The Washington Post's Racism By Humberto Fontova
The Washington Post specializes in detecting racism that is undetectable even by the most vigilant Politically Correct Policeman -- then self-righteously denouncing its alleged perpetrator. Let a sports team owner defend his team's name (Redskins) and the Post pounces: "Redskins is not a term fashioned by American Indians." Let Bill Bennet, who has spent a lifetime idolizing Martin Luther King Jr., make an oblique reference to black crime rates and a Post editorial promptly brands him "the poster child for racism."
A WaPo editorial even sniffed out:"Yellow-peril imagery," in recent advisories about unsafe Chinese imports. "They conjure images of the fiendish juggernaut of the Chinese Poison Train bearing down on the hapless American consumer, tied to the tracks by a nefarious evildoer with a Fu Manchu mustache."
