Blatant racism at Fox News.

Wednesday | June 18, 2008

I was just reading an article about Michelle Obama on IHT.com.

As I began to read through, I saw something that struck me as blatant and unadulterated racism.

Fox News called her “Obama’s baby mama,” a derogatory term for an unwed mother.

Now, granted…this isn’t the primary resource…and I don’t know what the context was…BUT…how in the hell is this not considered a racist comment. I mean, frreal!? This is supposed to be a news organization calling a married Harvard-educated attorney a “baby mama”. One can only assume that this is because she’s black. I feel pretty confident that they wouldn’t make that statement if it were Michelle Bush or Michelle Clinton.

I’m sorry…but that is FUCKED UP.

Why doesn’t Fox News stop being part of the fucking problem and start becoming part of the solution.

What a bunch of pricks. Fuck them.

Follow Up: I found the actual video on YouTube.
