White Fox Guest Calls Black Lives Matter Movement ‘A Fraud’

Fox News discussed a spike in violence in Chicago “fair and balanced” style: with three people making negative comments about African Americans.

The discussion, which occurred on Hannity, echoed one from the previous hour on The Kelly File. Just like in that segment, the only guests here were two known black-attackers.

Sheriff David Clarke, a regular Fox News guest, has accused President Obama of “kick(ing) white voters in the teeth” by showing sympathy for the Black Lives Matter movement. Clarke recently “analyzed” black crime on Fox by saying, “Modern liberalism celebrates black underachievement. It finds excuses for subhuman behavior and it blames other people for some flawed lifestyle choices - questionable at best - lifestyle choices made on behalf of many young black males, unfortunately.”

The other guest, Heather MacDonald, has not been on Fox so often. But Media Matters has this summary:

MacDonald has a history of racially inflammatory comments, including claiming that young African-American males have a “lack of self-discipline”; that it is “common sense that black students are more likely to be disruptive” than white students; and that black men possess a “lack of impulse control that results in ... mindless violence on the streets.”

MacDonald got right to blaming the Black Lives Matter movement and President Obama for the Chicago violence. And suggesting that African Americans shot and killed by the police deserved it."

When it's on in a waiting room I leave. I had a doctor once that had Fox on in his waiting room so I found a new doctor. No kidding.
