Fox News Controversy

This morning on "Fox and Friends," Brian Kilmeade walked off the set after a dispute with his co-hosts Gretchen Carlson and Steve Doocy over Obama's "typical white person" statement. Kilmeade argued that the remark needed to be taken in context and eventually got so fed up with his co-hosts that he walked off set.
Then Chris Wallace came on the show and railed against "Fox and Friends" for "Obama-bashing."
Obama supporters and sympathizers are going to do their best to squelch any further discussion.

I am sure there must be recordings of both Brian and Chris Wallace's statements. If someone could link them, I would appreciate it. I don't know how.

I’m sorry I missed it. Can’t say they aren’t interesting.

Brian is an asshole. He must have pictures of Ailes in compromising positions.
He usually takes off on a guest for no reason.

Sorry I can’t help you.
I used to listen to Fox and Friends, but since the channel in general is more entertainment-oriented; I only watch Special Report now with Brit Hume.

I saw it, I thought it was amusing to see them bash Obama. I just switched the channel after Chris got all huffy.

Imagine if Clarence Thomas said about someone, “you know, he’s your typical white person.” He’d have to resign.

Obama Bashing on FOX? It's a wonder no one has walked off the CNN set for Obama Loving.

Only a typical white person would respond that way.

I watched it. Gretchen mentioned she was upset by Barack saying that his Granny was a typical white person. In this case I agreed with her. They mentioned this several times whenever the subject of the vaunted one, Barack came up.
Chris Wallace came on to do his weekly Friday ad for his Sunday show and started to chastise all of them for bashing Obama for two hours. It was nasty and ugly and uncomfortable. I didn’t see Brian walk off the set though.
As far as I was concerned, it didn’t bother me, if you watch pmsnbc, you listen to hours of Obama praise, like Chrissy having feelings up and down his legs over Obama.
I guess there are many out there that wish to take that speech Osama Obama made, and give him a free pass.

Re Kilmeade’s response, that was very “white” of him to make a fool out of himself instead of addressing the issues at hand.
By the way, who is this jerk?
To: kingattax
More like a lefty like his lear jet socialist dad.
