The Federalist did a little digging into the leftist media coverage of George Takei's racist hate directed at black Judge Clarence Thomas, and came up empty.

You may remember that Takei, former Star Trek actor (now known mostly just for saying "Oh, myyy") and current gay rights mouthpiece and social media clown, took exception to Thomas' dissent in the Supreme Court's same-sex marriage ruling. He called the judge a "clown in black face," then doubled down on his racism before finally acknowledging that he spoke uncivilly out of anger. The story was all over the internet - except on progressive sites, which circled the wagons around Takei to cover for the racists in their midst.

Online searches by The Federalist at BuzzFeed, ThinkProgress, Huffington Post, Vox, Mother Jones, and Talking Points Memo all turned up not one story on leftist favorite Takei's blatant and disgusting attacks on Thomas. Nothing. The precise figure was zero. Imagine how many hits the search results would have turned up if a popular conservative actor had called Al Sharpton, who actually IS a clown, a "clown in black face," or Takei, also a clown, a clown in yellow face.

The story has only just begun to appear on leftist sites, like HuffPost, with the focus on Takei's apology.

"For whatever reason," The Federalist concluded, tongue in cheek, "these sites don’t seem to want their readers to know what one of the primary cheerleaders of same-sex marriage has to say about minorities who disagree with the Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell."

And yet some people still believe the media are objective.
