This is POLICY for NBC, not some fly by night commentator. Brian Williams should never have been named top dog at the news department. John Roberts (first VJ of the MuchMusic channel (Canadian alternative to MTV) and a very successful news anchor in Miami) would have been far preferable.
What a skank in a network of feminines (read Lester Holt) and public perverts (read Stephanie Gosk and Jenna Wolfe). And all on the far left.
Her comments would seem to be the very essence of racism, no?
People people, nothing to see here. Trust me, it’s OK for liberals to be racist! Move it along, nothing to see here.
Standing Headlines
1.”Bangladesh ferry capsizes”
2.”MSNBC host..... offered an apology to the .... family.”
“As black child born into large white Mormon family I feel familiarity w/ Romney family pic & never meant to suggest otherwise.”
No doubt, she was a product of rape that the family did not abort.(but the world may have been better off if it had)
This must be, what, the 42nd time this year that an MSNBC slug has apologized for saying something stupid?
If Sean Hannity, Stuart Varney or any conservative had said something like this about a liberal family, his career would be over no matter how much he apologized.
And to think that the same people always screaming about “Faux” News for some egregious offense that they cant ever seem to specify seem to never find the time to give us their critique on this network.
A tweet is one step...a phone call to apologize would have shown some real guts and been the right thing to do
Excuse me but other than taking a racist shot at a prominent Republican, why was the Romney Family Christmas Photo even included (nominated) for “Picture of the Year”?
There was intent to smear from the get-go. I don’t think a simple apology should be accepted. This was not off-the-cuff or an unguarded comment.
And we all know full well that had the baby not been in the picture, no matter the reason, the pond scum at MSLSD and elsewhere would have been screaming how racist Romney purposely excluded him.
Why is he the only boy not in blue? And on top of that he’s wearing pink.
Well Harris-Perry, if Black fathers (actually the term should be sperm donor, not father) took some responsibility for their offsprings, then it wouldn’t be necessary for a White family to adopt a black baby and give it the love and care it needs. Look at your own race before you denigrate the actions of another race you racist idiot.
CHILDREN OF POLITICIANS ARE OFF LIMITS. Oh, my mistake. Republican children can be targets. /sarc/
I swear, I can visualize a phone call being made from the White House over to MSNBC; “Can y’all make some sort of outrageous statement on tonight’s show? We need something to distract the sheeple from Obamacare and that whole Duck Dynasty thing kind of blew up in our face”.
Forget black and white! People are people. If you cannot see a person, they are just a person. People who make fun of a race are an abomination. It’s time to knock it off!
Do they mock deBlasio who has a black wife and family?
Classless people cannot be expected to behave well.
A seemingly sincere and insightful apology, absolutely.
It was so seemingly sincere, I have to wonder how some of that insightful sentimate did not bleed out during the panel hilarity. Did she have to choke it back?
Or, did she get in trouble with the boss and have to pull out a skillful apology pronto?
