Faux News smeared a dead unarmed African-American
teen Monday by claiming that Michael Brown may have been high on drugs
when he was shot and killed by a Ferguson police officer.
Faux News’ Jim Pinkerton had a conspiracy theory
about Ferguson that hit on all of the conservative myths and boogeymen.
Pinkerton claimed Attorney General Eric Holder is against the Ferguson
Police and was trying to cover-up evidence that would have helped the
police. Pinkerton later claimed that Brown charged at the cops, and the
media is covering it up because the media wants a riot and violence.

Alan Colmes tried to be the non-racist voice of
sanity, but this Faux News so the segment was destined to go to the
racist dumpster. There is less than zero evidence that Michael Brown was
on drugs. The evidence gathered from an autopsy done at the request of
the Brown family supports the claim that the eighteen-year-old was
trying to surrender when he was shot.
The facts contradict the wild and racist theory that
Michael Brown was high on drugs and charged the police. Faux News did
this very same type of victim smearing after George Zimmerman shot and
killed Trayvon Martin. Faux News, especially Sean Hannity, did their best
to smear Martin as a gang banging, drug using thug, who deserved to be
shot and killed.
On a deeper level, Faux News is using the killing of
Michael Brown to spread more race based fear and hatred. It’s all about
keeping the Faux News audience afraid and angry with the hope that they
will take out that fear and anger on President Obama and Democrats. Faux
News was practicing the vilest form of political division imaginable,
and they had no qualms about smearing the memory of a dead teenage boy.
The lesson here is that there is no such thing as a low that Faux News can’t reach.
