The corporate press is clearly biased toward the Left.
No better example exists than The New York Times.
And The Times wrote one obituary that will turn your stomach.
One of the main differences between the Left and the Right is that right-wing extremists are strongly condemned by conservatives, but left-wing extremists are embraced by leftists.
The Left have a long history of keeping their radicals in the fold.
For instance, upon the death of far-left domestic terrorist Kathy Boudin, The New York Times wrote an accurate obituary for her, then hours later softened it after pushback from liberals.
The original obit read:
“Kathy Boudin, who as a member of the Weather Underground took part in the murderous 1981 holdup of a Brink’s armored truck, died on Sunday. She was 78.”
The revised version read:
“Kathy Boudin, a member of the Weather Underground imprisoned for her role in a fatal robbery but who later helped former inmates, died at 78.”
So the revision takes out the word “murderous,” and almost makes it seem as if Boudin was passively involved in a less specific “fatal robbery” when she was suddenly “imprisoned.”
The revision also made sure to add in that she helped former inmates, framing her as a reformed, do-gooder liberal and not a murderous psychopath.
Major left-wing outlets do this all the time.
The Times deleted a tweet after being shamed for quoting one of their old obits that described communist mass murderer Mao Zedong as “an obscure peasant” who rose to power and “died one of history’s great revolutionary figures.”
Upon the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al-Badhdadi, The Washington Post described him as an “austere religious scholar.”
The Post also described Iranian general Qassim Suleimani, who was killed in a U.S. airstrike, with the obituary: “Qassim Suleimani, Master of Iran’s Intrigue and Force, Dies at 62.”
Around the same time, in the obit for former Cincinnati Bengals head coach Sam Wyche, The Post made sure to mention that Wyche was reprimanded for “barring a female reporter from the team’s locker room.”
Sadly, many of the radicals of the 1960s and 1970s moved into teaching positions and other areas of liberal influence, which is largely why society is such a mess today.
For example, Boudin’s son Chesa, who was raised by other Weather Underground terrorists after both his parents went to prison, is one of the radical leftist district attorneys bankrolled by George Soros.
The terrorists who raised him—Obama adviser and ghost writer Bill Ayers and his wife Bernadine Dohrn—both got teaching positions at University of Illinois at Chicago and Northwestern Law, respectively, without ever having to renounce their radical past.
Radicals have been hiding in plain sight for decades, and it might take just as long to undo all of the damage they have done.
