Fox 'Fair and Balanced'? My ass! That's just a catchy jingo for the stupid sheep of the herd.
Your comment covers race and the media in this chart which would also apply to, as Rush would say, 'Magic Negroes.'

Fox News contributor Jehmu Greene, a black feminist, says on her Twitter page that “love can build a bridge.” But racism, not love, was on display last Thursday when she called conservative Tucker Carlson a “bow-tying white boy.”
Greene, a Democratic Party operative who was the national director of Project Vote, a group with close ties to the corrupt ACORN organization, has not offered a public apology. There is no indication that her financial relationship with Fox News has suffered as a result of the racial outburst.
“Jehmu apologized to Tucker by phone after the segment,” Irena Briganti, Group Senior Vice President at FOX News Channel & FOX Business Network, tells Accuracy in Media.
This is apparently the end of the matter for Fox News.
Robert Lifson of American Thinker pointed out that if Tucker Carlson had ever called Louis Farrakhan “a bow-tying black boy,” he would be out of a job.
What’s more, Greene said on the air that she had not done anything wrong.
“Hey, hey, hey,” reacted Carlson, at the slur. “You can’t, wait. Whoa, whoa, whoa…You can use name calling all you like, but you’re ignoring the truth.”
“I didn’t call you a name,” replied Greene.
So calling somebody a “white boy” is acceptable to Greene.
As a Fox News Contributor, Greene is on the Fox News payroll and is paid to be a regular commentator on different programs.
SNIP
AIM had asked Fox News spokesperson Irena Briganti if Greene would be fired for making the racist remark. That is when Briganti informed us about the private apology, which is apparently supposed to suffice.

It's appalling that this cleaned up, spiffed up, dirty radical lib operative is welcome at FNC .. and as I told them, scads are leaving Fox in droves. Et ut, Prince Al Waleed?
So I am guessing she wouldn’t have a problem if someone called her a ‘nappy headed ho’?
Or would that be the pot calling the kettle...
black?
Fire her.
Or is Fox in BO’s pocket because of the wiretapping scandal overseas? Sure would seem so.
Jemuh never strays from the democrat/liberal talking points no matter what the facts are. She’s like a broken record.
Good for Fox!! It is time that speech be allowed to be Free Speech. It is time that stupid comments by one or more persons be allowed - because it is good for our society to see what real people think and say in their unguarded moments - without a teleprompter. If someone say’s “look at that little _____ run.” an entire career should not be runined. Letting people speak is the whole point of our constitution.
Yup.

I’ve solved most of my BP problems by not watching anything but old movies on TV.
I get my news from FR—and there’s not much I’ve missed out on.......
“On another Fox News show Jehmu Greene wore an orange dress and sat in the “leg chair”. She looked like the Great Pumkin.”
So I guess you could say she’s Jehmoooo!
She has always been an obnoxious, ignorant person who just keeps talking and talking over everyone else. They have tried to clean her up and make her look more presentable, but she is still an arrogant liberal with no manners.
How classless!
She cannot help it.
That’s all I can say.Censored.
That’s one scary lookin’ example of humanity.
Carlson could have had great sport with her and her fake private apology.
“And I apologize about what I said about you.”
“What did you say about me!?!”
“Oh, it’s just best that I don’t say. I’m sure the people I said that to won’t tell anyone else about it.”
“What did you call me???”
“Oh, I’m sure nobody would believe that about you. So it’s best that I not say. In any event, I accept your apology and I hope you accept mine. Have a nice day. ‘Bye-eee.”
Well, of course love can build a bridge! Unless you a dumb white cracka-—then just get outta my face.
Same here. News breaks here before most other sources. And since I get such good use from FR, I don't mind paying for it.
According to Wikipedia Greene is the daughter of Liberian immigrants. Is that legal or illegal?
LOL!! Good one!
She is not a black feminist. She is other things, many of them.
“I voted a long time ago, with no more viewing of Fox. As a matter of fact I do not get my news from TV at all, except at the local level.”
I hear you; the local news is important in terms of how to get around/traffic reports, weather, crime, etc.. Fox can just treat you to Al Sharton being kowtowed to and addressed as “reverend”. Fox is a center-left version of far-left CNN/MSNBC.
