FOX'S JOHN GIBSON: GAS FACE AND A PINK SLIP
On Wednesday, a Fox News radio commentator made racist comments about the teen killer at a Cleveland high school, saying he presumed the shooter was African American until he learned the shooter killed himself. He went on to justify his twisted logic by - what else - stereotyping hip hop. "Hip-hoppers do not kill themselves," he said. "They walk away. Now, I didn't need to hear the kid was white with blond hair. Once he'd shot himself in the head, no hip-hopper." Gibson then tried to pull the victimized reverse-racism card on a caller who identified himself as black. Seriously?!
Disgusting like Imus. Boycott Fox (if you weren't already) until they serve him his walking papers. (Thanks to Huny for the link.)

Honestly this year has been one of the most controversial and one of the saddest years for are society in a long time. Between the school shootings which seem to happen almost everyday now, and the racist comments and actions that seem to be at a high right now in society. Racist comments made by radio host do nothing more then push are society backwards instead of forward. It is a privilege to speak on the radio so for John Gibson and Don Imus and everyone else on the radio please consider your message because essentially you are the voices of the world.

Who The HELL even listens to FOX radio anyways?!?
I'm tired of all these jackasses who bash a music they don't truly attempt to and (usually) don't want to understand. Yea, hip hop has its problems - that's not to say that rock doesn't either (which is the majority of what these kids who do these shootings probably listen to) .
It seems that having brains isn't a requirement for some of these so-called radio commentators. This punk-ass is only trying to get ratings - I don't know about you but I'm ignoring his dumb-ass.
