What exactly did Jackson say?

[Hepburn]

I have been gone and have been busy for the last few days. I caught a bit on the news about Jackson and the open mic problem. However, with all the censoring that was done, other than being informed by the media that it was very crude, I never figured out exactly what was said.

I would like to know...so someone please tell me, OK? TIA...:hi:

1. Rough quote

Barack is no friend to blacks.
I would like to cut off Barack's nuts because he talks down to blacks.

"Obama.... he's been talking down to black people.... I'd like to cut his nuts off".

7. Thanks to all for the info and the links, etc.

Ya know...someone with as much life and political experience as the Rev. Jackson should know to STFU around any mic no matter what he thinks the status is.

8. Jackson is a foolish man for even saying anything in a studio much less Fox.

The issue is not "hot mike" which would indicate someone "overheard" the conversation, but that it was recorded and not by just audio but video also. It is evident that he should have watched his words the moment he stepped in the studio.

I used to work at several tv stations a long time ago, every person knew not to curse or say bad things about the bosses even when the "On-AIR" light was off, because a mike may be set to preview not air..

STUPID...

9. I gotta go with you on this one...

...especially under the circumstances that Faux Snooze was involved. It is just amazing to me that Jackson would not figure that if anywhere, this was at the top of the list of places to NEVER say anything questionable.
