Recently released surveillance footage depicts a suspect police say resembles Michael Brown robbing a convenience store shortly before the shooting incident in Ferguson took place. And now, conservative tweeters are really out for blood. Well, if you ask Slate journo Jamelle Bouie, anyway:

Has Jamelle looked in a mirror lately?

@jbouie I think the question is more what "right-wing Twitter" means.

What about the phenomenon of left-wing journo-hacks like Bouie painting “right-wing Twitter” as bloodthirsty racists? Isn’t that also “a thing,” Jamelle?

Except the term “right-wing Twitter” implies a whole lot more than just a “particular slice of right-wingers.”
Meanwhile, in the real world, a Slate journalist exposes his ignorance of the concept of "sample size". https://t.co/AlwJsCa4Rr

Bouie’s not a journalist; he’s a one-man smear campaign.

There's more people in "right wing twitter" saying the opposite, but this fucking hack poisons the well. https://t.co/spXiOpx13l

Instead of encouraging dialogue, @jbouie poisons the well to keep people from seeing that people on the right share the left's concerns.

But hey, maybe it’s not Jamelle’s fault he’s this way.
.@seanmdav Come on, dude. You know that @jbouie is just a kid who doesn't really know any better. No life experience, never taught right.

@RBPundit in fairness, @jbouie hasn't been the same ever since rerun dropped the tape recorder at the doobie brothers concert
