Rapper Nas Delivers Fox News Petition, Says Network Is "Scared"


YES IT'S ABOUT TIME SOMEONE TOOK ON RACIST ASS FOX FIX NEWS!!!!!!!!! WITH ITS SLIMY AND RACIST PEOPLE I.E SEAN HANNITY AKA RACIEST A--HOLE, KARL THE CROOK ROVE, THE BIGGEST BIGOT Bill O'Reilly, THAT SICKING STATION NEEDS TO BE SHUT COMPLETELY DOWN!!!

About four hours after the announcement that his controversial, politically charged ninth album was number one in the country, Nas was on a small podium in front of Fox News headquarters in New York City protesting what he sees as racist attacks against Black Americans and presidential candidate Barack Obama. In a brief prepared statement, the multi-platinum rapper pointed out examples of what he and ColorOfChange see as a long racist smear campaign against the Obama family: The onscreen graphic that referred to Michelle Obama as the Senator's "baby mama"; Bill O'Reilly casually using the phrase "lynching party" to refer to attacks on the Senator's wife; referencing to the couple's infamous fist thump as a "terrorist fist jab." Said Nas, "Fox poisons this country every time they air racist propaganda and try to call it news. This should outrage every American that Fox uses hateful language to talk about the person that may be the first black president."


The rapper stood next to 19 neatly stacked cardboard boxes, with the number 620,127 taped to the side of each one -- over 600,000 signatures gathered by ColorOfChange demanding that network president Roger Ailes "find a solution to address racial stereotyping and hate-mongering before it hits the airwaves." Fox rejected the petitions, but Brave New Films says that Comedy Central's The Colbert Report will accept them instead.

T4R-Nas is on point and this makes us respect him even more. Someone needs to take on racist Faux News and the moron Sean Hannity. I am sick of the way he assaults Obama every night on his show. Colmes is a total weakling and does not stick up for Obama. I can't stand O'Reilly either
