Isn’t he the one in black face?

It isn't funny now, and it wasn't funny then. Period.

Isn’t he the one in black face?

Eastern Virginia Medical School is canceled.. 1984? 1984

Aren't the Democrats pushing for full term abortion in VA?

Hey BretBaier you missed this one.

Oh boy.. another Dem KKK exposed. More to come.

As a conservative, I would never wear either one of those outfits. The 80s wasn't the civil war era. No excuses.

CNN tiptoeing around the obvious reality.

Oh I thought dems were the good guys

What happened to no lib left behind?😂😂

According to CNN and liberals he must resign/ be fired. Nope doesn’t matter if it happened 30 years ago or if he apologizes. After all it’s what the liberals demand.

This Dem is a racist and is ok with killing babies outside the womb. And the left thinks that Trump is Hitler.

Resign

When we will finally view each other as just human beings!!!!! Our differences should be celebrated. I always think we have something to learn from one another. I don't accept that apology from him; it seems disingenuous!!! The picture is horrible!!!

Let’s keep him comfortable while we decide whether to terminate this abomination.

You'd be surprised at other Democrat politicians that have dressed like this. Like the Clinton's. Oh but it was okay, because they grew up in Arkansas in racists time period. Kinda like Senator Byrd that they also protected.

He’s a Democrat. Party of the KKK. Nonetheless he will be quickly forgiven. You’ll never see this story again.

Under no circumstance is this to be tolerated. He should resign immediately. Serving in government is a privilege, not a right.

And of course this won’t be on Jake Tapper and all your other shows and you won’t call for him to step down like kavanagh right ?

First the crazy statement he made about babies and now this. WTH. He needs to go. Also the fact the school even allowed this in the book is a problem

Where's the outrage from the hypocrite left 🤔

As a Democratic Please Resign , Actions Have consequences Resign

“MORE YEARBOOK FUN: Gov. Ralph Northam’s nickname at VMI was ‘Coonman’”

'shows a photograph of two people,' One is him.... Fake News by omission.

I think anyone supporting the baby killing democratic party is brain dead but this happened 25 years ago, get over it!

Before I moved to the U.S from Switzerland I didn’t even know what black face or the kkk was. Democrats were the slave owners, the kkk and the party of Jim Crow. The Governor needs to resign.

See ya Governor.

Can you imagine if this was Ann Coulter or Richard Spencer? The headlines wouldn’t be understated. We are taking all of your jobs, CNN. We’re going to delegitimize you like we did HuffPo, Vice, etc. We will get you all laid off and out of business.

Where are all the Democrat's calling for his resignation A 'I'm sorry' doesn't cut it. Get out you racist.

Why do you say ' Two people' you should say 'Northam and another man' see how easy the Truth is Cnn

It’s ok everyone. At least it wasn’t a maga hat.

C'ya, Ralphie.

Disgusting!

Lock him out!

Hahaha sucks to b u

Governor Northam should step down and EVMS needs to be held accountable for allowing this ignorance in their yearbook. Hold all politicians to the same standard.

Disgraceful. The medical school is at fault as well for publishing this nonsense!

It's Virginia....

GovernorVA Pay no attention to these political pundits & circumstantial situational idiots who think what once was acceptable & normal behavior then, should be the basis for resignation today!! Times change and so do people, practice, policy & procedure CNN

What is it that the left says? Oh yeah...toolate

No one said anything when he used racist word for Native Americans! ‘Northam: As a lifelong burgundy and gold fan, and a proponent of creating new jobs, I will continue Governor McAuliffe’s aggressive pursuit of landing the next Redskins stadium here in Virginia.’ Phonies!

Killing babies after birth is OK but this is what gets you?

The article on your mobile app makes no mention of the other GIANT reason this guy has been in the news the last few days. Shame on you. I'm usually a fan of CNN, but this is pathetic.

Y'all pulling those hoods out of the closet HUH?

Same guy that wants to kill babies days before delivery?

Congratulations to Justin Fairfax the new Governor of Virginia 🍾🎉🎊

Sure does not help the Democrat image as the party without racism.

What about DonLemon_CNN will he ever apologize for his racist remarks?

Lets see how you protect and support a real racist cnn!!!!

Gee, how did your crack reporters not pick this up when he was running for Gov...yet another fine standard of doing your job...bet if he was a GOP you would have found this day one.

Remember when Dems tried to destroy Kavanaugh over a HS yearbook? Why are they silent when VA Gov Northam, who is an advocate for post-birth abortion, has a MEDICAL SCHOOL yearbook page with a Klansman and a blackface? Dems already saying “oh he was young”. Oh the hypocrisy

Still fighting the war of northern aggression down there is Virginia? Unbelievable

Damn those democrats are racist.

