Picketers protest Dobbs’ immigrant-bashing
Published Dec 14, 2006 8:16 PM
CNN’s Lou Dobbs was confronted by picketers from the Buffalo/Western
New York International Action Center when he broadcast live from Buffalo, N.Y.,
on Dec. 6. Dobbs has turned his nightly “news” program into an orgy
of immigrant-bashing. Opponents of his racist campaign handed out fliers to the
“town hall” audience, which read, “No media personality has
done more to generate a hateful, lie-filled anti-immigrant climate than Lou
Dobbs.”
The flier explained that Dobbs’ message of hatred is meant to divide
working people, to get those who think of themselves as “middle
class” to blame immigrants and the poor for job losses, instead of
correctly blaming corporate greed and U.S. imperialism.
