Soros-funded Media Matters: White men have no business talking about female and black community issues

The title of this piece says it all:

During all-white-male Meet the Press panel, Novak claimed “woman or an African-American” Dem nominee would give GOP “hope”

The article included “facts” like these:

Neither host Tim Russert nor any of Novak’s fellow panelists, Bloomberg News Washington managing editor Al Hunt, Republican strategist Mike Murphy, and Democratic strategist Bob Shrum — all of whom are, like Novak, white men — commented on or challenged Novak’s assertion. As Media Matters for America documented, the four Sunday-morning talk programs on the broadcast networks, Meet the Press, ABC’s This Week, CBS’ Face the Nation, and Fox Broadcasting Co.’s Fox News Sunday, feature guest lists that are overwhelmingly white and overwhelmingly male.

A breakdown of the guests on Meet the Press from 2005 to 2006 shows that 76 percent of the guests on the program were white men.

This is just another way the left tries to shut down debate, by implicitly claiming that only women and black people can comment on their respective issues. If this is the way they really wanted it to be, then we’d never hear Democrats who have never served in the military complain about the way the war in Iraq was going, nor would we see any white Democrats attempt to address black community issues because, well, they aren’t black.

Hmmm.

Come to think of it, that might not be such a bad idea …

But seriously, I find it humorous that Media Matters didn’t consider the all-white male panel fit to comment on issues related to women and the black community, but did expect it to ‘challenge’ Robert Novak’s comment about a black and/or female president and how it would supposedly ‘help’ the GOP next year.

I’ll take “Inconsistencies in Arguments” for $500, Alex.
