Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Clifford P. Kincaid Jr., known as Cliff Kincaid (born May 16, 1954),[1] is an author and conservative political activist. He is the director of the Center for Investigative Journalism of Accuracy in Media, an organization which believes much of the American news media is biased toward liberal candidates and policy positions. Kincaid has written for such publications as Human Events.[2]

Background

Kincaid graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in journalism and communications from the University of Toledo in Toledo, Ohio. At his college newspaper, he won an award for editorial writing from the Society of Professional Journalists. Kincaid came to Washington, D.C., through the National Journalism Center headed by the late conservative author M. Stanton Evans. In addition to his work with A. I. M., Kincaid is the president of American Survival, Inc., a 501 (c) (3) organization for stated "educational" purposes, based in Owings, Maryland.[3]

Accuracy in media

In November 2005, Kincaid, as the representative for Accuracy in Media, criticized the Fox News channel for the broadcast, The Heat is On, which reported, with a disclaimer, the threat of global warming. Kincaid argued that the program was one-sided and likened the broadcast to a "hostile takeover of Fox News" by the environmental lobby.[4]

Kincaid is a longtime critic of the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Alabama. According to the SPLC, Kincaid "masquerades as a media watchdog, [but] is actually an unrepentant propagandist for extremist right-wing causes who knows few boundaries in his attempts to smear liberal foes".[5]

Kincaid discounts the existence of gay conservatives, but claims "there is a homosexual movement that has its roots in Marxism and is characterized by anti-Americanism and hatred of Christian values."[5]

On June 14, 2016, after the Orlando nightclub shooting, Kincaid penned the article "Why Obama Gets Emotional Talking about Islam." This report claims that under President Barack Obama "the religion of a suspect is NOT to be judged or pursued when questions emerge about Muslims having links to terrorism. [...] [This] presidential approach [...] has cost many lives in Orlando and puts more lives at risk in the nation at large".[6]

He has been on the board of advisors of Stop Islamization of America, which has described him as a "leader of the struggle to keep the jihadist propaganda network Al-Jazeera off American airwaves."[7]

Television appearances

Kincaid sometimes substituted for co-host Pat Buchanan in the late 1980s on the former CNN television series, Crossfire, which offered debate on liberal v. conservative topics. He has appeared on The Today Show on NBC, the CBS Evening News, Hannity & Colmes, The O’Reilly Factor, Lou Dobbs Tonight, and The Glenn Beck Show.[8]
