice, but you marry a good conservative woman.” and it worked.

Yep, but sometimes, that is how a conservative is born.

“Ditto for organ donation —Leroy keepin’ it real (and keeping his organs).”

Can’t blame them on that count. After all, they cannot harvest organs from dead people, you have to still be alive for that operation to work. Of course, you won’t survive that operation.

You forgot a high likelihood of having contracted at least but probably several stds. I have known of married, liberal men who went after the easy liberal women and ended up bringing chlamydia or something else home to their wife.

The stories did not have happy endings.

She practices that face in front of a mirror.

No, really. They all do.

I find thinking about that when I talk with them provides the perfect amount of smile on my side to undermine their pretense. And for the ones who then dig in... game on.

These are not nice people. Getting you to think otherwise is well over half of their game. For many of them, it is all of their game.

They make hyenas look dainty.

Some of the comments here are disappointing. This might be her “Damascas Road” moment. Wait and see.

That face just tells me: “If I call this lady ‘sweetheart’, hilarity will ensue”. I’m a bit of a troublemaker, I guess :)

True story. Back in the day....

I had an acquaintance who, to put it bluntly, would screw large hole in a small tree. Or a small hole in a large tree. But I digress...Anyway. He gave his fiance an STD. She thought he hung the moon. Sweet girl, kinda plain, good chick. Really. So, when he found out what he had he immediately jumped on her for “giving him a disease”. Everyone knows a good defense is a great offense. She was kinda naive and figured she must have gotten it off a toilet seat. Or something.

So, my point is. Men are pigs. At least a good percentage.

I'd screw her brains out. Probably regret it later. Or not....

donating organs creeps me out. I like my organs where they are.

I may be wrong but I'm fairly sure they wait until you're dead before they slice em' out.

Most of the time. But if the organ donation truck gets there before the ambulance in NYC, don’t count on it.
