'What a LOAD of bullsh*t': Brit Hume tears the AP a new one over their lame explanation for making 'woke' grammar changes

Brit Hume seems less than impressed with the AP’s explanation for capitalizing ‘Black’ when writing about Black Americans … but not white when writing about white Americans.

He ALMOST swore, y’all.

From the AP:

After changing its usage rules last month to capitalize the word “Black” when used in the context of race and culture, The Associated Press on Monday said it would not do the same for “white.”

The AP said white people in general have much less shared history and culture, and don’t have the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color.

Protests following the death of George Floyd, which led to discussions of policing and Confederate symbols, also prompted many news organizations to examine their own practices and staffing. The Associated Press, whose Stylebook is widely influential in the industry, announced June 19 it would make Black uppercase.

“We agree that white people’s skin color plays into systemic inequalities and injustices, and we want our journalism to robustly explore these problems,” John Daniszewski, the AP’s vice president for standards, said in a memo to staff Monday. “But capitalizing the term white, as is done by white supremacists, risks subtly conveying legitimacy to such beliefs.”

Columbia Journalism Review, the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, USA Today, the Los Angeles Times, NBC News and Chicago Tribune are among the organizations that have recently said they would capitalize Black but have not done so for white.

“White doesn’t represent a shared culture and history in the way Black does,” The New York Times said on July 5 in explaining its decision.

Huh?

We’re not experts or anything but this sounds … well, pretty damn racist.

When even the AP is trying to be woke? *sigh*

Totally.

And they’re so blinded by their own agenda they don’t even know it.
