The article, penned by reporter Char Adams, suggests setting up racially segregated "safe spaces" to protect black people from "harassment" and "trauma" caused by white people displaying "Trump flags" at campsites.
You just can't make this stuff up, folks...
From The Daily Mail:
Adams explained that the groups were founded to combat racism from the Jim Crow Era barring African Americans from National Parks, and current stereotypes that black people do not enjoy outdoor activities.
Many on Twitter criticized the report after NBC News re-shared it on Tuesday, saying the media outlet was race-baiting.
On Wednesday, defense attorney Marina Medvin joked that the outdoors were now 'racist,' and Seattle-based radio host Jason Rant slammed the article as a 'parody.'
'NBC News is now Teen Vogue, which became The New Republic,' he tweeted. 'They're just a parody, not a news organization.'
Kentucky State University Political Science Professor Wilfred Reilly even went as far as to say the article was an 'unbearable' example of 'upper-class left-wing neuroticism and fake race/gender grievance' from the media.
'It brings us headlines like "It's Summer: Is it All Right to Leave the House?' he joked.
NewsNation reporter Zaid Jilani also hit out at the news outlet for suggesting black people were living in a horror film.
'Does a week go by without an article from a once-reputable news organization suggesting minorities live in an endless M. Night Shyamalan movie where our entire lives are spent hiding from this or that?'
This is literally what our media has been reduced to: nothing more than race-baiting, junk journalists.
It seems their goal is not to keep the public informed on actual issues but to continue pushing divisive and politically biased content down our gullets.
