Conservative Catholic Actress Patricia Heaton: the Media Owes the Covington Students Restitution
If you’re not up on the Covington Catholic High School story, I recommend you do some learnin’. A good place to visit would be RedState writer Jennifer Van Laar’s author page, where you’ll find this and this. Bonus: Not only is Jennifer a star writer; she has excellent taste in music.
Another good place to visit would be my author page. Not because I’ve written about the story, but because I relish the visitation. Gracias.
I’d also like to welcome Patricia Heaton, but she probably doesn’t know who I am. She does, however, know about the boys in Kentucky.
Subsequently, the conservative Christian and outspoken pro-life actress took to Twitter Monday to defend the students against a blood-hungry mainstream media.
A quick summary of the ordeal:
A video of a group of Catholic schoolkids laughing and chanting around a few American Indian protesters led by a man named Elder Nathan Phillips went viral recently. The clip was interpreted as a racist attack.
The media jumped the gun, perhaps due to the presence of MAGA hats (Say it ain’t so!).
Fast-forward to today, and Catholic Patricia lamenting that — despite apologies from news agencies — the damage of hasty and erroneous reporting has sadly already been done:
1. I’m seeing what I believe to be sincere apologies from some journalists and verified media persons regarding their lack of professionalism in rushing to judgement re the #CovingtonCatholic situation.
— Patricia Heaton (@PatriciaHeaton) January 21, 2019
2. These apologies are welcome and necessary, but they don’t address the damage that cannot be undone which was inflicted upon young people who are about to embark on adulthood – applying to colleges, looking for employment, etc.
— Patricia Heaton (@PatriciaHeaton) January 21, 2019
True.
3. These young people will forever have these smears follow them through their life every time they proffer their resume with the word “Covington” on it. It will also affect anyone who ever has or ever will attend that school. The damage is incalculable.

4. And yet those who perpetrated this destruction, no matter how unintended, are still at their jobs, with nary a consequence for their reckless behavior.
— Patricia Heaton (@PatriciaHeaton) January 21, 2019
In addition to her great use of the word “nary,” Patricia’s right.
The Everybody Loves Raymond star’d like to see restitution:
5. It seems to me that an apology without some kind of accompanying action which speaks to the seriousness of their transgression – a suspension from work, some loss of pay – renders any apology empty.
— Patricia Heaton (@PatriciaHeaton) January 21, 2019
6. Some kind of compensatory action would go a long way in signaling their recognition of the seriousness of their transgression and help to restore what’s left of the public’s very fragile trust in their reputations as trustworthy journalists.

Strong sentiments from a strong woman.
Previously, we got strong words with a strong smell:
Of course, this isn’t the first time the Left’s rushed to incriminate with regard to Trump or his supporters — just see here, here, here, here, here, and here.
It’s not likely it’ll be the last. Hopefully, the students will find justice, so much as it can be served.
Patricia Heaton’s on their side. So is the truth.

Genesis 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.This manufactured story was published to distract from the Buzzfeed Debacle.
The left is becoming totally depraved. We do not put children to death in this country. The more the leftist media publishes fake news the more credibility they lose. Editorial page
