“The judge is lying.” Alabama’s most conservative news outlet just turned on Roy Moore
“The judge is lying.” Alabama’s most conservative news outlet just turned on Roy Moore
Things just went from bad to worse for GOP Senate candidate and accused sexual predator Roy Moore.
YellowHammer News, one of Alabama’s most conservative news outlets, has been among the most staunch defenders of the GOP candidate. After the first allegations of sexual misconduct against Moore surfaced last week, YellowHammer jumped to his defense, encouraging their readers not to join the “frenzied attack” on Moore.
But now, as the allegations continue to pile up, even YellowHammer can’t defend the Alabama politician.
In a stunning turnaround, J. Pepper Bryars — the same YellowHammer writer who penned multiple articles defending Moore and calling the accusations against him a political hit job — wrote on Wednesday that he has come to a conclusion about Moore.
“[T]he judge is lying, and the accusers are telling the truth,” Bryars wrote.
