12-Year-old black girl apologizes for concocting race hoax — now it's the left-wing media's turn

Earlier last week, a 12-year-old student in Virginia accused three unnamed boys of knocking her down at the school playground slide, covering her mouth, and cutting off her dreadlocks while saying things like "you're ugly, you shouldn't have been born, you have ugly nappy hair."

When I covered the story, I was confident that it was a hoax.  There were some red flags.

Typically, 12-year-olds don't use the playground slide any longer, particularly alone.  Covering someone's mouth seems to muffle people's cries only in the movies.  Additionally, the school said there are adults with the students at all times.

The addition of the term "nappy" seemed like a "Smollett" (a forced detail in order to bolster a claim of racism).  I'm not sure 6th-grade white boys run around using that term.  But until "nappy" was introduced, this was a case of a few boys bullying a girl, and for the purposes of this agenda-driven hoax, that wouldn't do.  "Nappy" had to be included to ensure that this incident would be seen the way they wanted it to be seen.  It was the clarion call to race hucksters.

Enter the left-wing media.

The young girl has since admitted she lied and apologized.  The enemedia have updated their stories to reflect the not so shocking turn of events, but so far, there are no mea culpas for the most disgusting part of this story.

The leftist outlets that I read gratuitously and shamelessly added the tidbit that Second Lady Karen Pence teaches at the Immanuel Christian School in Springfield, Virginia, where the alleged incident took place.

What does Karen Pence have to do with this story?  Nothing.  It was added in order to lead readers by the nose as they connected their accusatory dots.

Racist attack...Christian school...anti-gay...Karen Pence...Mike Pence...Donald Trump...IMPEACH!

(Sidebar: Here's a dot I'd like to connect that the left-wing media seem to have overlooked.  They've pointed out that the Christian school is anti-LGBT.  The alleged victim in this hoax was sent to this "bigoted" school by her guardians.)

Before the story was revealed to be a hoax, a majority of the left-wing comments included the Pence/Trump connection.

Here's a typical Twitter user connecting the dots and adding Melania Trump to the indictment!

One has to admit, the left-wing media are very good at smearing, innuendo, propaganda, indoctrination, and all without apology.
