“Young Turks” host and major jagoff Cenk Uygur is running for Katie Hill’s former congressional seat — and he’s got Bernie Sanders’ blessing, natch. But Bernie’s campaign is in some hot water over that, thanks to some of Uygur’s past remarks about women as well as Jews and Muslims. The L.A. Times covered the controversy, as they should, but for some reason, staff writer Michael Finnegan couldn’t resist a little bit of spin:
Is there any actual dispute about this? https://t.co/yCmVGohnZY pic.twitter.com/ajHqsU5b2Y

“That it said”? Come on.
They're just asking questions, Sonny. https://t.co/6X8GK4HdOv

Some website said something.

Heh.
I mean, on the one hand, it’s decent of the LAT to give the Beacon credit; lots of pubs don’t do that! It’s just a weird way to phrase it.

It’s a weird way to phrase it only if you don’t think about the MSM’s need to discredit conservative outlets like the Washington Free Beacon.
It's not that weird, if you think about it. They knew what they were doing.

Indeed. Bernie Sanders has chosen to surround himself with anti-Semitic, homophobic bigots. That’s on him, not on the Free Beacon.
