How dare you publicize my call for violence? It might provoke violence against me!
Frances Fox-Piven, the Marxist academic (she teaches at CUNY after retiring from Columbia), is complaining about death threats allegedly provoked by Glenn Beck accurately quoting her desire to see Greek-style riots (remember, there were deaths in these riots) in the United States. Naturally, the New York Times pens a sympathetic article making Beck out as the bad guy.
Yet another example of the leftist double-standard at work. Accurate reporting (which contained absolutely no call for violence) on Fox-Piven's explicit call for violence is demonized, while the person hoping for violence is canonized as a victim.
The left cannot withstand scrutiny on this. Only an academic could believe reasoning this convoluted.
