Vox 'Voxsplains' CNN's Dildo Flag Blunder
NewsBusters ^ | June 28, 2015 | P.J. Gladnick

I am sure that when John Cameron Swayze began anchoring the Camel News Caravan at NBC in 1949 he never in his wildest imagination would have thought that there ever could be a day when a flag covered with dildos and butt plugs at a gay pride parade would become the focus of a television news broadcast. However such was the case on Saturday when a CNN reporter confused a parody ISIS flag with the real deal at a London gay pride parade and "treated" the audience to a detailed analysis, including an interview with a national security analyst, for over six minutes. As funny as that was, it might have been exceeded in inadvertent humor by Vox writer Max Fisher "Voxsplaining" the blunder in which the term "butt plugs" was used seven, count them, seven times.

An embarrassed CNN took down their dildo flag blunder from the web but, fortunately, Mediaite recorded it from CNN and posted the video on YouTube for us to laugh at for all eternity. Let us now look at CNN's coverage of the Isis dildo flag before beginning the Vox butt plugs countdown:

Apparently the Vox writer thinks it is not normal if folks don't instantly recognize the outlines of butt plugs.

In terms of insults this has to be on par with images of Mohammed -- let's see if the loud-mouth, brave challengers of American values have the guts to go up against ISIS.

I bet they fold. They'll run from the flag. (Fleeing fags?)

Will the media now claim that the participants in the homo parade were ‘provoking’ ISIS and that they should expect a backlash? Quite a conundrum for the leftist media when two of their favorite victim groups are at odds with one another.

A better gay rights protest would’ve been a public condemnation of the Islamists throwing homosexuals to their deaths off of tall buildings last week.

But butt plug flags are advertising for free kinky sex, nothing more.

Replace the ‘Stars and Bars’ with this gay pride flag and put a bunch of surveillance cameras around them. It will out a bunch terrorist within and at the same time symbolize what is happening to our nation through political correctness. after a number of terrorist attacks put the ‘Stars and Bars’ back where they belong.

Yes but my point is they do not have the guts to go with the aforementioned flag.. fags fleeing flag, IMO -- until they have the guts to confront Islamists like they harass Jane and John Q. Public in America.

Then they will have earned respect. But no, I am more an enemy now in their view than the fearsome ISIS.

They are also confused when they see the confederate battle flag. What makes us think they are going to get this flag correct.
Signs ,signs, everywhere signs,
blocking out the scenery, breaking my mind
do this, don't do that
can't you read the signs .

CNN is a stupid joke. They are following the lead of MSNBC.

They have no edit or copy room and just shove stupid crap in every hotel in America.

I am sure ISIS is quite interested with the homo movement.

They are drama-queen-idiots that dont expect anyone or anything to spoil their orgy.

“They have no edit or copy room and just shove stupid crap in every hotel in America.”

Well, the modern philosophy of “lean production” is to not make the customer pay for extra things or extra quality that the customer would not be able to perceive as a value. Given that these days probably 40% of Americans probably believe that Moses and Billy The Kid helped Washington win World War I’s Battle of Big Horn, why should they hire extra people and work harder for the best and most accurate reporting? It would be a disservice to the shareholders and customers alike.

While I’m not of my mother’s generation where such things were unheard of, I had to look twice to see what the markings on the flag really were.

And I do appreciate the slam against ISIS. muchly!!

It speaks well of the CNN reporter that she could not recognize a dildo or butt plug.

Or it speaks to an inability to wear contact lenses and an unwillingness to wear glasses.

Cnn really wanted to think that savage towelheads were happy about the stupid decision.
They don’t get it. When the subhuman savages get into power they kill gays.