He belongs to the same party as all my elected officials marty_walsh ewarren SenMarkey nickcollinsma wutrain mfflaherty RepStephenLynch

Narrative... Falling apart... True racists... Being exposed! Ugh! RacistBabyKiller infanticide kkk

One is him, not two men. One man and the Governor.

Remember when progressives were getting attacked for not wanting to support this guy? Centrists are one again shown to be frauds.

why is a kkk guy in a yearbook is the real question

So I guess it’s ok for a white guy to be a racist POS as long as he’s a TheDemocrats! Where’s the outrage KamalaHarris, CoryBooker, RepMaxineWaters, BarackObama, repjohnlewis?

He should resign.

If this were a Republican it would be wall to wall coverage on your pathetic network.

Can you imagine if that had been a republican!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How come you aren’t using the picture as the headline Acosta

Instant classic

So CNN will spend as much time covering this as the two judges' year books?

Better take this down CNN. He is a Democrat. One of yours.

KARMA

Northam confirms he is in that photo.

Can't wait to see the Ebony and Ivory twina, ChrisCuomo and donlemon, talk about this one. Bet they won't. Be right or be quiet...

Watched CNN’s response; portrayed this guy as just a nice guy! Double standard much? Now there saying we need to understand how he might not have known the impact down the road.

Right or Left there’s no debate. That type of behavior at any age is and has always been unacceptable. He needs to resign or be removed immediately. This isn’t up for discussion. Get him and any one who thinks or thought that type of behavior was acceptable.

Wow the Clinton News Network actually made this news did they get tired of the Mueller investigation

As Trump supporters having been saying all along...

I would like to know, what human being felt the photos were acceptable enough to Publish in a Medical Year book?

Uh oh......

Since he wasn't wearing a MAGA hat it's 👌.

Now that we know it was him - he should resign.

I bet Americans can now see why we want to MAGA !

Resign you racist!!!

Hey, CNN....is there any doubt that if this had been a republican he would have been vetted thoroughly enough so this would have come out well before the election? Comments on your lack of research on liberal candidates?

Every United States politician, right now!

How did he not know this would surface sooner or later and not have a quick response for it ready to go ? Racist or stupid either way not good. The longer it takes for a response the worse it gets.

But ' RePuBLicANs ArE RaciSt ' 🧐🧐🧐

BUT BUT BUT BUT HES A DEMOCRAT😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Oh look ! A Dem ! If this were a Republican it would have surfaced long ago!

Here comes the mob

Talk about a bad week...supported killing babies and careers...

Somewhere Judge Kavanaugh is laughing and having a beer in anticipation of watching Democrats who tried to ruin him running for cover. Oh, and hack media like Fake News CNN. I almost forgot you.

Wait Kavanaugh said ‘butt’ in his yearbook and you were ready to destroy his life. Where is the outrage? This is unbelievable -

When are Democrat voters going to wake up and realize the Democratic Party IS THE PARTY OF THE KKK. They only support abortion so much so they can influence population control over certain races- STILL! To. this. day.

He shouldn’t be allowed to represent Americans & needs to resign immediately.

Don't mind me and my otter, we're just here for the ratio.

The only way he can save this one is if he’s the white guy in blackface and his buddy the Klansman is black.

And Republicans are POUNCING!!

RalphNortham needs to resign. This is not acceptable for anyone holding public office. ResignNortham

Wearing a MAGA hat or now being a Democrat in VA does not mean you are racist. Let's hold the individual accountable and not make blanket statements on whole groups of people. Governor there looks to have a lot of explaining to do.

Wonder which he is? Bahaha has

Hey CNN, going to update your article? There's another photo going around. During the Kavanaugh hearings, you demanded to know what 'Devil's Triangle' was (a drinking game BTW), so will you ask Ralph Northam why he was nicknamed 'Goose Coonman'? I won't be holding my breath.

Is Eastern Virginia Medical school still active? They should be held partially responsible for printing it

But does he like beer? If so, he needs to resign due to Democrat precedent.

35 years ago in Virginia. Sounds about right. Methinks he’s evolved considerably since then as have many. At least his current actions speak better of him, not like Steve King.

If he were a Republican they would be picketing for him to resign, but NO!

This must really hurt you guys. Well, Old Yeller is rabid now, I know he’s your dog an you love him, but you know what you must do now. Don’t you?

julianzelizer It’s not clear to me. Are they saying Northam is one of those two?

Question for : Why does this tweet have a picture of RalphNortham's face in the thumbnail, rather than the Klan yearbook photo, like EVERY OTHER NEWS OUTLET did? Don't want to show the picture, CNN

😐🙇‍♀️🤦‍♀️😒

Racist .!!!

How did miss this when he was running for Governor? To much Russia?

Tweet.

