One of the headlines on FoxNews.com at this moment (3:55 p.m. ET – see screen shot below) is this: “The School of Right – Ultra-Conservative Group that Bills Itself as ‘America’s Right-Wing Conservative Youth Movement’ Riles Students Nationwide.“
Per the article, the group, “Youth for Western Civilization” (check out their logo) hopes to “inspire Western youth on the ‘basis of pride in their American and Western heritage,’ counter and ultimately defeat ‘leftism on campus’ and create a social movement in which a right-wing subculture is an alternative to what it calls a ‘poisonous and bigoted’ campus climate.”
YWC debuted in February at the Conservative Political Action Conference. Its honorary chairman is former Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo. Its membership is estimated to be, “roughly 10 active members at each of its college chapters. Aside from UNC, DeAnna said YWC has a presence at Vanderbilt University, American University, Elon University, the University of Rhode Island, the University of Connecticut-Storrs and Bentley University.” It is currently being monitored by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
So. Here we have an ultra-conservative group of radicals consisting of roughly 70 people – that would be 70 PEOPLE – being given headline news status on the website of the largest and most conservative “news” organization in the country.
Interesting indeed.
