Larry Elder: Had ‘News’ Media Done Its Job, Obama Would Not Have Become President

Truth Revolt- A photojournalist withheld publication of a 2005 photograph of a smiling then-Sen. Barack Obama with a beaming Louis Farrakhan, the anti-Semitic, anti-white leader of the Nation of Islam.

The occasion was a meeting with the Congressional Black Caucus. The photographer, Askia Muhammad, said that almost immediately after he took the picture a CBC staffer called and said, “We have to have the picture back.” Muhammad later surrendered the disk with the photo to Farrakhan’s chief of staff. “I gave the picture up at the time and basically swore secrecy,” Muhammad said in an interview with the Trice Edney News Wire. “But after the (presidential) nomination was secured and all the way up until the inauguration; then for eight years after he was President, it was kept under cover.”

Why this concern in 2005 when then-Sen. Obama, just elected, had not announced his plan to run for the presidency? The Jerusalem Post writes: “As there was already talk in 2005 of Obama running for president, Muhammad said he and others did not want to harm the Democrat’s chances. It isn’t clear who was employing Muhammad at the time, but he had previously worked for the Nation of Islam publication, The Final Call.”

Would the photo have mattered? Could it have derailed Obama’s chance to become president?  read more

  1. Same goes for
    the judiciary (at many levels),
    the Hawaii Sec of State,
    the FBI (before Obozo even had the chance to commandeer it),
    the SS Admin,
    the McCain campaign,
    the entire membership of Democrat Party

    how many ‘patriots’ FOLDED in the face of this Trojan Horseshit?

  2. As the media sees it, they did their job. And got 8 years of a scandal free administration with 6 years of Sarah Palin jokes on late night tv as a cherry on top.

    All for the low low price of not having to do anything except repeat what Ben Rhodes told their know nothing asses or, like Glenn Thrush, let Hillary edit his columns prior to publishing.

    And not a one was fired. Many were promoted. And JournOlist 2.0 continues to this day.

  3. As Cliche Guevara wrote.
    Goebbels was not “confused” or “mislead.”
    Neither are our “media.”
    They take their model from Der Sturmer, TASS, Pravda, Signal, and Granma – and are proud of it.

    izlamo delenda est …

  4. Pretty much a Capt. Obvious moment.
    It’s a shame O’Baja wasn’t judged by his white side, that half sucked at his job.
    The half-black choom gang member din do nuffin.
