I don't see anyone minimizing these murders.

Well, it doesn't fit their narrative now does it?

No Booners, it's not a mass shooting, and there are 30,000 other gun deaths that this one can be lumped in with.

You're just making a fuss because all the Foxtards are saying that an illegal immigrant did it - as if getting rid of those would have a significant impact.

I think significant to the young women's family, as she would be alive if Obama took illegals and the problems they bring seriously.

As those nine black people in Charleston would be alive if there were not still ignorant racist redneck pricks across America cheering on that fucking Fox slag Kelly tearing into the blacks every day.

You know that deportations are at record levels under Obama right?

And you know that Boehner sat on a Bipartisan immigration bill that would have passed the house and included tougher border controls and tougher enforcement right?

If you are putting the blame on Fox News, as in they provoked that young man, you are beyond being an absolute idiot.
Can you show me even one incidence where Fox News has promoted racism?

Not a Boehner fan either. Obama has the authority to increase the man power on the borders, put pressure on sanctuary cities, and send illegals to jail, is he interested? No.

Your facts are weak, take a look at the statistics of illegals committing crimes. Don't confuse yourself as being intelligent.

"Facts" are facts. They are neither weak nor strong. Just real.

"Opinions" should not be put up as "facts". They are drawn conclusions from assembled facts. Whether those opinions can be said to truly be based on "facts" assembled to back them up is another matter.

You are quite delusional - you know that don't you?

Fuck me another one who doesn't see what's right in front of him.

Tune into any of Kelly's shows this week and tell me how many times she covers "poor innocent cop" stories about Baltimore, Ferguson or NY.

Or I'm guessing this week she'll be using the words "Mexican" and "Criminals" as many times as she can because she knows you Foxtards can only keep up with a few words every sentence.

So, even though in one case the cops were not charged, and the other, Baltimore, the cops were mostly black you can insert racism, you really are delusional.

Tony Robinson
Tamir Rice
Walter Scott
And the Freddie Gray cops were "mostly" black and white in equal numbers.

In every case Fox have looked for a reason to blame anyone but the killer cops.

Doesn't matter you still have black cops implicit in the alleged murder of a black person a non racist death.

You can call what you like, but what I am not is racist. I am assuming you have never seen black people on Fox News who who disagree with the likes of you about black trouble makers, are they racist as well.

Yes I am a coffin dodger, and will be for as many years as I can, not looking forward to being put in one.

Fox News’ shocking racism effect: The alarming statistical relationships underneath conservative viewing habits



In the wake of Dylann Storm Roof’s horrifying act of terrorism in South Carolina, many have pointed to the negative influence of conservative media in incubating right-wing extremism. Bill Maher, for example criticized outlets such as Fox News, The Drudge Report and The Daily Caller for presenting a “twisted view,” in which Black people were taking over the country. These criticisms are not new: Fox News has for years come under criticism for its racially-charged coverage. Just recently, in January of last year, Isaac Chotiner wrote that Fox News creates segments “meant to scare its white audience into believing that African Americans, or Muslims, are out to get them.” Meanwhile, Jon Stewart and Rachel Maddow have both criticized Fox News’s coverage of the Ferguson murder last year.

New data suggests that their criticisms may be correct.

Using 2012 American National Election Studies data to test whether Fox News viewers have distinct racial attitudes, it can be demonstrated that, indeed, these viewers are more likely to reject the reality of structural racism and to endorse negative stereotypes of Black people.
I examine three areas of racial opinion. The first questions in the data measure racial stereotyping in particular. These questions ask respondents to say whether they believe that Black people are “hard-working” or “lazy,” “intelligent” or “unintelligent” and whether they have “too much influence” or “too little influence” in politics. The second set of questions look at more structural issues. These questions ask respondents whether they agree or disagree with these statements:

Work Way: ‘Irish, Italians, Jewish and many other minorities overcame prejudice and worked their way up. Blacks should do the same without any special favors.’
Slavery: ‘Generations of slavery and discrimination have created conditions that make it difficult for blacks to work their way out of the lower class.’
Deserve: ‘Over the past few years, blacks have gotten less than they deserve.’
Try: ‘It’s really a matter of some people not trying hard enough; if blacks would only try harder they could be just as well off as whites.’
Discrimination: How much discrimination do Black people face?

