White Pride In Memphis

Posted on November 9, 2008 at 11:22 am

Former GOP Congressional candidate John Farmer reports on a controversial conference in Memphis headlined by white nationalist David Duke:

I spoke with the cameraman for just a few moments and told him who I was, but all he really commented on was how many good-looking women were there [at the Conference] and how that surprised him. I think the first thing that strikes me about their reporting was that they said there were “dozens of people” at the event. Clearly this is deceptive, since although I could not give an exact accounting, the large meeting room I later entered was filled beyond capacity with standing-room only. I actually had to sit on the floor in the center aisle myself. Looking at the pictures I took, there looks like a dozen seats per row, and there were at least ten rows. So I would have to estimate between 120-150 people (seated) were attending the event, not “dozens”, and most likely more because there were “dozens of people” standing outside the room talking as I left. This leads me to believe other reports that the local media has been very biased in their reporting on the Conference.

Newscoma has two posts reacting to the former Republican candidate’s attendance at the event.

    Farmer did a wonderful job of reporting the events as they happened and not as how they were portrayed by the media.
    Even though you are an unfair and all around evil dude I hope all goes well for you AC.
