Note: Mary tells me her letter resulted in a phone call from WSB Executive Producer Brad Stone who apparently indicated there would be a future report on SPLC/DIS. In May.

“It is also my understanding that responsible news organizations will contact individuals under discussion.” Mary Grabar, American citizen and proud immigrant.

I write in outrage over WSB TV’s news report that repeats the smears of the SPLC’s latest list of what they call “hate groups” and the inclusion of the mainstream Dustin Inman Society.

As a news organization, you should know that the SPLC has repeatedly been found to target groups with which it has ideological disagreements as “hate groups”—with no evidence to back up the charges. For this reason, they are being sued by numerous individuals and organizations.

It is also my understanding that responsible news organizations will contact individuals under discussion. I learn from D.A. King that you have not even bothered to contact him, and after linking to a report that profiled him (with lies) at length.

The SPLC has been exposed countless times as a scam. They actually lobby at the Gold Dome against legislation that would require reporting illegal aliens that have already been convicted of crimes to ICE. Is there a mention of this fact in your “reporting”?

The false headline from the SPLC hit piece on the Dustin Inman Society tells readers that DIS “focuses on vilifying all immigrants.” As a proud immigrant and a member of the board of advisors of the Dustin Inman Society for years, I can testify that this is a whole cloth and easily disproved lie.

I went to hear D.A. King speak just last week and listened to him tell the packed room that the media will paint anyone who supports secure borders, immigration enforcement and sanity in the number of legal immigrants we allow in to the USA as somehow “anti-immigrant.” I can tell you that D.A. won resounding applause from the multi-racial and multi-ethnic audience.

You should report those kinds of facts rather than the libelous smears from the SPLC.

Sincerely,

Mary Grabar.
