Well, the left leaning ones have been sympathetic to these women, and I am not. Hence, in this instance, I'm going to quote the right leaning ones.
Quote:I have not read a single story in the media that was "sympathetic" to this women. All I have seen are stories like in the OP that just state what is going on. And also pretty much every media outlet I listen to says that the video of the kid in the MAGA hat was deceptive.
Here's a few;

Quote:So I really don't know what you are talking about. I don't see the media being sympathetic to this woman but I do see them reporting on the poor boy being unfairly criticized.
To the former, no. To the latter, yes, after the full story came out. That didn't exactly happen in the beginning though did it? So, your assertion is that the Covington kid was treated unfairly at first but not so much after the actual truth became known. yet there are people calling for compassion for these ISIS women despite their being members of the vilest organization this world has seen since 1945.
Quote:But since you found the comment interesting I assume you have seen something different from me.
You assume correctly. As I said, I watch/read/listen to a lot of different sources.
