A Jan. 19 NewsBusters post by Scott Whitlock continues his previous work in attempting to falsely attach Hillary Clinton to Harry Belafonte's controversial remarks. Whitlock wrote:
The following day, Monday, January 16, the pop singer made a late appearance at the Canaan Baptist Church in New York with Hillary Clinton, -- yes, this was her infamous "plantation" speech. The two did not share a podium, but spoke at different times. This is the second event that Clinton and Belafonte both attended. On January 13, they were at a Children’s Defense Fund dinner together. Could protecting Mrs. Clinton be the reason the media isn’t following the story?
Because it's irrelevant? Because Clinton has never claimed she endorses what Belafonte said?
If such guilt-by-association links are truly important and relevant, perhaps Whitlock should ask his boss, L. Brent Bozell III, how many Washington gatherings Bozell has been to that were also attended by Jack Abramoff.
