Another day, another lying journalist exposed.
Several days ago, two Asian women were attacked. One was 65, the other 83.
Here is what the odious David Beard had to say about it:
One woman is 85.
One 65.
Both are Asian American.
Both were stabbed by a white man.

But it wasn't a white man. It was a black man.
Andy Ngo called him out for it. The 'journalist' then made his Twitter private and removed references to his previous employers.
When the suspect was arrested, he tweeted about that as well. Guess what he left out when that happened.
Update: suspect arrested in attack on two Asian American women in San Francisco. The women, 84 and 63, are recovering from their injuries. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/2-asian-american-women-stabbed-in-san-francisco-attack/2021/05/04/a345a380-ad49-11eb-82c1-896aca955bb9_story.html … CX, update on suspected assailant

Suddenly, there was no mention of the race of the attacker. Suddenly, there was no hashtag about ending "AAPI" hate. And suddenly, it was just 'suspected', as opposed to a definite fact.
The stupidity and ignorance of David Beard can also be seen in another tweet, where he complained about the Constitution counting slaves as "only" 3/5.
A Tennessee lawmaker defended a stain on U.S. history—an effort that counted enslaved people as only 3/5s of free people.
Astounded colleagues and critics rebuked him. link - archive.org - archive.today
Guess who agreed with him? Their owners.
The phrase "for no reason at all" comes to mind.
