New York Times columnist David Brooks supported journalist Katie Couric’s decision to edit out the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s criticism of athletes who kneel to protest the national anthem — according to Couric herself.
In her new memoir, Going There, journalist Katie Couric admitted that she edited comments from the now-deceased Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for her 2016 interview with Yahoo! News to protect her from severe public backlash. The Justice’s crime? Criticizing the national anthem kneelers.

Advocating censorship is a hallmark of a dictator.

Just another example of re-writing history. If RGB is ever researched don't know why Couric's threw out the quote in RGB book will throw RGB out of context of who she was. Couric did no service to the truth and the future. Also, Couric throws herself out as a reliable witness to the truth.

Yes, and the only people who hear about these things are people who read conservative web sites. We are banging our heads against the wall if we think any of these scandals will become common knowledge.

Brooks is a faux conservative.
To: ChicagoConservative27
So the MSM is still being the MSM, lying to support the left's agenda.
Might as well point it out.

Couric says she “believed” 83-year-old RBG “didn’t fully understand the question” when she disparaged kneelers.
To Couric’s disturbed thinking, RBG had COMMITTED a mortal sin.
Couric wasn’t gonna let that be known.
So Couric resorted to the ol’ reliable leftie standby........censorship.

“Katie Couric admitted that she edited comments from the now-deceased Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for her 2016 interview with Yahoo! News to protect her from severe public backlash. “
Complete BS. These media people are communist propagandists. That peculiarly American type of millionaire communist. But communist propagandists nonetheless. These people are our enemies. Actual real enemies. They are not fellow citizens we disagree with because they knowingly work for a foreign globalist power. Traitors and renegades.

...to protect her from severe public backlash... To protect the Party Line from criticism. No surprise that Brooks was involved - Couric is too stupid and gutless to do it on her own.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Is anyone that has any sense surprised?
