Bogus Accusation by Black Camerawoman that Two Whites Threw Peanuts at Her at RNC Convention

By Douglas V. Gibbs

The false accusation goes that two white men threw peanuts at a black camerawoman from CNN, verbalizing that that was how they fed animals at the zoo.

Like the DC spitting incident, there is no evidence, and the situation has raised more questions than answers.

However, the incident fits right into the liberal left narrative that republicans are just a bunch of violent racists.

The CNN Camerawoman, Patricia Carroll, first made her comments on a blog.

The questions begin with the fact that she is a CNN camerawoman. Okay, so where is the camera work? Why didn't she catch it on camera. Or let's take it a step further. In this world where everybody had a camera on their phone, and just about everything winds up on YouTube, where's any picture or video of the event?

Next question. . . the RNC was crowded. There was people everywhere. So, how does such a horrid thing happen, and then no one else hears it - much less clicks a pic or films it? Where are the witnesses?

Where are the peanut throwing perpetrators? Who are they? Reporters find dirt on republican politicians and supporters like Joe the Plumber within moments, yet they can't figure out who these peanut throwing racists were?

Did these people get ejected? Were they told not to throw peanuts? What was their credentials? After all, they don't let just anybody into the convention.

We were told by the Washington Post that a Romney official apologized and claimed the men doing it were alternate delegates. Who gave the apology, and if he knew they were alternate delegates, how come we don't know who the peanut throwers are through his knowledge?

Patricia Carroll states that the happening was such a ruckus that other colleagues came over to investigate. Yet, it didn't attract the attention of other witnesses, and the other reporters didn't jump on it before she went to the blog?

With all of these questions, are we supposed to believe Patricia Carroll's accusation? Especially when you consider all of the other underhanded liberal left tactics we've been seeing?
