1. FOX: "It's OK!"
"Ken Blackwell swears up and down that black people LIKE being called Negroes by white folks!"

3. I refuse to listen to it but I think that the words "fox the media whore"
would fit into that melody very well.

21. Agreed. Obama's administration need's to take action against this
To let it go unpunished will only make things worse.

23. And I seem to recall that the least little
criticism of * was met with cries of "You're not patriotic! Respect your president and his office *even* if you don't like him!" Interesting how that only seems to apply when the president is someone the right-wingers approve of, isn't it? Let's just all shove it down their throats how disrespectful they are! Turn-about is fair play! Frigging racists make me sick!

11. limbaugh has 600 stations, 30 avg per state- that makes it OK
if it's OK coming out of the largest AM talk stations in every state what's wrong with it on fox?

the reason fox feels that its acceptable for them is that non racists everywhere either had no clue or didn't care that their biggest local talk stations have been blasting it all over the country for months. most of fox's core audience goes there to get reinforcement for their daily talk radio experience- they couldn't do this shit and get away with it if reagan hadn't killed the Fairness DOctrine 20 years ago.

18. That can't happen because they have no shame.
Besides, these types of issues are NOT ISSUES TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. By extension, they are not issues to Fox, which is the propaganda wing to this administration and the party itself. It is like an example where somebody stands up at a KKK rally and tells a joke that starts with "A nigger walks into a bar.....". You would not expect anybody to be shocked, in fact the entire room would probably laugh hysterically and tell that joke to all of their friends. You would not expect anybody in that rally to be shocked that such a joke is being told. So perhaps the Republican part is not the same as the KKK, but using the same like of reasoning, you should not expect anybody who watches Fox or supports the Republican party to be shocked. You should expect quite the opposite.

Related question. If you did a survey of people in the KKK that watch the news and asked them what news station they watch, What percentage do you think would answer FOX?

13. as babylonsister says, it's on the bottom of the screen - it's outrageous!
it could say a host of negative bigoted comments based on whoever the Democratic president-elect was, 'the magic homo' if he/she were gay, and so on, and to see 'the magic negro' scroll across the screen on a very joyous occasion just says how deplorable and pathetic these Fox people are - they literally climbed out from under a rock.

14. Faux is for the most ignorant gullible low IQ faction of our population
-the RW GOP base, for taxing and recruiting.

I am not sure how they will keep this up with this new administration, President Obama does not recognize FoxNews!!! :popcorn:

19. One day when I happened to be driving
I turned on Limbaugh. I never listen to Limbaugh unless I am driving. Anyway he was whining and whining about how restricted his speech was. He whined on and on about how "politically correctness" forced him into a narrow description of people. What he was actually saying was that he wanted to feel free to call names, bad names, unacceptable names. Can imagine the words he would use without the barriers of basic decency? In my mind Politically correct is just another term for courtesy or basic decency.

the environment, the economy, preserving, protecting, and defending the Constitution of the United States, and international order and goodwill, but is hoping for a good job nonetheless. :P
