Racism

Southern Avenger Also a Daily Caller, Fox News Regular

It gets better. Or worse, depending on your perspective.

The rabidly-racist, neo-confederate co-author of Rand Paul’s Book The Tea Party Goes to Washington is also a contributor to The Daily Caller, a frequent guest on Fox News, and also co-wrote Heritage Foundation President Jim DeMint’s book Now or Never: Saving America from Economic Collapse.

Hunter’s Daily Caller archive lists more than 50 pieces from him between August 2011 and May 2013, including numerous editions of a slickly-produced, Daily Caller-branded video commentary series, “The Deal with Jack Hunter.” His most recent Daily Caller piece was published on May 6 and headlined, “Rand Paul shatters left-right paradigm, can help grow GOP.” In his written and video commentaries, Hunter regularly promoted the candidacy of Ron Paul, whose 2012 presidential campaign he worked for as an “official campaign blogger.” [...]

According to a search of the Nexis database, Hunter appeared as a guest on Fox Business’ Freedom Watch more than twenty times between March 14, 2011, and February 13, 2012. Freedom Watch was hosted by Fox News senior judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano and was cancelled in February 2012. [...]

Hunter helped write Jim DeMint’s most recent 2012 book, Now or Never: Saving America from Economic Collapse. DeMint writes in the acknowledgements page: “I would like to thank my editor and collaborator, Jack Hunter, who contributed his writing skills and passion for freedom to make this book more readable and insightful.” Hunter also wrote a chapter introduction in the book. The book features a foreword by Sen. Rand Paul.

At some point the idea that this is all a coincidence just can’t be taken seriously anymore. Nor can you expect anyone to believe that Fox Business, DeMint, Paul, and The Daily Caller were all unaware of his past.

I’ll go out on a limb and suggest that they knew exactly who he was and that’s exactly why they all hired him. He’s one of us! Go Team White!
