MSNBC's Cross Slams ESPN's Sage Steele as a 'Stepin Fetchit Minstrel Show'

MSNBC's Tiffany Cross is a self-appointed "keeper of the [African-American] culture" and thus someone in a position to decide who is — and is not — an authentic "Black voice." Back in reality, one could deem her a racist for deciding whether fellow Black people are truly Black or instead treasonous to their race.

Saturday morning on her show The Cross Connection, her themes were ones of bitterness and jealousy. Cross dismissed the Blackness of people like Sage Steele, Van Jones, and Carlos Watson because they get financial support from wealthy whites and thus "have that gift of making white people feel comfortable."

This black MSNBC host had a failed business, and now is bitter that others can attract investments from whites. Pathetic.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

We Southerners call it ‘step ‘n’ fitch it’ service.

Not stepinfitch. Just saying. I’ve been there, because I was a lowly office worker. It goes all ways.

I might be stand corrected, if you’re nice about it.

Gropin' Joe was actually correct?

This woman is bitter.

[EEGator]

Nothing is more deserving of my attention than two black chicks arguing and being catty bitches.

[Libloather]

BTW, is Hussein really bi?

[hoe_cake]

This woman, who every she is, is instigating more racial strife. Of course, WE know this. I am disgusted. Maybe I should look up her name.

BTW, whatever your name is, your tie and shirt are eschew. Bitch.

[Old Yeller]

Black folk ain’t spose ta think fo demselfs.

[Skywise]

And she does… NOT… get paid by wealthy whites to spread her hate?

“Tiffany” might be compensating.

I take it Tiffany Cross doesn’t like Wayne Brady much?

[EEGator]

"It's Wayne Brady Son!"

[Rurudyne]

It was funny because it was against typecasting. He really does make Bryant Gumbel look like Malcom X.

[EEGator]

It was Mooney...
