lying lib media BUSTED! Media caught in fake anti-Trump college football story thehornnews.com.ridder.co The mainstream media seems to be losing their grip on reality. President Donald Trump attended Monday night’s College Football Championship game between Alabama and Georgia, held in Atlanta — and the media was ready and waiting for anything to use against the president. There was little to be found, though. Trump walked out in front of a sold out stadium to thunderous applause, not the boos that the media was expecting. Trump stood on the field and led the stadium’s salute to the American flag and then retired to his box to watch the game without incident. Desperate for a spin, the mainstream media did have one moment, though. A video of Alabama’s star running back Bo Scarbrough leaving the tunnels and allegedly yelling out “FK TRUMP!” to his teammates. The media shared the video as fast as they possibly could… but there’s one problem. They never confirmed what Scarbrough said. Critics say these liberal journalists spend too much time among media elites in New York City, and not enough around hardworking young Southern boys about to play football. Bo yelled “F* GEORGIA!” about Alabama’s opponent to get his teammates pumped up, his supporters claim. It had nothing to do with the president. They could be right. Scarbrough, born and raised in rural Alabama, has a thick southern accent. He’s also in tunnel. And Alabama fans say that if you listen closely, you can hear it — and that it’s clearly Georgia (JOEJ’a). His teammates behind him are heard in the background saying it too. Don’t take our word for it, though. Here’s what Bo Scarbrough had to say about it himself — Bo Scarbrough ?@starbo06 If y’all really listen I said Georgia smh about y’all people in this world t.co 1:27 AM - Jan 9, 2018 3,2913,291 Replies 8,6918,691 Retweets 25,92725,927 likes Twitter Ads info and privacy Is it true?

If the Berkeley administration canceled Y's speech that would be one thing, and it would be completely within their rights to do that. For example, I would also expect them to not entertain a speech by David Duke, the White Supremacist. There are some folks we should all just ignore. However, and I'll keep repeating this until you get it, it is NOT ok for Berkeley professors and students to incite violence and burn the campus down in protest. That is not protected speech. That is called breaking the law. That is not engaging in productive change. The liberals are so consumed with hate at the rightward turn in this country, that they have become unhinged. The right way to have protested would have been to bring your concerns to the administration and see if they can rescind the invitation to speak. If that didn't work, then they could have created a peaceful counter protest outside the place of the speech. Or they could have invited liberal speakers to speak against Y. Or they could have simply boycotted the speech. Lot's of peaceful and legitimate ways to protest. But instead, they decided to commit crimes in protest. In this instance, the liberals turned everyone against them and lost their sympathetic cause. I call that being stupid on top of being criminal.
