“The motive for his blatant lies are as clear as they are racist,” El-Shabazz wrote. “It is widely known that Mr. Briggs is in the pocket of those in our community who seek to inject their racist views into this important race.”

El-Shabazz, who is African-American, offered no evidence that Briggs, who is white, was motivated by race or acting on behalf of anyone but his readers.

You can find Briggs’ story at cityandstatepa.com. I encourage you to read it and then El-Shabazz’s response to draw your own conclusions.

El-Shabazz has cried foul before about journalists covering the race for district attorney. In an April 19 post on the website PhillyInFocus.com, which also suggested racism was mixed into the coverage, El-Shabazz claimed: “It’s been clear that I’ve been treated unfairly.”
