Way to lift up your people, dude.

Jamie Foxx doesn't think Fox News star Bill O'Reilly star is a bad guy.
The two got to know each other recently at a charity event, and Foxx explored both his impression of the pundit and Fox News' editorial process earlier this week with The Daily Beast.
In doing so, Foxx insinuated the conservative channel's coverage reflects an animosity toward people of color.
When it comes to Bill O’Reilly or Fox News, what people aren’t factoring in is that they have a huge audience and that’s how they make their money. It’s hard to do, but you sort of have to look beyond their job. I’ve seen Bill O’Reilly around and he isn’t a bad dude. It’s not like I’d want to hang out with him or whatever, but he’s playing a character. So I look at it like, “OK, man. You’re fooling your people and getting your check,” because these guys get a lot of money. If he doesn’t do that he doesn’t make news, and the only way they make news is by saying the most outlandish stuff that they can about minorities....
We live in a world that has two sides. And it’s unfortunate because Bill O’Reilly is a smart person and if Bill O’Reilly wanted to, he could do so much for bringing the gap closer. We live in a world where people are looking for role models on both sides—a

I will also not watch his new movie
This is the same racist ass that said after he made the movie Django Unchained said it was “Fun killing white people”
I have sworn off many celebrities already. Why would I give them my money when they just try to destroy me?
For example, Mr. Foxx? You seem very sure that Fox News and BOR say outrageous things about black folks all the time, so it should be easy for you to cite some examples.
What’s that? You don’t have any?
BOR isn’t even a conservative, for Pete’s sake.
It must be sad to walk through life with such a chip on one’s shoulder. It’s all about “the gap.”
Fox should sue for slander. They don’t say outlandish stuff about minorities. Relieve this dummy of some of his money.
Did I just say something outlandish about a minority?
Where’s the “not this shit again” guy?
Does he have Fox News and MSNBC mixed up again?
But then leftists are notoriously intolerant of speech they disagree with.
Keep Foxx in mind when considering attending the latest ‘Spider-Man’ movie...I understand that he may not like white conservatives, but he sure does love their money.
No examples, Jamie???? Your claims might have just a bit more credibility if you were to provide an example or two of them. Oh, you can’t?? What a surprise, NOT.
He’s not just an ordinary racist bigot, he’s a lying racist bigot.
What is really unfortunate is that a black man can make millions of dollars for essentially doing very little and still think of himself as a perpetual victim of whitey.
I noticed. I won’t pay a dime to see it.
Foxx is not alone.
If you go to many public schools and most universities, the history and society education, particularly at black-majority schools, is focused on RACE.
Certainly it involves the history of slavery and jim crow, but these are simply the basis for further notions of collective-guilt and collective victimhood. There is also a very strong notion that no one but blacks themselves are allowed to have valid opinions about the state of race relations.
Black celebrities and politicians will not abandon these ideas very soon.
Why is everybody always pickin on me!
Almost as “outlandish” as you Odingo “movie”, right Jamie. ROTFL! I didn’t waste my money.
I guess truth is outlandish, when you live in a land of lies.
Two of the first Marvel Comics I ever read were Amazing Spider-Man #3 and Fantastic Four #5. I will NOT be putting my money into the pockets of a racist like Foxx. (Two can play that game, liberals...)
