Yikes, I thought NPR was supposed to be unbiased?
Ur wrong. No mocking
FAKENEWS
Have you apologized yet NPR?!
So, where were the chaperones to help control the students? Where were the adults who should have guided the students with 'christian' values? The video clearly shows the students mocking the Native Americans, not supporting them. Where were the DC police during this incident?
At this point, how is going to regain credibility?
Fake by fake news NPR
Hey give chief some free fire water and send him on his way. That's all he's looking for anyway, free stuff. 2a
These are democrats disguised as President’ followers; democrats do whatever crazy things to lie. The Lord bless America and our President.
The story is slowly coming out ...Black Hebrew Israelites were also protesting and encountered the MAGA cap group. That confrontation of groups was potentially very volatile ..and the indigenous group intervened to stop potential violence.
This “story” requires a serious update and revised title, if not an all out retraction. Here’s hoping the “A Team” comes in Monday morning and recognizes the incomplete and inaccurate “journalism”. DoYourJob
Apparently those spoiled brats don’t have enough tough nuns at that school to beat a little decency into them. Bunch of little Brett Kavanaughs in the making
Dumb kids
If you’re taking sides in this... you’re wrong. Especially if you’re basing it on the color of their skin or the clothes they are wearing. There are many videos of this from many angles and the “Native American” man was instigating the boys. Judge a man by his actions not skin.
Where were the police? This is blatant harassment.
Total bullshit story.. kids were being normal.. not bullying anyone! They actually were trying in their own way to chant along in a fun, teen way.. leave the kids alone! Read here:
This was ALL a lie. A set up! Correct the story! See thread:
The parents are getting representation to sue the media, NPR. You may want to retract this FakeNews story quickly. Do you even verify anything anymore? Why do my tax $ go to your hate against Christians? Watched the whole 1:45 hour video from the Black Israelites spewing racism.
Maybe as a news outlet you could do the country a favor and report the entire story rather than stoking the flames of hatred and division. Oh wait my bad
What mocking? I saw them just standing there minding their own business.
Kentucky has the stupidest parents in the country! They drove those kids there to make fools of themselves, & they only accomplished shame.
Absolutely disgusting behavior by this white boy and his white friends. They should apologize for their atrocious behavior. abolishwhitesupremicy wearebetterunited
You might want to show the whole video....
The definition of fake news. Watch a video or 2, or keep getting stories from buzzfeed.
fakenews watch the whole video.
What would you expect from trump supporters?
Ignorance. Group mentality. Shameful. They should be expelled.
This little shit gets his 15 minutes of fame and is marked as an ignorant, racist pawn for the rest of his miserable, unproductive life. I wonder if he’s even intelligent enough to realize it all. He is wearing a MAGA hat, after all. 😑
In 1980’s they warned us what would happen if southerners got control in Washington. Racism, xenophobia easily manipulated plantation politics
Won't they make wonderful fathers for their yet unborn children?
This is Trump's America. Sad!
Not to excuse them, but American teens are stupid and asinine by nature. As a society we do a piss poor job of instilling respect or humility. Hopefully this is a teaching moment of a lifetime for them.
That video is sickening
Should this boy be outted?
NPR gets caught being a dope for a trope....
This is unconscionable!!!!!! I'm discussed as a retired educator.
I love how Republicans are all about a hard stance on values and condemn whoever they want but once people condemn openly identified Nazis and bigots they jump to the 'well everyone deserves a voice' argument.
Ahhh... Kentucky is now added to Mississippi, Alabama and NC.
Stop it. There's plenty of video to prove that your claim is a blatant lie.
Oh you meant....Video or professional protester trying to bait High School students.....fify
Well, it appears that the Catholics really know how to educate white children to hate and feel supreme. ReligionIsHate
Not what I saw!
It doesn’t matter why they were there. It doesn’t matter who started it. What matters is the bigotry, racism and disrespect given to someone due to race who also happens to be a veteran who fought for this country.
Cowards
For some reason Google has locked the reviews of Covington Catholic High School.
Vile little shits!
This outcry would end if our media sources would give the entire story. Unfortunately NPR is trying to control what you believe to be true, just like most of the others.
ExpelCovington Those vicious racist creatures deserve to have their lives utterly destroyed
This is what American privilege looks like in 2019. Twitter
Hitler youth
StandingRockST .. and Not to mention that their 'red hats' also make a political statement from a group(catholic) that claims to be apolitical. Two definite wrongs from what should be a supervised group. Where are the supervisors?
Um... You might want to have your journalists update this story.
Ir is MOST UNFORTUNATE that these IGNORANT People chose to wear MAGA Hats as they do NOT REFLECT the VALUES most Trump supporters hold dear.
