Hispanic Group Alleges Hate Speech on Cable News

We read:
"In a petition to the FCC this week, the National Hispanic Media Coalition claims that hate speech is "prevalent" on national cable news networks and wants the government to do something about it.

That was one of the assertions made by the group in a formal request that the commission open a notice of inquiry into "the extent, the effect, and possible remedies" to what it said was a pervasive problem, and not just on conservative talk radio.

NHMC, a nonprofit LA based media advocacy group, cited a 2007 Media Matters study that concluded that "the alleged connection between illegal immigration and crime" was discussed on 94 episodes of CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight, 66 times on Fox's Bill O'Reilly, and 29 times on Glenn Beck's Headline News show.

Media Matters is just a Leftist propaganda outfit but they are right that there is some airing in the media of the fact that immigrants have a high rate of crime. The Hispanic crime rate lies in between the black and white crime rates. See here. I think truth is still a defence in the USA.

Someone should point out the simple fact that as ILLEGAL aliens their very presence here is a crime to start with.

And of course we can all see how very law abiding and peaceful they all are south of the border right now.

The truth sounds like hate to those who hate the truth.

The FCC has no authority over cable anyway. They can only police free over the airwaves broadcasts, which anyone can receive. Cable and satellite radio you have to choose to receive, and pay for.

The Left doesn't want the truth. The Left can't handle the truth!

It is true that truth is considered hate to those who hate the truth.
Illegal immigration is a satanic thing to do. Breaking every single law.
The Americans should wake up before damage is irreparable.

A long time ago in a New York West Side neighborhood far, far away, them criminal Puerto Rican Sharks attacked the innocent American as apple pie Jets who were an evangical offshoot of the Boy Scouts of America.

That's when the Hispanic Crime wave really got underway on the American continent....

Or, maybe, was it when Senor Cortez landed in Central America?
