How Dishonest Can The Media Be?

Last week saw the funeral of Aretha Franklin.  Most of the buzz about the funeral came in the form of pictures of Bill Clinton ogling Ariana Grande as she performed on stage in front of him.  Had Hillary been sitting there she would have punched him most likely.  But that was not the real news.  Clinton shared the speakers dais with just a few other people.  Perhaps the most noteworthy of the other people who spoke was Louis Farrakhan, noted race baiter, anti-Semite, and leader of the Black Muslims (or the Nation of Islam as they prefer).  This is a really bad guy when it comes to race relations in the USA, and Clinton shared the stage with him.  In fact, Bill sat just two seats away.

I've written about this previously, so I don't want to repeat all that.  What I want to point out now is that in all the pictures of the funeral that ABC and MSNBC published or aired, Louis Farrakhan was kept outside of view.  The pictures were cropped so that Farrakhan was always just out of view.  And remember, we are talking about 20 or more pictures here.  The mainstream media went out of its way to make sure that as few as possible people knew that Bill Clinton shared the speakers' platform with this disgusting human being.
