Sharpton Eulogizes Cokie Roberts with Picture of Christiane Amanpour
MSNBC host has historical issues with facts, names, spelling

Nic Rowan - September 17, 2019 5:00 PM

MSNBC PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton mourned the passing of journalist Cokie Roberts on Tuesday by sending out a tweet with pictures of the still-living journalist Christiane Amanpour.

Sharpton tweeted, "Saddened to hear of the passing of legendary journalist Cookie [sic] Roberts. Here is a Easter Sunday special we did in 2011. May she Rest In Peace," along with several pictures of Amanpour. Aside from the obvious misidentification of the deceased, Sharpton misspelled Roberts's name.

Critics were quick to point out Sharpton's errors, and he deleted the tweet.

Well, you know... they all look alike.

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

He really screwed the pooch on this one…

MSNBC PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton mourned Tuesday’s death of journalist Cokie Roberts by sending a tweet of images of Christiane Amanpour, a still-living journalist.

Sharpton tweeted, “Saddened to hear of the passing of legendary journalist Cookie Roberts. Here is a Easter Sunday special we did in 2011. May she Rest In Peace,” along with several Amanpour images. Apart from the deceased’s apparent misidentification, Sharpton mispelled the name of Roberts.

Critics were fast to point out the mistakes of Sharpton, and the tweet was removed.

The left seems to hate Cokie (judging by the wiki edit page) but I seem to remember she was a leftist like most other reporters.. and there was something she did that rubbed me wrong and I can't remember it. Dang that bugs me... memory ain't what it used to be.
