This is an actual story from the Fox News web site, Fox Nation. The headline, “Obama “Pimp With The Limp” on 9/11,” marks a new low for an alleged “news” organization that has already sunk far lower than any other news organization.
The “article” is nothing more than the posting of a non-controversial interview (video below) of President Obama by a Miami radio DJ. The DJ is Lazaro Mendez (aka DJ Laz) who uses a sort of nickname, Pimp With a Limp, that was derived from his work as a rapper.
However, the headline used by Fox does not say that Obama was interviewed by the Pimp With a Limp. It simply uses the name as a slur to describe the President. And to top it off it invokes the 9/11 tragedy that had nothing to do with any of this. This is so utterly repulsive and disrespectful it requires no further commentary. But it is unbelievable that Fox continues to be treated as a mainstream news source when they engage in unethical antics like this.
I was thinking the other day how difficult it must be for Obama to be assaulted so crudely for his race, after I read this: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/09/04/1127687/-Chris-Christie-left-his-hot-butt-poker-at-home
I suppose he had a lifetime of practice. For his courage and dignity in the face of the most disgusting disrespect, I have to admire him.
Do you make that statement because you actually believe most attacks on him are race based vs. the fact some people (me included) believe he is a terrible president or is it just that you just can’t believe people just don’t like him for his policy positions, etc? I went to find the article on Foxnation referenced here and couldn’t find it, so I don’t know exactly what it stated – only what Mark states.
Maybe because it was deleted after they realized how offensive it is?
Nope. It’s still there.
Being racist and deliberately offensive isn’t enough of a reason for Fox to remove anything.
IDIOT! This was about Obama doing an INTERVIEW with the pimp with the limp, not Obama being the pimp. LOL. How pathetic this site is. Only a loser would actually be a member.
You shouldn’t go around calling other people idiots and morons when it’s clear that you can’t even read. The image posted above does NOT say anything about an interview.
No mark, Dan’s correct-you’re a moron.