The deplorables that make the MAGA mob, once again, embarrassing America in front of the world with their lack of decency, lack of compassion, idiocy, ignorance & abusiveness. They embody the worst traits of US people and are subjects of scorn because they’re selfish & stupid.
Don't worry! These Rich White Catholics can just PAY their Indulgence fee to the church like they did in the past and ALL will be right with the Church. Pontifex CatholicCincy
FakeNews
his parents have got a lot of explaining to do...apples don't fall far from the tree
Tell the whole story, you dolts!
I have to say this.. in the videos I watched I didn't see any harassment. That boy standing 2 inches from the drummers face was very rude but the other boys were clapping and dancing? Seems like their biggest crime in court of public opinion is those red hats...
The guy standing in the elders face should be ashamed and his family should be ashamed of him.
Looks like they were just reacting to the excitement of the drum, but we'll note how the Native Americans there immediately used it as an excuse to denounce president Trump and the United States.
The article does not provide all of the context. Video show that the elderly man went out of his way and approached the kids. Kids were wrong, but the man needs to take some responsibility for instigating this.
The left owes kids a pizza party. Start gofundme!
Fake news. I hope this kids sue the media's for writing false statements. You guys are destroying this kids life. Shame on you.
Welcome to realDonaldTrump America where hate intolerance are family value passed down to your children.
If they were private school kids name the school not the state.
These children are beyond ignorant and disgraceful. They should be expelled.
Catholic high school students
Unfortunately the Xtian religion has become very radical and threatening in America.
False reporting. More misinformation. And you say that you are a non bias media outlet...BS....reasons like this is why I stopped supporting you.
Show the whole video. Fake news!
NPR should not print stories that are not based in FACTS. PLEASE WATCH UNEDITED VIDEO.
And supplemental video exposes the media again as a group of bigots furthering an agenda, regardless of who gets hurt. Shame on you.
McConnell hasn’t said a word. It’s his state. Not a word.
Irresponsible reporting. The Native American man and his entourage approached the students, chanting and banging drums. The leader got within inches of the young man who just stood his ground and smiled. Other students joined in the chant and singing. No mocking, no taunting
This is what MAGA boils down too.. ignorance, racism, bigotry, xenophobia and HATE... that’s all that breeds... that’s all all it promotes...
Just unbelievable! Strict punishment is in order!
The media only shows a brief clip that appears to show a prep school kid taunting a Native AmericanThe full video shows oppositekids never moved, never approached him. It was Native American who approached them when he saw Trump hats, got awkwardly closegot right in face of stude
Apparently his mother blamed his behavior on black Muslims. The white trash didn’t fall far from the dumpster. RACISM still exists!
Fake news
Fake news at its finest
Making the Pope, their school and parents proud. Look what we’re learning.
Let’s build a wall around Kentucky.
Kentucky has a BIG RACIST, DISRESPECTFUL PROBLEM that they need to address. Guess their elected officials is where they should start...
Pontifex ...Whom do assume the blame should be pointed at in this disturbing situation? I am being serious asking you this question. catholicschools
I bet Donald would be proud of this young man. This lad should have payed more attention to the teachings of Jesus instead of the teachings of Trump.
To think of one of my kids doing that-never mind, not one of them would.
Represents Kentucky....what do you expect? Home of Lincoln my ass....better known for good horses then decent people. Young white kid with a lot of other white kids behind him....what a shock he would act like a punk?
You are still tweeting out this junk when it's already been disproven with video evidence? What an agenda. I listen to NPR daily, but I hope your public funding gets yanked because you foment a mob mentality against members of the public who were minding their own business.
Why does NPR continue to spead a false narrative?
Fake news.
Are you going to retract this story. Review all the videos and write an honest story.
Not news, fake news, one sided... take ur pick.
The Catholic school sent the kids to the protest and a Catholic Priest was part of it. Disgusting. This is why I don't like organized religion.
The truth is in the whole video These kids should be owed an apology.
post the entire video
Fake news
This is a highly overblown story that MSM is capitalizing on over the optics of MAGA hats.
Francesca Paris is a liar.
Fake news.
Annnndd, you are still falsely reporting this. What rubbish. Whats wrong with these press people?
Where is Kentucky's political leader? What's his name again? Oh...right...senatemajldr...again, where?
Am i missing something? Looks like an Indian guy beating a drum in the face of some awkward kid. With a bunch of other kids just standing there. The fuck are you people talking about?
I hope that NPR, being an unbiased news source, publishes all of the video as well as the students' letter defending themselves from these allegations... I also hope all cases involving minors being violent toward adults with Conservative political views are also published.
