Well, 4chan is in the news a bit. I gotta say this is a prime example of feeding the trolls. Just say something as offensive as possible on /pol/ and you might get your e-peen sucked by a journalist.
>On 4chan, an online message board credited with launching the alt-right, threads about the incident frequently turned anti-Semitic, with comments like, “One day our patience will come to an end and then we will grab these insolent Jews by their throats and stuff their lying mouths shut!” and “Should’ve stomped the Jewlet.”

Also, >credited with launching the alt-right
Sure, because neo-nazis weren't around before 4chan.

The alt-right was a catch-all term created to describe the growing number of disillusioned conservatives. People on reddit and YouTube latched onto the term and used it to promote themselves. While the group may share some of the sentiments of 4chan, /pol/ in particular, and I am sure that there is a mixing between the groups, it was never a 4chan thing.

Alt-right was created by Richard Spencer, a wealthy white supremacist who owns the blog "alternative right".
But of course /pol/ will be credited, which further calls for a "reform".
