CNN Reports the Truth on Duke’s Fake Racism Allegation Against BYU
13 Sep 2022
Remember, CNN fired our great friend Brian Stelter, who now has got a job at Harvard to talk about “threats to democracy”?
Well, CNN claimed they were going to jettison far-left talkers like him and move to the center, but they were among those who jumped all over the allegation that a black Duke volleyball player claimed — without evidence — that she’d been called a racial slur during a game at BYU.

Well, CNN sent a contributor to go on the air and call out all the media that got it wrong, because there’s nothing to support this claim.
CNN is finally admitting that, despite the media uproar, there are no facts to support allegations that a racial slur was yelled at a Duke athlete. https://t.co/wRu60LLW3g

The Duke player made an allegation without evidence, and as with the Kavanaugh hearings when we were told to “believe all women,” they kicked right into gear. It’s a true Soviet-style resolution of the situation.
When a black woman says it, it has to be true, because she’s a victim and black women would never lie.
You’d think Duke, which immediately believed 100% false allegations about their lacrosse team in 2006, would have waited for corroborating evidence of racism from a BYU volleyball match. But they didn’t. They blamed BYU for a Jussie hoax. Shameful: pic.twitter.com/bjua7j8M6F

Duke University, even in being massively wronged with the Duke lacrosse case, is happy to have “raised awareness about racism in our society.”
Doesn’t matter whose lives they destroy or how wrong they are. They’re always the heroes.
