Now Fox News Commenters Are Spewing Racist Hatred at Whitney's Daughter

[pokerfan]

is wrong with these people? Watching too much Fox Snooze?

Yes, they’re at it again. In the Fox News article about Whitney Houston’s daughter, we see the Fox News audience spewing the same kind of nauseating racial hatred they directed at Whitney: Concerns for Whitney Houston’s Daughter Mount After Mom’s Death | Fox News.

1. Alcoholism and drug addiction

are just as much of a disease as cancer. Would they be berating a celeb who died of cancer? Of course not.

[digonswine]

2. Sure they would-

as long as it is a black celeb. This has nothing to do with the nature of the disease.

And--THEY GET TO VOTE!

3. Sad to say your are probably right. They would blame the cancer on their eating habits or

smoking habits or just being in the habit of being black. That is enough for racists. I suggest not to go over to those sites because they work us up and I think that is just what they want. The best way we all can support freedom for ALL is by voting. Check now to make sure everything is in order when it is time.

4. there is clear correlation

but I wonder about the cause and effect relationship. Does Fox News turn people racist or are racists drawn to Fox News?

[olegramps]

5. I am afraid its is both.

[southernyankeebelle]

6. Fox News marriage to Republican right = racists. What do you think? It is a marriage made in

hell.

[digonswine]

9. I will check-

considering I now live in a voter ID state-WI

[southernyankeebelle]

11. Yes, already checked in my area here in Tn. She said we could use our drivers license or

our military ID cards. We have early voting starting tommorrow. Go to find out in your area then spread the word. Good luck

[HockeyMom]

7. I am sorry, you are right

I was thinking about her problems and not the fact that she was a black woman. I am sorry I tend to think of people for who they are rather that their skin color. I didn't think of Whitney as a black celeb, but just a celeb. Sorry. Now I can see your point.

[southernyankeebelle]

12. Sad isn't it. When I hear or see Whitney I never thought of color. She truly has a gift from god.

She will be missed terribly.

8. To be clear, when you say "commenters" you mean "audience."

And the wingnuts at "little green footballs" are opposed to this? That's the shock, right there...this was the guy who stuck it to Dan Rather.

I guess the guy running that blog has had a slight change of heart--if Wikipedia is right on this score...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Green_Footballs

LGF was one of four sources, along with the Power Line and Allahpundit blogs and the Free Republic discussion forum, who conducted the initial investigation of Dan Rather's assertions on 60 Minutes that the Killian documents were genuine.

[edit]Charitable contributions
Little Green Footballs supporters have helped raise thousands of dollars for Spirit of America's "Friends of Iraq Blogger Challenge".[15][16] Supporters also donate pizzas for IDF soldiers.[17] In the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina several registered users also offered their direct services donating and transporting goods to the hardest hit, inviting contributions from other readers.[18] Johnson also posted a number of links to charitable efforts [19][20] and thanked his readers for their response.[21]

[edit]Pajamas Media
Main article: Pajamas Media
In late 2005 Johnson, along with blogger and author Roger L. Simon launched a news site called Pajamas Media (briefly called Open Source Media) featuring mostly conservative and libertarian bloggers and journalists (e.g., Michelle Malkin, Glenn Reynolds, Michael Barone, Tammy Bruce, John Podhoretz, Michael Ledeen, Cathy Seipp) with some liberal participants (e.g., David Corn, Marc Cooper). The name refers to Jonathan Klein's comment about bloggers working in their pajamas.

As of 15 September 2009, Johnson has removed all links to Pajamas Media sites [22] from Little Green Footballs.

13. I guess, It's a Fox News blog

I don't normally think of a blog as having an audience so much as it has readers, but I guess audience = comment.

[MADem]

21. Well, a Fox "commenter" could be that Shepherd Smith guy or Dildo Really or

any of the crazies they have on camera. When I first read that, I thought "No--they haven't gone that far over the line!"

I would not be surprised if some of them think that way, but they're not saying it out loud.

[pokerfan]

23. I would call a talking head a commentator

but I can see the confusion.

[Great Caesars Ghost]

10. Little Green Footballs???!!!???

Isn't that a right wing site, or did something change?

[KamaAina]

16. LGF discovered sanity after a massive flamewar with the one and only Pam Geller

whose continuous spew of vile hatred proved too much even for Charles Johnson.

[pokerfan]

24. Yeah, he mentions Pamela

in his Why I Parted Ways With The Right blog entry: http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/35243_Why_I_Parted_Ways_With_The_Right

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

17. I read a statement a while back from the site's owner that apparently he got so

disgusted with the 'Pukes that he turned on them. I don't know where he stands politically. I don't recall details. Perhaps someone can refresh my memory.

[waddirum]

22. the blog owner seems to have had an honest change of heart

Check out the blog. He posts almost entirely about bat-shit insane republicans and is 100% in support of Obama.

[HockeyMom]

14. We have Whitney's music,

just like Michael's, and that is their gift to the world. We must remember them as they were in their prime for their music. I am sure they would want us to.

[Lilyeye]

15. Such sick disgusting hatred on display. Perhaps these assholes need to know what it feels like.

[KamaAina]

18. Much, much more here

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002305927

I particularly like how the bedsheet racists disguise their many, many N-bombs (at Whitney Houston?! Srsly?) by spelling them with q's instead of g's. Not bad for people who are dumb enough to drown in the rain.

[libodem]

19. That was awful

I can't believe what I just read. Faux should be ashamed to let any of that stand. It's truely shocking. Be forewarned about clicking that link.

Forewarned is for-armed.
