Mr. Zack Burgess of the Philadelphia Tribune is horrified that the world media did not go on a celebration frenzy when a Nigerian named Adebayo Ogunlesi recently purchased London’s Gatwick Airport for 1.455 billion pounds. Mr. Burgess is in the process of doing a story on this purchase and recently put out a query on the Internet for people to interview. He wants to interview historians and psychiatrists and educators. It is Mr. Burgess’ twisted focus that is so typical of the American Liberal Media. Mr. Burgess’ Internet solicitation made the following observation:
“We often are quick to hear and see images on television of African Americans in disparaging situations like jail, poverty, prostitution, etc. But we hardly hear about the good of our African American tycoons, lawyers, doctors, etc. Now, the question is, why did the mainstream media keep this so very, very quiet? I was even more surprised that not even the BBC covered this story, or any of the other major news networks including CNN!”
Where is Mr. Burgess going with this little inquiry? Well, he gets to the point by saying:
“I know this is rather controversial, but it’s a story that needs to be tackled. Furthermore, is this the reason the president is under such fire…because we’re not used to seeing an African American with such power outside of entertainment. How do we change such a problem that has been talked about in the African American community for years, but hasn’t been talked about enough publicly?”
Now we get it! Barack Obama is under fire because he is black – not because he is a Marxist/Socialist/ left wing radical who is systematically taking America apart. For Mr. Burgess and the political left they can’t accept that Americans might be down on Mr. Obama for what he has done and is doing. It has to be about race for them.
Mr. Burgess, you and your media friends are living under the greatest denial cloud that has ever been floated.
