 CONSERVATIVE
ACTIVIST RECOUNTS ALLEGED ASSAULT ON CAMPUS: A conservative activist
whose alleged attack on the University of California-Berkeley was
captured on video told Fox News' Sean Hannity that he feared for his safety ...
"This person claimed we were promoting violence on campus and proceeded
to take his aggression out on us,” Hayden Williams said in an interview
on "Hannity" Thursday night. Williams sported a black eye after he was punched while assisting conservative group Turning Point USA recruit members. Williams, a representative for Leadership Institute, is not a member of Turning Point.
According to Williams, some students took offense to a sign at
the recruitment table that read "Hate Crime Hoaxes Hurt Real Victims."
(The sign referenced the Jussie Smollett case.) The group also had a
sign that read “This is MAGA Country.” Police are searching for the man
captured in the video. The university has condemned the violent act.

REPORT: 2020 DEM HOPEFULS WARREN AND HARRIS BACK REPARATIONS: Two leading Democratic presidential candidates -- U.S.
Sens. Kamala Harris of California and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts
-- have reportedly said they support reparations for black Americans
affected by slavery, reflecting a shift in the importance of race and identity issues within the party ...
The New York Times reported Thursday that Harris doubled down on her
support for reparations after agreeing with a host on the popular radio
show “The Breakfast Club” that the race-conscious policy was necessary
to address the legacies of slavery and discrimination in the United
States. Warren told the Times in an interview she also supports
reparations. Julian Castro, another Democrat running for president, has
indicated that he would support reparations.
OSCARS SHOW WILL GO ON SUNDAY - EVEN WITHOUT A HOST: There's no host, no best popular film category and no awards relegated to commercial breaks. However, the 91st annual Academy Awards
show will go on. While questions regarding the telecast appear to have
been answered, debate remains as to who will win the coveted awards this
season. Does “Black Panther” pounce? Will “Bohemian Rhapsody” rock?
Might “The Favourite” be the favorite? Could “A Star Is Born” shine
bright? Click here for some predictions on FoxNews.com for the 2019 Oscars.

THE SOUNDBITE
'THE HOLY VICTIM' - "'You can talk to me,’ says
Don Lemon. 'Because there aren’t a lot of us out there.' Here’s the
translation: 'Us,' means people who’ve been oppressed in the ways Jussie
Smollett has. Lemon is letting you know that he’s in that group, too.
Yes, he’s a highly paid news anchor with his own show. Yet, like Jussie
Smollett, Don Lemon is a holy victim. But who’s really the victim here?
... An entire group of people got slandered by this hoax. Regular people
from outside the coastal cities. People with the wrong political
beliefs and the wrong skin color." – Tucker Carlson, on "Tucker Carlson Tonight," reflecting on the potential ramifications of the Jussie Smollett case.
