Shame on Fox 2 gatekeepers for airing racist comments. To have them on the internet is understandable, however it is another thing to have to explain to small children why somone would refer to black people as a moral animals. We have to block our children from looking at garbage on tv constantly. Who would have thought I would have to shield her from comments made on the morning news. Thanks Alot:)

Channel Five seems to be more mature and responsible in their report practices...gatekeepers change the channel and take some notes. I am going to take a break from 2 for a while. I will see you later maybe I will return when you put my favorite personality , Tim Ezell on the news desk. PEACE

Unity to be real must stand the severest strain without breaking.

--Mahatma Gandhi

 

 Indeed, this horrible atrocity has occurred in our beloved community. Let us not succumb to the tension that this occurrence has caused and break the ties of unity, of friendship, of love, and of a sound-judgment. I was mortified when I sat down to watch Fox 2 this morning and listen while Shawn Lindsey read a racist blog on air. I had my 15-month daughter in my arms and my heart dropped. Is this the community where I am going to be raising my child. Who would stereo-type a race of people because of the insensitive remarks of  a few black people.  The comment said that maybe black people should be viewed as amoral animals. If that be the case an “amoral animal” changed the face of history by rallying for civil rights and speaking out about non-violence.  To the individual that made that racist blog…I will pray for you because it is obvious that you have no FAITH or education. I say this as I turn the other cheek and offer you the other to cheek to slap if you will

 

Kindest Regards,

Are you kidding? I keep my finger on the remote like a trigger to be able to change channels at ANY given second. There is WAY more that children shouldn't hear on the news than racists comments.

To be real honest when a group of people that claim to be African first and American second, Claim racism should that not be a form of terrorism? Or anarchy? AND if this same tragic event would have happened in the BLACK COMMUNITY with a white guy being the perp, what kind of response would that have received. This is America there is no censorship. I think a lot of things are racist.

THANK YOU Mike.........I can spot a racist in the same way I can spot one who farted. The one whom smelt it, dealt it. And Fame1913, you dealt it. And also I never heard that comment on FOX 2, so until I do hear it I won't believe it. Sure you didn't read into a comment?