Good thing the 64 year old is non-violent because he clearly could have whooped the ass of the geeky punk who got in his face. Mr. tough guy lol. Now that the whole nation knows what a jerk he is, maybe he will wise up. Embarrassing.
watch the full video
Here is the full video if anyone wants to know the whole story. There was only one group throwing out racial slurs and it wasn't the ones wearing MAGA hats. About 1:11 minutes in.
Wow, you're doubly pathetic! Late to the news cycle- & repeating the false narrative pushed yesterday! And you get taxpayer money for THIS?
Your video is edited ( No Surprise)
Most of us are beyond outcry....deep seeded sadness beyond words. When it’s the kids who have been taught to hate it breaks my soul.
these idiots are mainly white boys--- why am I not surprised?
Why don't you step up and report the real story,
NPR is fake news.
Every college/university globally should refuse admittance to this entitled POS & ostracize him. His parents should be outed for raising such an evil & un-empathetic sub human, & society should stare at them the way their son did this Native American. evil pathetic vile
And just like that. It’s all lies. Psh
Investigate your reports a bit more rather than just regurgitate news. The kid was standing there when the old man approached him.
I guess my next question is who was the aggressor. Did the children approach the the group of native Americans or did the native Americans approach the children? I’ve seen reports depicting both sides. Once I know that, I can determine fault.
He has no clue of indigenous history, walls were at ever corner of the country, pueblous, and other tribes used cliffs as walls. Against Aztec and tribal invasions, but truth doesn’t make such bow/tied sound bites.
This edited video doesn't show what really happened. Judge for yourself 'Response from Cov Cath student who says he was present at the event in question in Washington'
Whole video different story, kids could have been more respectful but the native American adults were the bullies. Please report the truth. So tired of bad journalism
DEBUNKED. See the entire video. The media is (still) lying to you,
These are Catholic school kids. They are supposedly learning the teachings of Christ, right? Did their teachers and priests skip this one?
Try context
Full video reveals the opposite
That Native American elder looks nothing like my Native American elders and ancestors.😂😂And yes I said MY native Americans. elders/ancestors. Before you me learn true history and what whitewashing is.
First they lied about the President & is doing so on a daily basis.... Now the Media targets the young without facts....simply because he was wearing a MAGA hat. Preposterous!
The kid was minding his own business and the elderly man came to his face , really close to his face and started to chant. The incident didn’t evolve, actually ended well.
Stop spreading nprfakenews. The kids were there and the group of elder indian Americans walked up to them playing the drums. The kids just stood there. The kids did nothing wrong unlike leftist teens assaulting a 70 yo old man trump supporter last year. Where were you then?
Personally, tired of the outcry. I want to know about the consequences for their disgusting behavior.
This video will not age well for the punk with the racist Trump hat on and the smirk on his face.
Please do no give false news.
The role models of our youth (celebrities, politicians, athletes, media, etc.) own the discord and disrespect we see. Calling POTUS MOTHER F*cker, disrespecting our flag, purposely publishing lies...WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
Not surprising considering the school has a Confederate Soldier as its Mascot and describes its student body as a 'Brotherhood.' EndRacism RacisminSchool MAGARacists
Behold the 21st Century version of people who once stood in a crowd long ago & yelled, 'Give us Barabbas!' condemning to death a man whose only crime was being guilty of preaching love, tolerance & inclusion! The only difference? Today, they actually call themselves 'Christians'!
I know that Senator Majority Leader nowhere to be seen is on top of this one.
So. Now it is clear. This leftist, anti Trump native group saw the MAGA hats and picked a target. (Ps there are lots of natives that support Trump. They are as different as any other demographic)
Homestate of our missing majority leader. WheresMitch ? Seem like real great folks.
This is how low trump supporters will go. They were actually so offended by an elder singing a Native American song that they mocked and harassed him. They are offended by the heritage of our country because they only see our country as white. They are parrots of bigoted parents
I think I heard that they ended up singing with him in the end.
Enough hatred. ENOUGH
I hope this becomes a teaching experience how to interact when faced with an adversarial or tense situation. Do these boys know how they are being perceived by their actions? Are they truly being mean and arrogant? I want to see the entire incident. How did the disrespect start?
Not cool.very apologies to all native Americans for the lack of manners of some people
realDonaldTrump this is the america you’ve made, congrats
Report the entire video. The Old man came at them, he instigated this whole event. Report it all or remain a Democrat shill.
Fake news show the whole video
Thanks ! Always delivering the best fake news
👀
So they were standing there minding their own businesses and he approached them, yet they are the bad ones.
This is TOTALLY Fake News!!! The Native American guy was clearly the antagonist who approached the boys while pounding a drum in their faces. Their respose was to stand there and smile.
