One thing that has always seemed odd about Fox News’s continual race-baiting: if you look at it strictly from a business angle, why would Fox risk alienating a large segment of their viewing audience by pushing all these “reverse racism” nontroversies?

Joe Conason asks if it’s time to reopen Breitbart’s ACORN fraud — and get the story right. Why, yes. Yes, it is.

Fox News has really opened the race-baiting spigots lately; they’ve been pushing the bounds of acceptable commentary little by little, until now it’s pretty damned obvious what they’re doing.

“For the first time in his life, Paterson is gonna be a massa.”
More of Rush Limbaugh’s patented sleazy race-baiting from his Wednesday radio show, as he says President Obama will use the Haitian disaster to boost his credibility with the ‘light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country’. Also in the same show, he argued against government aid to Haiti. Lovely. [Video] UPDATE at ...
For the first of today’s facepalm-inducing audio clips, we have Sean Hannity going Birther, claiming that wacko wingnut site World Net Daily is just doing “due diligence” by obsessing over Barack Obama’s birth certificate, and saying “Given his father’s birthplace, what’s wrong with asking if Obama has a legitimate birth ...

Here’s Rush Limbaugh in the Wall Street Journal, attempting to divert attention away from his numerous documented racist and race-baiting remarks: Rush Limbaugh: The Race Card, Football and Me.
