We're all fact-checkers now.
2:27AM, New York time, Tues., 9/4/12, on BBC Radio, the UK government owned radio network:
A BBC host was chatting with Anna Sale of WNYC radio (local NY City NPR affiliate) about the US presidential election. The BBC host asked Ms. Sale what Obama was going to do about the "BILLIONAIRE" he was running against. (He especially enunciated the word "billionaire"). Anna Sale, though apparently a genius and former "Racial Justice" fellow, made no attempt to politely correct this obvious lie. I guess Ms. Sale is no longer interested in justice or is uninterested in justice for white people.
In June 2012, Forbes estimated Romney's net worth to be $260 million.
The BBC host was only off by $800 million but he knew the WNYC employee wouldn't correct him.
============================
Ed. note: Rather than encouraging legitimate political discussion, apparently the UK government prefers to lie, falsely inflame hatred and envy, and divert attention from examination of Obama's extensive record. Romney is very rich of course but he's nowhere near the $44 billion that Obama pal Warren Buffet is worth. Or even the $20 billion Obama pal George Soros has. Obama himself is worth $6 million.
