The Fox Attack on Black AmericaPosted on Apr 3, 2007
The Congressional Black Caucus has agreed to cosponsor two debates with Fox News, one for Democrats and the other for Republicans. But as Robert Greenwald and the folks at Fox Attacks demonstrate in this video, the network has a history of attacking black America. Disclaimer: This clip includes racist nonsense, skewed reporting and Bill O’Reilly. Watch it:

Fox news plays to the white conservative [racist] male. They believe in states rights [the real reason for the civil war to preserve slavery] against affirmation action [to keep and preserve white male supremacy] and against abortion [to keep white women from having abortions,to keep a white majority as well as keeping non white immigrants from entering this country and becoming citizens]. They cater to a audience of Hannity,Colter,Limbaugh in order to spew hate,bigoty and to divide. They also seek help from the religous bigots like Falwell.Robertson,and Bob Jones as if they have some type of moral authority. They now are using gays and lesbians as a new means to divide and conquer. These hate,war,and fear mongering folks won’t stop until the laws of this nation revert back to the early 1800’s.

In response to Ivy #62048:
Report thisIvy get a clue!! “Deal with it and stop creating problems.” Who the hell are you?? George Bush, Dick Cheney, A.Gonzales ?? That is the exact attitude that we in America need to lose. If one sees a problem or an injustice it is your civic duty to confront it. The real problem is that Americans like yourself have no real sense of civics anymore. You would just rather let someone else make costly decisions for you and then coalesce to them later. That is precisely how this country ended up in Iraq ,by blindly following the lead of a group that already believes you to be the easiest collective society to manipulate by well placed propaganda (ie..Fox News, CNN, MSNBC..). It’s okay to dissent, it’s okay to not agree with everyone: however, it is not right to just accept something and to get over it. Open your eyes and your mind.

“That until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned: That until there are no longer first-class and second class citizens of any nation; That until the color of a man’s skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes; That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race; That until that day, the dream of lasting peace and world citizenship and the rule of international morality will remain but a fleeting illusion, to be pursued but never attained.”

The FOX network is full of misleading doctrines, dangerous imitations and treacherous suggestions, and it is the duty of the people of America to erase these and forever terminate this network.

I mean you can take a bunch clips and string them together and make anyone look like they are racist, right? However if you look at the Managers and supervisors all way up to owner and stockholders for this company, i am sure you will see that a huge number of them are Black.
NOT!!!!!
Fox is trash Only one good place for News on T.V

Ha. This video is a joke. One could find just as many clips of left-leaning leaders making racial slurs. Plus, anytime you take someone’s statements out of context, you run the risk of looking like a fool yourself. I’m not saying I support Fox News or these statements, but this is an obvious political smear. Is the creator of this video agreeing with the sign that said “Don’t call 911. The Police won’t help you”? That’s simply not true. I’m led to believe that the creator does believe that sign. No wonder we have crime in America. Political extreme’s are not the answer.

This about sums it up. They don’t even have to be bashful about their simplistic, self-assured bigotry anymore. -Rigo

One may say these were only sound bites and out of context, but the little I have seen of Fox, it only contains sound bites
Report thisThe name Fox News is a joke, they should call it Fox Spanking the Donkey, instead of news!
Sadly some folks believe it is real news, even worse Bush is one of those folks.

Partisan media at it’s best. Imagine! A conservative news station (Fox) is being...[gasp]...racist. Racism may be rampant in some areas of the country, but I strongly doubt that it’s as wide spread as many black community leaders want everyone to believe. I’ve grown up in neighborhoods and schools where, being white, I was the recipient racial aggression. Some times, people, especially people who grow up with an unhealthy disrespect for the law, behave in ways that attract aggressive behavior from law enforcement. This does not mean that there’s a “cult” of racist police officers hell bent on subduing the black race. Assuming we should still use that archaic word (race). All this means is that communities need to stop inviting aggression into their lives. Dress like a “thug” and you’re going to be suspected of committing crimes! The dominant culture is “white”. Deal with it and stop creating problems.

I’m not a big fan of any American cable news network but Foxnews is disgraceful. To say that Foxnews has an axe to grind with Obama is an understatement. I watched the Outfoxed documentary by Greenwald and I must say he really showed Foxnews for what it is: Crap journalism. I still can’t get over that one of the topics of the Fox & Friends morning program was Capt. America being killed! News flash--he’s a fictional character!!

There’s absolutely no blacks or whites. We’re the whole world embraced by brotherhood.
