FoxNews Host Asks Nicaraguan if she 'Grew Up On Tacos'



Brian Kilmeade sticks his ignorance front and center in the spotlight when he assumes on-air that someone of latino heritage must've necessarily grown up eating tacos and should be an expert at making them. The poor girl can barely sneak gracefully out of his stupidly aimed question without embarrassing the idiot. (much to her credit, she doesn't dwell on it).

Steve Dooophy states matter-of-factly that she is actually Colombian, and has to be corrected.

They are both idiots. Makes you wonder if these two have ever walked around in the real world outside of FoxNews studios. Brain-dead. Literally and spiritually.

It is no wonder that latinos by and large are not buying the GOP rhetoric that they want an open, bigger tent. From this exchange, the only reason they'd obviously be inviting in any latinos would be to serve tacos.

Nice Fox News.... really, really nice.

Just to look attractive, and have right wing ideology. (Like as if those go together some how.)

On other channels, I'd expect the host to be suspended or fired.

But this is Faux News. Nothing will happen.
