RNC Chairman Reince Priebus sent a letter to Jamilah Lemieux, the  digital editor of Ebony Magazine, Friday, seeking an apology for her hateful and outlandish comments aimed at conservatives, yesterday. 

Lemieux spent much of her day Thursday attacking conservatives on Twitter after she racially insulted RNC Deputy Press Secretary Raffi Williams, who is liberal Fox News Commentator Juan Williams’ son. 

The dust-up started with a discussion regarding the new Black conservative news magazine being launched by Ben Carson and Armstrong Williams.

Black conservative blogger and radio talk show host, Wayne Dupree (@newsninja) captured the ugly exchanges, as did Twitchy:

@BETpolitichick @SistahScholar @orlandowatson @Raffiwilliams @hugheynewsome I 100% do not want to know more, I wish I knew less!

This is where Raffi Williams entered the conversation:

@JamilahLemieux wish you knew less? hoped you would encourage diversity of thought. @BETpolitichick @SistahScholar @orlandowatson

— Raffi Williams (@Raffiwilliams) March 27, 2014

Shockingly, Lemieux hasn’t seen fit to delete this next abominable tweet:

@Raffiwilliams @BETpolitichick @SistahScholar @orlandowatson Oh great, here comes a White dude telling me how to do this Black thing. Pass.

— Jamilah Lemieux (@JamilahLemieux) March 27, 2014

And it got worse:

@JamilahLemieux who are you refering to as white… Armstrong and Carson are black @BETpolitichick @SistahScholar @orlandowatson

— Raffi Williams (@Raffiwilliams) March 27, 2014

" layout="responsive" width="600" height="480">@Raffiwilliams @BETpolitichick @SistahScholar @orlandowatson YOU. Now, leave, I have no interest in this conversation.

— Jamilah Lemieux (@JamilahLemieux) March 27, 2014

@JamilahLemieux You are questioning someones blackness.sorry I do not fit your stereotypes @BETpolitichick @SistahScholar @orlandowatson

— Raffi Williams (@Raffiwilliams) March 27, 2014

" layout="responsive" width="600" height="480">

Then came the worst faux apology in the history of faux apologies:

@Raffiwilliams I was looking at your avi without blowing it up. I apologize for that. However, I care about NOTHING you have to say.

— Jamilah Lemieux (@JamilahLemieux) March 27, 2014

And her meltdown wouldn’t be complete without pretentious liberal academic jargon:

When conservatives on Twitter requested a sincere apology, Lemieux reacted with more venom:

@Raffiwilliams was White because I didn’t blow up his avi. And I apologized. Go away.

— Jamilah Lemieux (@JamilahLemieux) March 27, 2014

" layout="responsive" width="600" height="480">@JamilahLemieux Apologized for not looking at @Raffiwilliams picture, not for treating him like less than human. Some “apology”. #Typical

It just went on and on – there’s much more at Twitchy. 

Raffi Williams went on Fox and Friends, this morning to talk about the unfortunate episode, and his desire to write a guest article at Ebony expressing the value of diversity of thought.

Via Wayne Dupree:
 


Williams shouldn’t expect Ebony to be excepting his offer anytime soon if Lemieux has anything to do with it. She doubled down on her sad, closed minded stance, on Friday:

An inviting, charged, and interactive experience under the direction of Editorial Director, Kierna Mayo, EBONY.com is a community-powered site for hot topics and trends, advice, critical conversation, and the best in entertainment and breaking news on Black life in America.

(Emphasis mine.)

Encouraging diversity of thought within the African American community doesn’t seem to be a priority for  Senior editor, Jamilah Lemieux, as sadly, she considers it “against her best interest and the interests of most.”
