Center Urges CNN to Retract False Reporting by Lou Dobbs
'Advocacy Journalist' cites bogus data linking leprosy to undocumented
immigrants
Letter to CNN
May 9, 2007 - The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) today urged CNN
to acknowledge that anchor Lou Dobbs has been spreading false
information about the prevalence of leprosy and its supposed links to
undocumented immigrants.
"We're not talking about a newscaster who simply made a mistake -
we're talking about someone with a national platform who cites wildly
inaccurate data to demean an entire group of people and who, when
confronted with the truth, simply repeats the lie," said SPLC
President Richard Cohen. "It's outrageous, and CNN should do something
about it immediately."
In a letter sent today, Cohen asked CNN/U.S. President Jonathan Klein
to take prompt action to correct the misinformation.
On "Lou Dobbs Tonight" this past Monday, Dobbs said he stands "100
percent behind" his show's claim that there had been 7,000 new cases
of leprosy in the United States over a recent three-year period, and
he further suggested that an increase in leprosy was due in part to
"unscreened illegal immigrants coming into this country."

According to NPR: "In fact, whatever little leprosy there is in the
country has been brought by asian immigrants and malaria infection is
originated by mosquitoes, not people".

In conclusion: Lou Dobbs is a racist liar.

Cohen and Klein ... need I say more?
We're supposed to believe the lying Jew bastards at the SPLC and the
lying communist assholes at NPR over an honorable man like Lou Dobbs?
No thanks.

No thanks.
So lets see, the choice is between Lou "The Nazi" Dobbs and the SPLC. Hmmm,
I'll take....the SPLC. So when did Lou start telling the truth anyway?

When a reporter doesn't have what it takes to research what he calls
"facts" he has no value. IMO, Dobbs should be fired. Not because he's
a right wing shrill but because he's a known liar.
