Steve Breen’s racist political cartoon is okay with MSM

Richard Rider

Here’s a typical MSM racist political cartoon. It’s drawn by Steve Breen and gleaned from the 26 February U-T editorial page (and likely appearing in other papers). It’s racist because of what it DOESN’T show.

President Obama’s deportation policy was roughly the same as the latest iteration of the Trump policy. During his time in office, Obama deported about 2.5 MILLION people — more than any other President (verified by Snopes).

Yet nowhere in the MSM will you find such a cartoon denigrating our First Black President. Can you imagine a political cartoon in the NY TIMES, WaPo, or other MSM outlet, illustrating President Obama chasing a hapless Mexican family with a butterfly net?

Well, you’ll HAVE to imagine it, because no such cartoon exists. Not in the MSM.

Perhaps a better, more accurate cartoon would show an exhausted Obama passing the butterfly net “relay race style” to a waiting Trump — with the fleeing Mexican family the sought-after prize. Fat chance!

The sadly funny part is the political cartoonists, editors, etc. HONESTLY believe that they are not biased — and certainly not racists. But their actions speak louder than their protestations.
