AUTHOR OF THE BELL CURVE; SCH..."Charles Murray<br />AUTHOR OF THE BELL CURVE; SCHOLAR AT THE AMERICAN ENTERPRISE INSTITUTE<br /><br />Charles Murray is one of the most influential right-wing ideological architects of the post-Reagan era. His career began in a secret Pentagon counterinsurgency operation in rural Thailand during the Vietnam War, a program whose stated purpose included applying counter-insurgency strategies tested in rural Thailand to America's own restive inner cities and minority populations. By the late 1970s, Charles Murray was drawing up plans for the US Justice Department that called for massively increasing incarceration rates. In the 1980s, backed by an unprecedented marketing campaign, Murray suddenly emerged as the nation's most powerful advocate for abolishing welfare programs for single mothers. Since then, Murray revived discredited racist eugenics theories "proving" that blacks and Latinos are genetically inferior to whites, and today argues that the lower classes are inferior to the upper classes due to breeding differences."<br /><br />Wow. An inspiration to one of these whacked out Christian universities? No wonder those people give me the creeps. I'd love to sit on a class at one of these "universities." I bet the geology, science, and history classes are a scream! This is the educational outlook of the Santa Barbara News-Press writers? That's one scary newspaper, Wendy McCaw. Nice work staffing your paper. Who does your hiring, Adolf Hitler?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4648613329142670080.post-48278211859911421942015-06-17T22:54:48.080-07:002015-06-17T22:54:48.080-07:00"Religious flyers" carried by the News-P..."Religious flyers" carried by the News-Press? Of course! At this point they would carry anti-semitic propaganda if someone was willing to pay them to do so. They say another ad salesman recently quit, seeing the ship sink deeper and the unrealistic sales expectations of management -- who can't seem to understand their politics and ideology have no one wanting anything to do with the paper. It's these folks abandoning ship that let it slip the News-Press' circulation has sunk to 15,000 -- a loss of another 10,000 readers since Wendy McCaw shrank the size of the paper. I am just baffled how the people running that paper think Santa Barbarans have the same pea-brain sized outlook of the world as the blue-collar evangelicals might swallow the reactionary tripe the News-Press pushes as news. Racist? Possibly. Wendy, would you want the people you think you're selling your paper to living next door? As yourself that sometime, publisher. Start singing a new tune and maybe people will listen again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
