By only having to offer half-hearted apologies after accidentally on purpose disparaging conservative and Republican organizations it disagrees with, TheView will continue its inflammatory rhetoric and nefarious actions, writes cwtremo.
The political activist group Turning Point USA took action against left-wing gossip show The View after the talk show insinuated a link between neo-Nazis and Turning Point USA's recent Student Action Summit. TPUSA sent a cease-and-desist letter to ABC News and demanded that The View retract its"defamatory statements." The show offered an apology as a result. Yet I believe The View should have done more than merely offer an apology.
"Neo-Nazis were out there in front of the conference with antisemitic slurs and, you know, the Nazi swastika and a picture of a so-called Jewish person with exaggerated features, just like Goebbels did during the Third Reich. It's the same thing, right out of that same playbook," Behar said. "So on Monday we talked about the fact that there were openly Neo-Nazi demonstrators outside the Florida student action summit of the Turning Point USA group," Haines said."We want to make clear that these demonstrators were gathered outside the event and that they were not invited or endorsed by Turning Point USA."
