NBC’s Curry Claims Gingrich ‘Playing the Race Card’ in South Carolina

Posted by Raw Editor on January 21, 2012 in politics |

On Thursday’s NBC Today, co-host Ann Curry accused Newt Gingrich of playing up racial tensions to get votes in the South Carolina GOP primary: “…you’ve been increasingly stepping up your characterization of President Obama as a “food stamp president,” interestingly, in the lead-up now to South Carolina….Are you intentionally playing the race card to win votes?”

Gingrich dismissed the accusation and condemned those promoting it: “You know, modern liberals are just, I think frankly, totally off the deep end….their only answer is to yell racism and hide.”
