Tucker: This is a grotesque and filthy lie

Tucker looks at NBC’s and CNN’s continued coverage of the recent shooting in Colorado now that the shooter has claimed to be non-binary.

As you probably already expect, they’re still denying it and blaming people who oppose mutilating children, as if that had anything to do with it.

Highlights include:

“If you’ve been watching the ‘news’ recently, the one thing you know for certain about the accused gunman in the massacre in Colorado over the weekend is that he was a ‘crazed, right-wing, anti-trans extremist.”

“He did that because he was taught by right-wing media outlets to despise and fear the non-binary community.”

“Was her reporting right? Well, not entirely. Do you remember when Brandy Zadrozny told you several hundred times that the accused shooter, Anderson Lee Aldrich, was inspired by hatred for the non-binary community that he learned on this show, do you remember that? Well, actually, it turns out, we discovered last night, that Anderson Lee Aldrich is … drumroll, please … part of the non-binary community. He doesn’t hate them, he is one.”

“What it means is that virtually everything NBC ‘news’ has told you about this shooting in Colorado is not only wrong, it is the opposite of the truth. It is all a grotesque and filthy lie. It wasn’t ‘news reporting,’ it turns out to be the most transparent sort of political propaganda, and for once they have been busted flat out, in public, trying to sell political propaganda to an unsuspecting public under the guise of ‘news.’”

“It turns out it’s the town’s fault, too, because there are a lot of Christians, everybody knows, in Colorado Springs, so, gay people feel terrified there because Christians are dangerous. And all these terrified gay people were huddled together for safety when this Fox News-addled anti-trans bigot walked in and started shooting them for being transfolk.”

“Well, the only problem is, not all of the victims were gay. One of them, at least one of them, was at the club with his girlfriend. Details, details.”

“So, if you’re against genital mutilation of children or bringing toddlers to drag shows, you’re against the lgbtq community. Well, of course, that’s insane. There’s nothing anti-gay about that. Most gay people aren’t in favor of genital mutilation or bringing toddlers to drag shows. There’s nothing wrong with those opinions. They’re the right opinions, and all decent people understand that. What’s indecent, what is wrong, is lying about a mass shooting, which NBC did.”-
