Jason Aldean has taken a stand for community cohesion and basic decency. In response, the liberal establishment has been trying to destroy him. Ultra-woke CMT canceled his hit song “Try That in a Small Town,” which cultural gatekeepers denounced as racist because it sides with regular Americans against BLM/Antifa rioters. The media’s specialty is characterizing villains as heroes and vice versa on behalf of the leftist agenda, but Aldean is not an easy case, because no well-meaning person could oppose his viewpoint. One propagandist became so desperate to discredit his fan base that even as the country guffawed at Carlee Russell, she pulled off what looks like a hate hoax.

From Wisconsin:

A TMJ4 reporter was “left humiliated” while reporting from Country Thunder’s opening night in Twin Lakes Thursday after being yelled at and subjected to a racist slur.

Uncoincidentally, Jason Aldean played “Try That in a Small Town” at the Country Thunder festival, though not that same night.

Taylor Lumpkin, a Black multimedia journalist for WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) since 2020, tweeted Thursday night that “a guy ran up and yelled at me (unprovoked), and called me a N***** twice. No one helped. Everyone stared at me, and laughed.

“Do better people,” the tweet said.

The aptly named Lumpkin proved herself a true modern journalist by making herself the story. Her tweet has racked up 1.3 million views.

Naturally liberals are fawning self-righteously over how oppressed she is. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel squawks piously about the “core commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion” that likely put her in her job. She ought to set up a GoFundMe page.

Have a bucket handy as you brace for her follow-up:

Please. With apologies to talented black journalists who deserve their positions, everyone with access to a television who knows that blacks make up only 13% of the population also knows that the Powers That Be bend over backward to place them in front of cameras. Being a left-wing Woman of Color obviates the need for other qualifications, as Kamala Harris and Ketanji Brown Jackson comically confirm.

The improbable incident may earn Lumpkin a promotion, but it also earns her a spot on the Hate Hoax List.
