Maher Panel Rips Fox’s ‘Concern-Trolling’ On Black Crime, Jay Z Battles Barney Over Stop-And-Frisk



VIDEO here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/maher-rips-foxs-%E2%80%98concern-trolling%E2%80%99-on-black-crime-jay-z-battles-barney-frank%C2%A0over-stop-and-frisk/

Bill Maher found it very strange that Republicans are all of a sudden so concerned about black-on-black crime and violence in Chicago. He hit Fox News in particular for carrying this talking point, which Business Insider’s Josh Barro described as “concern-trolling” from the right. The discussion then turned to police actions in black communities, and Barney Frank clashed with artist Jay Z over whether black communities need or want more police presence.

Frank was for funding more police, but Jay-Z mentioned we need more jobs to get people off public housing. Frank sounded kind of right wing oddly.....
