African-American Fox News staffers find it very difficult to work at the network, former president of the National Association of Black Journalists Bob Butler told TheWrap on Thursday.
Ive talked to some folks who work there and its very difficult, especially when you have all the hit pieces that are done on Obama, Butler said.
His comments come as Rupert Murdoch continues to face criticism over a controversial tweet on Wednesday that insinuated President Obama isnt a real black president. Murdoch apologized on Thursday.

I smell B@LL$H!T
They are always free to leave.
So if you’re “black” you have to have the Halfrican’s back?
They can go work Obama’s mouthpieces at MSNBC
Yahoo News is like reading Pravda in the 1960’s.
Juan Williams keeps coming back for more.....
They are really oblivious.
Watch out, FOX may soon have a Vester Flanagan problem.Seems to be a trend in the lefty media. Remember the NYTimes piece a month ago about the horribly horribly overstressed employees over at Amazon?
If they feel compelled to defend Obama, they shouldn't be working for ANY media organization, whether it be Fox or anyone else.
Defenders of Obama should be working for Obama, or any one of his puppet organization. It has nothing to do with race: it's about objectivity.
It seems like tribalism is more strongly ingrained than we would like to think.
Dear NABJ, it’s not about being black, it’s about covering the NEWS. And opinion shows get to have an opinion.
Racist pap.
I am sure he gets all wee weed up when the media goes after Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice, Allen West, Mia Love....
Ive talked to some folks who work there and its very difficult, especially when you have all the hit pieces that are done on Obama, Butler said.
Probably not as difficult as it was for white folk to work at Black Entertainment Television (BET) during the Bush administration.
“I smell B@LL$H!T”
A big steaming stinking pile!
Oh, this victimization mentality is ridiculous. So bad, is it? Has someone sued Fox?
Think of how tough it is to be a Bible believing Christian of any race in: a public school, a government job, a factory, a private foundation, walking down the street, etc.
Do you think it is THAT objective?
Somebody post the tiny violin....
MSNBC probably has openings....
