Comments on: Imaginary leftist ninjas stalk right-wing Princetonians http://www.btcnews.com/btcnews/1776 BTC News: News, politics, opinion and satire Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:52:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Weldon Berger http://www.btcnews.com/btcnews/1776/comment-page-1#comment-1120678 Weldon Berger Tue, 18 Dec 2007 17:37:25 +0000 http://www.btcnews.com/btcnews/1776#comment-1120678 Brian, if you follow the link you'll find that the posted story is in fact still uncorrected. I know that actually checking information gives Fox News viewers the willies, but whatever. Further, there was plenty of outrage on campus, some of which I linked to; unfortunately it was outrage fueled by a hoax. And finally, you're a prime example of the truthiness syndrome: just because it was a hoax doesn't mean that all the things it represents to you aren't true. You're the perfect Fox follower.

You'd know that if you actually bothered to watch, but I know that Fox News causes liberals to break out in boils, so I understand. Besides that I think that even if the attack here was made up, it does show something, especially when compared to other recent fictional attacks. When a professor faked hate crimes against herself the entire campus went insane. When a black stripper claimed to be raped by white Duke students the media swallowed it whole and tons of professors and other figures convicted the boys before any facts came out. But here there was no outrage on campus because the student was conservative, and much of the campus thinks all conservatives are hateful monsters anyway. This attitude isn't surprising after the events at Columbia involving Jim Gilchrist and other events involving David Horowitz and Alberto Gonzales. Libs are the most intolerant people around.
