Whatever happened to the Fox guy who said to "hose down" a black guest
Someone posted the quote earlier this week. Can't remember the name of the commentator, but the guest on his show was black and he said something the host didn't like and the host said "Somebody needs to hose you down"....

Did the guy ever apologize?? Or was this just swept under the rug like every other atrocity on Fox???

2. So where is the outrage??
I thought this would go mainstream. So it's okay to use racial phrases now?

I guess Fox can get away with anything now.

3. That was the entire point of the whole "PC" frame by the Reichwingers
They want to use racial epithets with impunity.

4. FAUX supports Tom DeLay
DeLay and FAUX News are unconquerable.......

Brit Hume has more guts than a cock-a-roach seeing daylight for the first time.

5. Juan Williams was not a guest, but a weekly commentator/panelist
on the show. I don't know why he puts up with the abuse other than the paycheck.

If you pay someone enough they will be your "house nigger." No offense to my African brothers and sisters.
