[Rhodes22-list] Political - the Main Stream Media versus Brad

Mon Oct 6 22:00:30 EDT 2008

Herb,

What are you talking about? This is a free speech zone,  just like
universities and the US Congress (see below).

Brad

---------------

At Brandeis University. . .professor Donald Hindley, on the faculty
for 48 years, teaches a course on Latin American politics. Last fall,
he described how Mexican migrants to the United States used to be
discriminatorily called "wetbacks." An anonymous student complained to
the administration accusing Mr. Hindley of using prejudicial language.
It was the first complaint against him in 48 years.

After an investigation, during which Mr. Hindley was not told the
nature of the complaint, Brandeis Provost Marty Krauss informed Mr.
Hindley that "The University will not tolerate inappropriate, racial
and discriminatory conduct by members of its faculty." A corollary
accusation was that students suffered "significant emotional trauma"
when exposed to such a term. An administration monitor was assigned to
his class. Threatened with "termination," Mr. Hindley was ordered to
take a sensitivity-training class.

Rep. Barney Frank said Monday that Republican criticism of Democrats
over the nation's housing crisis is a veiled attack on the poor that's
racially motivated.

The Massachusetts Democrat, chairman of the House Financial Services
Committee, said the GOP is appealing to its base by blaming the
country's mortgage foreclosure problem on efforts to expand affordable
housing through the Community Reinvestment Act.

"They get to take things out on poor people," Frank said at a mortgage
foreclosure symposium in Boston. "Let's be honest: The fact that some
of the poor people are black doesn't hurt them either, from their
standpoint. This is an effort, I believe, to appeal to a kind of anger
in people."
