42 seconds total coverage on Fox about Kings embracement of white supremacy. LOL!

And it was framed as “Steve King defending himself today from an attack by the New York Times...”

What a Deplorable news source. Unbelievable!

How much time did the media spend on Trump's "s---hole countries" comment, compared to Tlaib's comment?

They both need to learn some self-control, obviously.

If this wasn't real it would be the most low-effort Onion article to write.

Whoever wrote it would get fired. The Onion is supposed to be funny.

I don't really get what the comparison is supposed to be here. "sh**thole countries" was a story because it gave insight into the mindset of the man with ultimate authority over our immigration policy and our foreign diplomacy - that's worth considerable coverage.

Good for McCarthy to speak-out, though there is some doubt the House GOP will actually do anything.
And LOL at him for suggesting that the other side would do nothing if something like this happened with a Dem. He doesn't even recognize that the Nazis are with the GOP, not the Dem Party.

Not sure if this was your point, but there is one other Teensy difference. One is a backbench first term member of Congress, and the other is the freaking president of the United States of America. There is no conceivable basis on which both individual statement should be measured as somehow equally important, relevant, or newsworthy.