Fake News!
Kids don’t realize from the Native American perspective they are the foreign, alien refugees of a different skin colour.. the first ‘Caravan’.. Maybe that is some sort of cautionary tale about immigration but thankfully these are different times.
Fake news again
Stop lying!!!! STOP STOP STOP!!!! The people want real journalism. You people are sick!!!
This is Trump's America..........are we proud?
NPR, stand strong with your reporting. Thank you for good reporting & not bending to those who want to change the story. Stay strong.
False narrative.
This is totally fake news....why stoke a flame that will get a bunch of kids ridiculed...this is sick and irresponsible!!!
Some kids’ parents man, it’s unreal there’s this level of disrespect still thriving in our younger generations today. Shame on their parents and them both.
Forget the fact that they were native Americans these kids need to respect their elderly!
Only on Twitter is a grown man banging a drum in a kids face the victim, while the kid standing their doing nothing is getting doxxed by celebrities.
Lol thanks NPR I needed a good laugh this morning.
The video clearly shows the the nylafellows activists approaching and engaging multiple students in order to get a reaction. If these red hats were true fascist that drum would have been stomped into bits. I guess they don't make fascists like they used to.
it's refreshing to see white boys acting like white boys for a change. this is a positive development even if misdirected. stop pushing white men back and putting them down and we'll go back to being too nice.
Is this a Gillette ad too
You have absolutely no credibility anymore when it comes to reporting the news. You have sunk to the level of the national enquirer. Falsely smearing children because you disagree with our presidents politics. A new low.
I am disgusted by these kids. Entitlement and ignorance at its finest.
The entire clip tells a different story. Do your job npr
The bumping and grinding going in D.C. is creating an AmericanSilt that will suffocate upcoming generations, it will take decades to dredge this swamp!
An abusive Catholic? I’m shocked! 😱
Here. To help with your inaccurate reporting. You're welcome.
This is fake news. Needs to be retracted immediately.
This is not just disrespectful, it is a sad and pitiful. Children should be raised better. If my child did something like this I would be ashamed. I hope these kids learn better soon.
The students themselves need to apologize to the Native American war veteran. The students, as all young adults, need to understand consequences of thoughtless and unkind behavior.
I understand the freedom, but why kids that were going to a march of life were wearing a hat with a political slogan? Good question to ask to the school! Is the school affiliated to the political party?
Watch the full video everyone. Don't believe the biased media.
This is REAL BAD AND SICK!, hey NPR can U get this on all TV / text Etc... or 2 the NYT paper plz !!!. people need to ACT on these Punks ! thank u, polishk 1.20.19
An old dude walks into the middle of a group of high school students banging a drum into their faces while his party screams, “Go Back to Europe”. That’s the real story stripped of your identity politics filter.
Honor the elder, and not the racist boy who claims to be a Catholic.
Disappointing to see NPR post this hyped up outrage culture story, and only report on selected parts of it
You need to pull this story back or update with actual facts of the situation. Or you truly are the enemy of the people
McConnell voters
I think the reason this video gained any traction at all was cause there was an obvious tension you can feel through the video. Otherwise, it’s just a video of a smug 18-year-old standing uncomfortably close to to a Native American man.
Dude. Anyone watch the video in their own link?
Anyone know where the chaperones were at the time this happened
Complete LIE! thank you Buzzfeed
The Native American appears to be taunting the young man in the video, not the other way around.
lie. not mocking.
Hold this school & parents responsible. This is deplorable. So Kentucky, McConnell's state. Now we really know Who he is.
Aanhh lla lla llaaaaa anhhn lla lla llaaaaaa anh lla lla llaaaaaaaa 🎶✋🏻
What’s drawing even more outcry is the media’s efforts to destroy the lives of these high school students. NPR, which thrives on taxpayer dollars, owes better reporting to the public.
Make America Great Again? Emulate the dignity of Nathan Phillips if you want to Make America Great Again.
NPR unaware of letter student wrote to local news media disputing incident coverage... As usual this story has been manipulated and spun
He’s a moron for sure but He just stood there. How is that mocking?
Actually that’s not the whole thing, Mr. Phillips instigated it by interrupting them. Now what they did after is another conversation, but you gotta report every side and not just one.
Love to smack that kid rt on his smug ass face. He is from a Catholic school too. In my Catholic schooling we were taught to love one another, that we are all brothers and sisters. It is sad what is going on now, thanks to Trump and his enablers.😞
Why don’t you report the real story
And here is NPR to continue the false narrative... The native american man walked into a group of kids who were chanting school songs. The man (protestor) confronted them banging his drums. The kid stood there smiling. You are fakenews
You are a news cycle behind and a video/story late
