For the record American Girl dolls were first released by the Pleasant Company on May 5, 1986.
The dolls portray eight-to fourteen-year-old boys and girls of a variety of ethnicities, faiths, and social classes from different time periods in history.
So why are the dolls being attacked this Christmas?
Get your vomit pail ready because the story is enough to make anyone sick with disgust.
Turns out that a Newsmax anchor (photo above), Rob Finnerty, host of the show "Wake Up America," told his viewers that he took his six-year-old daughter to an American Girl store in Rockefeller Center in New York City in search of a doll that looked like his little daughter.
Near tears, Finnerty told his audience that he couldn't find a single doll that resembled his "cute little 6-year-old white girl."
He lied.
A reporter from MSNBC, Manny Fidel, decided to go to the same store Finnerty took his daughter to.
His findings have gone viral across TikTok, Twitter and Reddit along with other social media platforms.
The first thing Fidel noticed was that the store was brimming with white dolls - not only on display but in boxes stacked high on the shelves and in animated videos on the wall.
Fidel pointed out "The literal first doll that you see when you walk into the store is a smiling white doll with blond pigtails." He videotaped his visit to show the world that Finnerty was a liar and fear-monger.
Mission accomplished.
Meanwhile I wonder what Finnerty's audience thinks about his bullshit story.
Oh! Wait a minute. I forgot that Finnerty's viewers are Newsmax and Fox News zombies that avoid real news and instead nurture the stupidest conspiracies on the planet.
As it stands, it's really sad that outright liars are given big platforms in the right-wing universe. It's even sadder that adults are being led like sheep by wolves in sheep's clothing.
