AP Censors Again: Omits 'Muslim' from Obama WH Correspondents Dinner Joke

 

New post on Creeping Sharia   AP Omits ‘Muslim’ from Obama WH Correspondents Dinner Joke by creeping Posted on April 29, 2013 by creeping via AP Omits ‘Muslim’ from Obama WHCD Joke. by Warner Todd Huston In some of its reports on Saturday night’s White House Correspondents Dinner (WHCD), the Associated Press failed to include one of President Obama’s own gags. AP strangely left out the word “Muslim” in one of Obama’s self-referential jokes. Early in his comments on April 26, President Obama made reference to his young life with a joke and a visual image projected on the video screen. … President Obama then said, “These days I look in the mirror and have to admit, I’m not the strapping young Muslim Socialist that I used to be. Time passes, you get a little gray.” In one version of the night’s story (as seen at Huffington Post, Time Magazine, Breitbart Wires, the Ottawa Citizen, and The Columbian to name a few), the AP’s Bradley Klapper forgot one part of the President’s joke. “I’m not the strapping young Socialist that I used to be,” the president remarked, and then recounted his recent 2-for-22 basketball shooting performance at the White House Easter Egg hunt. In other versions of Klapper’s story, the word “Muslim” does appear. He’s not strapping or young. End of joke. http://wp.me/pbU4v-ev0 Comment    See all comments   Unsubscribe or change your email settings at Manage Subscriptions. Trouble clicking?
