Where’s Idaho’s outrage re: Bannon?
In its Sunday editorial, the Twin Falls Times News comments:
It’s no surprise to Times-News readers that President-elect Donald Trump’s new chief strategist, Stephen Bannon, has an ugly connection to Twin Falls .
Bannon is the former executive chairman of Breitbart News, an online “conservative” site widely labeled as racist, xenophobic and misogynistic. His connection to Twin Falls, of course, is through Lee Stranahan, Breitbart’s “lead investigative reporter” who camped out here for much of the summer.
Stranahan stirred up plenty of trouble when he helped perpetuate the anti-Muslim myth that refugees were invading our community, raping our children and women and stealing our jobs.
