Fox news has become extremely uncomfortable with the African American

temporary host on MSNBC. The host return an in your face format that calls out their hypocrisy in a manner to which they are not accustomed. Rachel, Ed and O'Donnel do the same thing but they have to exercise some restraint. Sharpton's snap at Buchanan is something unheard of for MSNBC's scared COW. O'reilly is now twitching about something said about him. Again, not a new call out on Fox, but one that has them irritated because they can come close but don't dare use the N word.

1. Then MSNBC needs to promote his show and constantly use him as a contributor.

MSNBC Needs to grow a larger pair and go for the jugular.

2. This country and the media have been dancing around the issue for over two years now.

At least from the black mans perspective (ironically coming from a white guy). Never a problem with white men (read Pat Buchanon, Billo etc) using slurs and derogatory broad brushes.

Sharpton is the guy, imo, to call these guys out front and center, and start a dialogue. I wonder if msnbc has the stones for it? No, not really wondering. But it will be interesting to see who pulls the plug this time.
