I guess we know exactly what he was thinking, eh? Jessie Jackson, of all people, should know that every person at Fox is hostile to him… hell, I bet every brick making up the building was hostile to him. Of course they had a mic hot. He should have known better. Video, including the actual statement he made, repeated several times. Text, with apologies and the statement from Obama’s campaign.
Also, here is a good article on all of this.
We like the way different news organizations handled this. FOx apparently played it. Others tipitoed around the word for “nuts”. Wasn’t that one of Carlson’s 7 words?
Carlin. George Carlin. And no, “nuts” is not one of the seven words. Seriously, David, you have the Internet…
I have long thought Jackson to be a racist, someone who needs racism in order to justify his existence. He deliberately invents racial controversy and works to divide whites from blacks. In this regard, Obama is a direct threat to him, so it’s no wonder he hates the guy.
Carlson?! An outrage.
Sorry, It is the late George Carlin I was referring to.. The great. I must have been dozing. Someone on the snews said George must be watching and laughing at the prospect of news organizations being tongue tied around a word. I thought the vulgar guys talk of Jackson is really contrasting with Obama’s statesmen rhetoric. I’m embarrassed again by Jackson. Nothing I haven’t heard on the golf course (minus the race implications). But, I bet it plays to some types in the media as more than crude. Jackson and B.Clinton are a bunch of womanizers. So let them get what they deserve. I must be Carlson–
