QOTD: CNN
by digby
As hard as it is to believe, CNN actually ran a story about this:
New way for the KKK?
[Imperial Wizard] Ancona, who lives in Missouri, insists there’s a new Klan for modern times — a Klan that’s “about educating people to our ideas and getting people to see our point of view to … help change things.”
He said he and those like him can spread that message without violence — a sort of rebranding of the Klan.The idea may sound absurd, but is it conceivable?
A reporter checked it out and the PR professional consensus is no.
Good thing CNN is on this, though, or they might have spent a whole bunch of money on repackaging and advertising
only to have people reject their tainted product.
Best to start from scratch. After all, there’s always a “market” out there for white supremacy.
