Today’s Washington Post touts a study that repeats the “Republicans are racists” mantra.
That study found that supporters of President Bush and other conservatives had stronger self-admitted and implicit biases against blacks than liberals did.
But for some reason, the paper fails to include some key facts about the study’s conductors. Aside from being bad news for Howard Dean’s Presidential aspirations, it’s a pretty inflammatory accusation. Looking at the folks behind the “study” it’s not surprising they’d reach such a conclusion (hat tip: Michelle).
Harvard psychologist Mahzarin Banaji is a Democrat contributor. University of Virginia psychologist Brian Nosek is also a Democrat contributor. It’s interesting that the paper chose to ignore such obvious bias. Interesting… but not surprising.