It’s amazing how Republicans are so beside themselves when they defend racists all the time. I hope the guy resigns, but the hypocrisy is amazing. GOPhypocrites

Took you awhile; but welcome to the party. Apparently, when breaking bad news pertains to a lefty, CNN is diligent and careful in its reporting.

When are you going to report on the story ON AIR or put in on your ticker? InstantKarma RalphNortham ByeFelicia

IT'S HIS PAGE IN THE YEARBOOK. Even when you are telling the story you are still trying to protect him because he's a Democrat. IT'S HIS PAGE!!!

Just in case the guy in black face didn’t make the point...

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE save VA from this Socialist Terrorist!

Run him out on a rail 👎

He’s gotta go. Later, clown!!

One of them in the photo, either the blackface of the KKK outfit is Northrup. What will you do to avoid the obvious? What narrative will you create? FakeNews

It was a costume of a KKK and a black man. Meant to be humorous and many moons ago. I'm a republican but ffs, you guys make something out of nothing.

He is a Democrat, It's ok. Double standards are ok when you are on the left.

Wow... Nothing else to say here.

His parties roots .......

He should resign immediately.

True Democrats. LoL

Another one about to bite the dust

I just want to Trigger! Blur eyes and everything.

If Ralph northam isn't in the picture, what's the big deal? But if he IS in the picture...

Why does this even matter? According to Ellen Page we only have a few years left of existence

Well, no surprise ... liberals created this hate group.

Bravo for reporting, albeit a bit more obvious. But wait for it....3...2...1..”it’s nothing more than a youthful indiscretion”.

Toast! RalphNortham

Isn't he the one who supports Baby killing? ....maybe only certain babies

😑 rather sanitized headline there Dont handle Ralph with kid gloves... Place him in a corner Where he can be made comfortable While his career self aborts 😐 AbortionIsNotHealthcare DefundPlannedParenthood RalphNorthamBabyKKKiller RalphBreakstheInternet

RalphNortham I’ll give you 5 seconds head start before the people chase your ass out of that office 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Is it hard to find politicians who aren't racist? Common. We can do better. BTW, no Democrats have had as much racist BS. Seems Republicans hold that trophy and aren't letting it go...

Karma

You do realize he's a Democrat, right

Ok, I think he’s in the hood...

Another democrat bites the dust.

He will tell you that moonshine made him do it...Such a mediocre mind.

HYPOCRITES! Why would the Democrats not speak out against Virginia Governor? They never give a Republican or President Trump the benefit of doubt, the DEMS have been lying about President Trump for over 2 yrs.( daily )and here's a picture , THE DEMS SAY NOTHING! WHO's RACIST?

Every generation leaves behind a legacy. What that legacy will be is determined by the people of that generation. What legacy do you want to leave behind? - Congressman John Lewis

WOW CNN IS REPORTING THIS, he must be in trouble.

Republicans pounce...

How many years back do you plan to go on his Twitter feed? Then report the signs were all along?

So was GovernorVA the blackface or in the KKK hood or both? What a horrible way to start Black History Month in Virginia.

Its so cute...says the liberal media

👀

He's almost as racist as CNN

Come on folks, please treat paediatrician .GovernorVA like he'd treat a little newborn baby. Let's make .RalphNortham 'comfortable' while we go away for a quiet chat and a cup of tea to decide how and when he should be eliminated. The evil bastard.

Republicans better man up and treat this exactly the same way it would be treated by media/dems if it was a republican governor

Because the post pic does not lead with it, here it is so you don't have to click the article.

I am more disgusted with his stance on abortion today than his college yearbook photos 30 years ago...

One would think the lead in to this would be a PHOTO of the yearbook page.. but that would be bad for a Democrat right Let’s see if this is your only article to hopefully be buried soon. If it was a Republican it would have 30 posts by now!!

NorthamResign

Ok libs, decision time, you going back the racist even though he’s the abortion doc of your dreams or nah?

And on the first day of black history month That's 3 strikes, he's out

Hey ...your guy is going down..any final thoughts before your very own axe swings onto his neck? Nevermind -allow me: Ahhhhh-hahahahahahhhHhHahahahahahahahahahHhahahHhHhHahahaha!!!

TAKE HIM DOWN. REPUBLICANS ARE THE RACISTS.

The classic 6pm Friday newsdump

Now, if he were a Republican, the headline wouldn't be so bland and boring 😂

HFS, cnn DID report it

And he is a doctor?

Gotta call it out where you see it. Dem, GOP, wherever. Shame on you, Governor.

Why put his photo on tweet, not his yearbook photos?

Why is anyone shocked? The Democrats started the KKK that is their people.

was it him? if not, what's the big deal?

Pay up Gub!!!!$$$$ A cool million will absolve u.
