Andrea Mitchell Cites Farrakhan as Evidence of 'Inclusive Group' at Aretha's Funeral

On Friday afternoon, during one of the rare liberal media acknowledgements of Louis Farrakhan's prominent presence at Aretha Franklin's funeral, MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell gave an odd underreaction as she cited it as evidence of an "inclusive group" being on stage.

As her Andrea Mitchell Reports show gave live coverage of the event, at 12:06 a.m. Eastern, the MSNBC host listed several of those appearing on stage. She began: "It's interesting to see the panoply of civil rights leaders. Of course, right there at the church, we see Reverend Al (Sharpton), we see the Reverend Jesse Jackson who has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease but was so close to Aretha Franklin and is part of that legacy."

She then got to Farrakhan and noted that he is "very controversial," but then, rather than doing the obvious thing and commenting on how astonishing or hypocritical it is to see him invited to such a high-profile public event and to have a former President appear with him, she merely called his presence evidence of inclusion.

So according to Over The Hill Andrea, it’s quite ok for Black Nationalist Racists to show their faces

That’s “inclusive”

But the group that had a permitted Constitutional right to assemble in Charlottesville?

Given the liberal’s use of “inclusive”, guess our bodies should be “inclusive” to cancer.
No fairness in requiring that every cell in our bod actually be there for a good purpose.

Calypso Loui is an *ss, pure and simple.

Well, she probably would have said the same if Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright showed up at either Aretha’s or McCain’s funeral.

Is Andrea trying to change the subject at NBC from executive sexual misconduct to media hypocracy?

Blacks respect Rev. Farrakhan. He’s one of them. White liberals with they’d be quiet about it. They don’t like having to explain Louis Farrakhan to the white swing voters they’re trying to court.

beethovenfan @2: "She is REALLY stupid."

Next to the dictionary's definition of "hull-crushing abyss of stupidity" is Andrea Mitchell's picture.

With a face that’s perfectly suited for talk radio, the world’s most despicable self-loathing Jew publicly condones the presence of America’s most notorious Jew-hater, who constantly calls for their global extermination. Unfortunately, neither David Duke nor Adolph Eichmann were available to complete her rich mosaic of inclusive diversity.

He’s an angry hate-filled racist.

Anyone, of any race, color, or creed, who takes what Farrakhan, Sharpton, or Jackson says seriously is brain damaged and gullible. And just freakin’ STOOPID! These are bona fide haters, race baiters, and antisemites who make quite a nice living defrauding people, deliberately bringing about racial division, and cheating hugely on their taxes. Why any of them is not behind bars beggars the imagination.

Andrea and the objective MSM listen adoringly on Hilary's campaign plane as she expounds on her "impending presidency."

Yes Sally, Farrakhan was allowed to attend, and our President was asked not to attend.

That was John S. McCain in a nutshell.

Andrea is on my list along with Nina Totenberg, Hillary and a few others I can’t remember right now.

I always can remember Andrea tho. She is that outstanding as a dishonest person. I have noticed she is really skilled at misleading people.

I remember my Sister and Brother-in-Law watched a piece she did on gun control and then told me all kinds of things which were not true.

I explained the facts and they actually thanked me for correcting them.