And finally, I look at attitudes towards solutions: whether respondents support government aid to Blacks, think that the government should ensure fair jobs for Blacks. My analysis focuses only on non-Hispanic whites.
To begin, I examined only whites who identify as conservative, and compared the racial attitudes of those who watched Fox News regularly to those who did not. In addition, I examined specifically those who watched “The O’Reilly Factor,” the most popular Fox News show (there is obviously overlap here, about 67 percent of respondents who regularly watch Fox News also report regularly watching O’Reilly). On structural racial issues, I find a nearly 13 point difference on structural racial issues between white conservatives who do not watch Fox News with those who do, and 15 point difference between those who do not watch Fox News with those who watch “The O’Reilly Factor.”

The gaps on most questions are similar, but it’s worth noting that a stunning 92 percent of Fox News viewers and 94 percent of O’Reilly viewers agree “Irish, Italians, Jewish and many other minorities overcame prejudice and worked their way up. Blacks should do the same without any special favors.” Half of O’Reilly viewers say that there is little or no discrimination against Blacks today, compared with 45 percent of Fox News viewers and 40 percent of white conservatives who don’t watch Fox News.



On issues of interpersonal racism, I find that Fox News and O’Reilly factor viewers are more likely to say Black people are “Lazy,” but are only slightly more likely to say that Black people are unintelligent. However, white conservative Fox News viewers are nearly twice as likely to say that Black people have too much influence over politics. This question is not typically assumed to indicate racial stereotyping, but it should. In a recent study, political scientist Richard Fording and John M. Cotter of the FBI find, “the presence of black elected officials to be positively related to white hate group activity, even after controlling for the size of the nonwhite and Hispanic population, economic conditions, and other characteristics of the political environment.”




White respondents who watched Fox News are also far less likely to endorse government action to benefit Black people, saying that the government should not fair treatment in the workplace and that “Black people should help themselves.”



Obviously, there could be other factors at work here: Maybe people more predisposed to racist attitudes gravitate towards Fox News (though this is still an indictment of Fox News). White conservatives who watch Fox News tend have slightly lower incomes and less education than conservatives who don’t — this could help explain some of the effect. They are also older, though evidence suggests that young whites are no less likely to espouse racist attitudes than their parents. In addition, when I examined the racial attitudes of only white conservatives over 50, I still found large differences between Fox News viewers and non-Fox News viewers.
As the chart below shows, whether we compare all whites who watch Fox news vs. those who don’t, or vs. conservatives, or vs. Republicans, or vs. conservatives over 50, the result remains the same: those who watch Fox News are far more likely to endorse racial stereotypes and ignore the issue of structural racism. Those who watch “The O’Reilly Factor” are more likely to deny structural racism and oppose government action to help Blacks.



The Fox News effect is powerful: One study finds that Fox News boosted Republican vote share by 0.4 to 0.7 percentage points between 1996 and 2000. Numerous studies find that Fox News influences viewers perceptions on key issues. Many of these studies focus on issues related to race, such as the Ground Zero mosque and undocumented immigration. One study finds that, “the Fox News audience is indeed more favorable toward Bush, and has greater hostility toward his opposition, even when controlling for party identification.” They may also be promoting harmful and negative stereotypes about African-Americans, poisoning race relations in America. While it’s impossible to prove that Roof was influenced specifically by Fox News, it’s clear that white conservatives who watch Fox News are far less likely to accept the realities of structural racism than those who do not. They are also modestly more likely to accept harmful racial stereotypes about Black people. Particularly worryingly, they are far more likely to believe that Black people have too much influence over politics. What’s clear, above all else, is that right-wing media are partially responsible for the fraught racial tension in American politics.
