[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When a journalist misquotes someone so blatantly and refuses to own up to her mistake (if it was a mistake and not intentional) she does not deserve the job as journalist. [/quote]

Some of Attiah’s social media posts condemned political violence but also highlighted Kirk’s divisive comments on Black women.[b] In her only post directly mentioning Kirk, she quoted the Turning Point USA founder’s comments that Black women lack “brain processing power.”[/b]

“I made clear that not performing over-the-top grief for white men who espouse violence was not the same as endorsing violence against them,” Attiah said.

Here is a recording from Kirk's 2023 statements:

So where is the misquote?

Was he speaking about those specific women or Black women in general?

Wow. I had never heard him speak on this issue before but now I understand why people say he was a racist, hateful person. [/quote]
