You know, Fox News, or as your grandparents call it the Real News, and to be frank often this show is critical of Fox only because they are terrible, sometimes shockingly terrible.
As you can see in this piece – as is the case in every piece whether it be from the Republican Fox News channel, the Republican floor of congress, talk radio, or the GOP Republican presidential candidates – the GOP does everything it can to reach out to African Americans and Hispanics to slap their face. Oh and any Muslims who are brave enough to go outside anymore.
But it is not racism, bigotry, nativism or anything of the sort, in fact anyone even trying to imply such a thing means they are the racist. So if not racism what is this constant battering of Blacks and Hispanics called. Hmm…. Republicanism I guess. The GOP must have some number crunchers telling them that the demographics do not matter, at least in this next election cycle anyway.
Last night I saw a talking head for the first time say something that I had never heard said before other than from my own hand. That the first thing that comes to mind regarding a person is race and sex. Here it is from my hand 20 years ago.
There are three people on a corner. A woman, a white man and a black man. You are at a window seat in a restaurant with a friend. One of the three strangers on the corner waves at you and you wave back. Your friend, missing the originating wave, asks which one you are waving at. Conservatives can play around with all the semantic drivel they can muster, but they can’t get around what any of the three answers are going to be. The white guy. The black guy. The woman.
We hear a lot about the failure of MSNBC and how it is no less biased than Fox News. Well other than conservative Joe Scarborough having his own three hour show on MSNBC with FOX HAVING no liberal with a show on FOX NEWS, it can be argued within reason.
But the bias thing aside, MSNBC does not run top down from Roger AiIes and the GOP, and if they make a mistake they correct it. WIth MSNBC you get the truth, which is often dull an boring.
Fox News has about 10 times the audience and talk radio about 100 times the audience as the liberal side of things. Why? Race, Religion, and age. The whole package of conservative media is driven by hate and stupid. It is there to see all the time. Read any comment area on any political website to find the truth in that. Let be tell you… Wowzer. With the ones waving their guns around full of the most hate.
