I thought only Russian dictators rewrote history, but now American<\/a> journalists seem to be doing it. There has been quite a kerfuffle about Donald Trump<\/a>‘s remarks about Arabs<\/a> celebrating 9\/11. The news media<\/a> is claiming that he is lying, but he keeps on coming up with their own stories that detail the celebrations. It wasn’t hundreds of thousands, but it was thousands.<\/p>\n

The Conservative Treehouse<\/a> posted a story yesterday giving a few examples of what is happening to the news media in America. They are becoming campaign workers–not news reporters<\/a>. I need to say here that I am not voting for Donald Trump in the Republican primary. However, if he is the candidate, I would vote for him before I would vote for Hillary Clinton. But that is not the point.<\/p>\n

The article at The Conservative Treehouse is reporting that The New York Post<\/a> has removed articles about the Arab celebrations of 9\/11 from its website. Donald Trump exaggerated, but told the truth. The New York Post and other media have attempted to alter the truth.<\/p>\n

The story at The Conservative Treehouse includes the following:<\/p>\n

[\u2026]\u00a0 The PC concern is that the Israelis will somehow \u201ctake advantage\u201d of the attacks and therefore that negative stories about Palestinians<\/a> are to be handled as gingerly as stories about American Arabs and Muslims.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why you probably don\u2019t know about the Palestinian Authority<\/a>\u2019s death threat against a videographer who took footage of a 4,000-person celebration on Sept. 11<\/a> \u2013 which led to the seizure of the news footage and its erasure. The fact that bin Laden\u2019s allies on the West Bank<\/a> targeted a news photographer for death for filming Palestinians dancing at the news of the death of 7,000 Americans didn\u2019t make it anywhere near the front pages.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The news media usually make a stink when the media are threatened. Not this time.\u00a0 (link<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n
