HBO’s Bill Maher’s habit of reducing a chaotic scene to one photograph continued on Friday’s episode of Real Time, where he compared a photograph of the Alex Pretti shooting to The Last Jew in Vinnitsa photograph during the Holocaust. Joining Maher at the table was MS NOW host Joe Scarborough, who, in other Minneapolis news, declared former CNN host Don Lemon’s arrest was meant “to scare other journalists.”
Maher recalled last week’s show when he declared, “That’s why I showed this picture last week. We can show it again. Executions in the streets. This reminded me of the one from Vietnam in 1968 that changed hearts and minds. This week there’s another one. We had a second shooting that looks just like this. That’s what people are seeing. Pictures worth a thousand words. That did not happen under Obama.”
