Our friends at Liberty Counsel put out the following release to correct a cheap shot narrative being used against the organization, which opposes an anti-lynching bill because it contains an unnecessary LGBT provision. Here is a tweet I sent out on this, followed by a video featuring LC’s Jonathan Alexandre:
False and simplistic narrative designed to demonize Liberty Counsel. Like them, I support a law banning ALL lynching. In fact, I’d support #DeathPenaltyJustice for someone convicted of lynching a homosexual, or anyone. — @PeterLaBarbera, January 11, 2019
The following news release was sent out today by Liberty Counsel:
False Reporting on Lynching Bill Endangers Lives
Jan 10, 2019
ORLANDO, FL — Some media have falsely reported that Liberty Counsel is opposed to banning lynching, or, opposes banning lynching of LGBT people. Such reporting is false, reckless, and offensive. In fact, Mat Staver said, “No one can or should oppose a bill that bans lynching.” Staver continued, “We oppose lynching across the board for any person. Period!”
“The bill in question created a list of protected categories, thus limiting the application of the law. Lynching should be prohibited no matter the person’s reason for committing this violent crime,” concluded Staver.
As an African-American, Jonathan Alexandre, Director of Public Policy for Liberty Counsel in Washington, D.C., is likewise outraged over the false narrative of the media. He said, “The systematic torture and abuse of African-Americans throughout history is this country’s greatest disgrace. Some politicians and media have tried to use this horrible history to push unrelated political agendas by hijacking a serious issue. Lynching is wrong for all people despite the reason for targeting a victim.”
FOX anchor Shep Smith never squabbled with being “outed” by OUT, a leading homosexual magazine. Above is an entry for Smith in the magazine’s “Power 50” list of influential homosexuals. Click to enlarge.
In the video below, I am interviewed by my friend Cliff Kincaid, president of America’s Survival, about the not-unexpected revelation that Fox News daytime anchor Shepard (“Shep”) Smith is homosexual. We discuss Fox’s steady abandonment of “fair & balanced” coverage of the LGBTQ agenda, and the GOP’s abandonment of serious opposition to it. [Read my in-depth 2014 report for A.S. on Fox News’ growing pro-homosexual bias HERE.]
We also discuss how homosexual-agenda-related issues and even religious liberty (freedom of conscience vs. “gay rights”) have barely been raised in this presidential election, thanks in part to Republicans not bringing it up. Kincaid says conservatives need more networks to compete with Fox News. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH; @PeterLaBarbera
Here is Cliff’s YouTube description of the program, released today:
Cliff Kincaid and Peter LaBarbera discuss the decline of Fox News, in the context of Shepard Smith coming “out” of the closet, and the unwillingness of the channel to promote or even mention the importance of traditional values.
“Lester Holt failed in his role as a moderator. Period,” says prominent media critic
I completely agree with Brent Bozell III, founder and president of the conservative Media Research Center, on NBC journalist Lester Holt’s egregious bias in moderating the first Trump-Clinton presidential debate last night. Stuff like this is why everyday Americans distrust the liberal media as much or more than they distrust politicians. You can read more on Holt’s lopsided performance here. — Peter LaBarbera, AFTAH [click to enlarge graphic]

Transcription of the above tweet by Brent Bozell:
Here is my official full statement on tonight’s #debate moderated by Lester Holt. #TTT16 [MRC campaign confronting media bias in election coverage: “Tell the Truth 20116]
“Lester Hold clearly heard the cries of his colleagues in the liberal media to be tough on Trump and ease up on Hillary loud and clear. Holt continually challenged, fact-checked, and interrupted Trump and not once challenged Hillary. Holt pounded Trump repeatedly on the birth certificate controversy, his position on Iraq, his tax returns, and whether or not Hillary looked presidential. Where were the quesions on the Clinton Foundation or Benghazi or her email server? These are the questions that drive right to the heart of whether Hillary is ready to be president and yet viewers tuning in heard nothing about these important issues. Lester Holt failed in his role as a moderator. Period.”
