Katie Couric Gave Ruth Bader Ginsburg Ideological Whitewash

Moonbats worship the late leftist Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. However, not even the notorious RBG achieved perfect wokeness. Her place in the liberal pantheon was secured in part by whitewashing by information gatekeeper Katie Couric:

Couric selectively edited her 2016 interview with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg by omitting negative comments the justice made about those who kneel during the national anthem, she admitted in her new memoir.

At the time, everyone but fringe leftists understood that the fading mediocrity Colin Kaepernick behaved contemptibly by indulging in disrespectful antics during the anthem, the Black Lives Matter propaganda blitz that mainstreamed his posturing not having occurred.

Ginsburg told Couric she was opposed to the action, saying those who kneel during the anthem were showing “contempt for a government that has made it possible for their parents and grandparents to live a decent life,” according to new reporting by the Daily Mail.

That opinion was left on the cutting room floor. Couric left in Ginsburg’s remark that kneeling athletes are “dumb and disrespectful,” but without letting her explain why.

Looks like Ginsburg tried to walk back her comments anyway, having realized that she had strayed off the liberal reservation:

[T]he day after their sit-down, the head of public affairs for the Supreme Court emailed Couric to say the late justice had “misspoken” and asked that it be removed from the story.

This isn’t the first time Katie Cupcake has employed selective editing on behalf of the party line:

[Stephen] Gutowski, reporting for the Washington Free Beacon at the time, broke the story in 2016 that a Couric documentary edited her interview with pro-gun activists to make them look dumbfounded by one of her questions. The documentary showed them sitting in silence after she asked them about how to prevent terrorists and felons from purchasing guns without background checks, but in reality they immediately answered according to their own audio of the interview.

The liberal news establishment is comprised of ham-fisted propagandists whose job is to prop up the Democrat Party and its radical agenda. This is why so-called journalists do not fear censorship but rather scream for more of it.
