Savage Rips Media Coverage of Massacre of Jewish Children

Talk show host and best-selling author Michael Savage blasted the mainstream media Wednesday for side-stepping the obvious in its coverage of the massacre of Jewish schoolchildren in France – that the likely culprit was an Islamist terrorist.

That proved to be the case early Wednesday when French elite forces stormed the house of a man identified the likely perpetrator. Not only was Mohammed Merah an al-Qaida sympathizer, he had actually been trained in terrorist camps in the Middle East, according to reports.

“When four Jewish children were brutally murdered in France on Monday, the media immediately began to tell us who the murderer was. ‘It was a random attack. It was a serial killer. It was a racist, neo-Nazi murder.’’ Savage wrote on his website. “Every possible alternative was used in order to avoid coming to the conclusion that this was a Muslim terrorist attack.

“Slowly, but surely, the case of the paid shills in the media began to fall apart,” Savage wrote. “First a group of neo-Nazi suspects in the murders was cleared by the French police. And then, early this morning, French authorities closed in on Mohammed Merah, who admitted to killing both the French paratroopers who had died at his hands earlier and the Jewish schoolchildren.

“But the media hasn’t stopped its lies yet,” Savage added. “Again, expert after expert is claiming that this radical terrorist was nothing but a ‘lone wolf.’ And yet the terrorist himself claims that he is affiliated with al-Qaida.”
