Lib writer at Deadspin accuses child of racism; it backfires
-
Deadspin reporter Carron Phillips accused [young Chiefs fan] of mocking black people after seeing a picture in profile which [had kid in blackface]...
Phillips also slammed [kid's] Native American headdress and his 'Tomahawk Chop' gesture claiming the little boy had 'found a way to hate Black people and the Native Americans at the same time'.
But kid only did a common Chiefs thing, his face half-red half-black. And...
This evening it emerged that the youngster has Native American heritage himself with a grandfather serving on the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians, and that the team's multi-ethnic squad had enthusiastically joined in with [kid's] 'Indian' chopping gesture.
'Just stop already,' the boy's mom [] wrote on Facebook, 'He is Native American.'
Moral of the story: Even cameras lie - given cuts & how framed.
Plus, libs are pompous evil retards, make problems where none existed.

Rather than apologize, Deadspin has altered its piece to make it more fake.
...announced that they had removed photos, links, and other identifying information [eg. child's name] from the piece written by Carron J. Phillips.
What's left after that?
A piece accusing some unknown, magical mysterious child of racism that never happened.
Caron J. Phillips was slammed for going as low as to target a small child, but he refused to apologize. In fact, he doubled down and asserted that the young Native boy is a racist.
In a post on X, that has since been deleted, Phillips wrote: "For the idiots in my mentions who are treating this as some harmless act because the other side of his face was painted red, I could make the argument that it makes it even worse. Y’all are the ones who hate Mexicans but wear sombreros on Cinco."
Parents had asked Deadspin to do retraction & apology "with the same prominence and fanfare with which you defamed [child]."
Clearly, Deadspin has not.

Update: Family sues. Deadspin & Phillips still never retracted nor apologized, it seems.
