Queer Standards At The Post
By Reed Irvine and Cliff Kincaid
December 2, 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Washington Post is probably the nation’s most influential newspaper. It is the one paper that is read by most, if not all, members of Congress and their staffs, senior Washington officials, judges and journalists. The Post is also one of the few newspapers that has an ombudsman, an employee who fields complaints and defends or criticizes the editors and reporters who are targets of criticism. The current ombudsman, a woman named E. R. Shipp, is the best the Post has had for several years, but in her column on Nov. 14, she presented a shocking defense of a queer news judgment by the Post’s editors.
Up to the day her column ran, the Post had carried only one 59-word news brief about the brutal murder of a 13-year-old boy named Jesse Dirkhising by two homosexual men in Rogers, Arkansas. The boy died on September 26, after having been drugged by one of the men and repeatedly raped and sodomized with various objects by the other. He had been tied face down on a mattress. His underwear had been stuffed in his mouth and duct tape placed over it. He had died of asphyxiation while his tormentors were eating in the kitchen of their apartment.
The two homosexuals, twenty-two year-old Joshua Brown, and thirty-five-year-old Davis Carpenter, were arrested and charged with six counts of rape and one of capital murder. The prosecutor in the case said that what he saw in their apartment was "perhaps the most horrific thing he had witnessed in his 11 years as a prosecutor." This was not a hate crime. It was a horrible sex crime. The two sex perverts were torturing a 13-year-old boy for their sexual gratification.
His step-father knew Davis Carpenter, and the boy was supposed to be working with Carpenter at a hair salon on weekends, learning hair dressing. According to his grandmother, the boy had been spending weekends at Carpenter’s apartment for two or three months because his home was thirty miles away.
This story was big news in Arkansas. The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette carried eight stories about it beginning on September 28. The AP bureau wrote seven stories, none of which was distributed nationally by the AP. The story finally got the attention of the AP in New York when the Washington Times ran a story on October 22 on the national media’s blackout of this brutal murder. The AP then put a five-hundred-word story on its national wire on October 29.
The Washington Post ran over eighty stories about the murder of Matthew Shepard, a homosexual student in Wyoming last year. It used only one-tenth of the AP story on Jesse Dirkhising. When critics charged that it had suppressed the story because it showed the dark side of homosexuality, the ombudsman defended the paper in her column.
She said the Post does not cover murders outside the Washington area unless "it’s a case of mass murder, has caused a large local sensation or raised a larger social issue." Jesse Dirkhising’s murder caused a large local sensation. It also raises an important issue. Should our media promote a sexual perversion that publicly celebrates sadistic behavior and the sexual exploitation of children?
She deserves your name. The simple truth is that the Post is pro-homosexual, liberal, fish wrappings. They will never do anything that would show the depths of depravity that the homo-sodomites are participating in. I watched an interview with a homo with AIDS. He admitted to having sex with literally hundreds of men he had never met. Before he got AIDS he also got the following MULTIPLE times: clymidia(sp?), gonnoreaha, syphilis, Hep A, Hep B, and the list went on and on.
Your title above says it all: "Queer Standards."
I guess reporting the horrors that go on in Rwanda is their way of 'promoting' slavery, rape, & murder. Reporting how many Americans are infected with HIV is their way of 'promoting' AIDS.
Reporting the death of Shepard is their way of 'promoting' beating up homosexuals.
Sticking to a lie requires you to tell more & more lies. Soon you can't turn around without encountering one of your own fabrications.
The Washington Post is just a mouthpiece for the New Butt Order (NBO). As such, they must obey their master, Satan, whatever he command them to do.
Should our media promote a sexual perversion that publicly celebrates sadistic behavior and the sexual exploitation of children?
Elton John, and the male sex dancers in cub scout uniforms being the most recent case in point.
According to news articles and reviews published some years ago of "The Band Played On," a book about the early days of AIDS by Randy Shilts, AIDS may have first been spread across North America by a male airline steward who picked it up from a Haitian or African and visited homosexual bath houses across the country while on the job. Shilts, of course, blamed the epidemic on Ronald Reagan's heartless refusal to fund AIDS organizations generously enough.
But AIDS remains the only deadly public epidemic in history for which public policy is, in effect, to encourage its spread and protect those who actively and sometimes deliberately spread it. Since the chief victims of AIDS are homosexuals and drug addicts, this is hardly kindly to these groups, although such is the pretence of the AIDS establishment.
They value free sex over the lives of their fellow victims.
What kind of idiot parents would allow their 13-year-old son to spend unsupervised time with a male hairdresser? On second thought, with any adult male at all?
