Anyone see this?

Post by Kaldaur »

Here is a clip of a Fox News Contributor calling for Obama's assassination.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjYpkvcm ... re=related

And then this nice little clip of a caption labeling Michelle Obama as "Obama's Baby Mama."

Ahh, Fox. How cute you are in your rabid throes of racism.

What's so wrong with them using the term his people coined for his wife?

Yeah, I'm not much for double standards. If it's ok for them to say it, it's ok for anyone to say it, period - there is no valid argument to counter this imo.

Maybe the better questions are: Do you really expect unbiased news nowadays? Is biased news only ok when it's someone you agree with making the comment?

Dude, who is "them?" Some black people say "baby mama," some white people say "baby mama." I bet you that Barack doesn't refer to his wife as his 'baby mama,' and I bet that none of his friends do either.

Fox must have let the interns run things as people take their summer holidays.

When did I say he was? However I think that even mentioning (let alone being offended) by someone you know doesn't like him saying that is a completely retarded waste of time and is most certainly not current events worthy.

This wasn't some retard on the side of the road "saying that". It was the "fair and balanced" news media.

Again, I don't live in a world where shit is fair.

I don't know where you got that definition (lol), but that's most certainly not the only context it's used in. Not sure what point you're trying to prove.

I don't support what was said in clip one or the writing at the bottom of the screen in clip two.

The host in the first clip should be fired or suspended.

Who was that lady? She needs to be beaten.

Now that reaction is bullshit. It happened. Maybe they don't have that woman on again. That is a more reasonable response.

Go fuck yourself.

Some nappy headed hos got Imus fired, and a caller to a radio station got a couple of DJs suspended.

This guy deserves the same fucking treatment, and that bitch needs to be beaten.

It's not necessarily the woman that scares me. I know there are idiots out there, idiots who frequently have an open mic night on Fox whenever they want. It's the fact that some members of Fox's demographic might start to take these threats seriously. It's bad enough that Obama had to have Secret Service before the other candidates; now people on Fox News are calling for his assassination. By not doing anything in response, Fox is basically condoning the attitudes and platform of that speaker. As a correspondent for the network, that woman is representing that company, and what she says on their station directly speaks for their views. If they wanted to nip this in the bud, they would have made an announcement about it right from the start. They asked her to apologize a few days later at the end of another of her segments where she had already been talking about politics. It was a fucking afterthought, an, "Oh, and by the way," Columbo moment.
If she had said that about President Bush, she would have been shipped off to fucking Guantanamo Bay. It's vulgar and sickening.
