Diversity-Resistant Tea Bagger Protests Not Seen That Way On Fox

Fox News, blindly supporting the tea bagger movement, produced a comment from right-wing and biased reporter Griff Jenkins (reporting for unstable and extremist conservative Glenn Beck) who may need his eyes examined again. In a sea of white faces and anti-Obama signs, Jenkins nonetheless tried to convince his audience that what people were actually seeing (a sea of angry far-right faces with no visible faces of color that could be seen) protesting the election of a black president (masking their motives as outrage over spending). Jenkins hopped down to the road and interviewed a few people (and carefully framed his questions) to prove that these protests were not as biased, hate-driven and partisan as know they are in reality.

Here is what Jenkins said as documented by News Hounds: “They are old, they’re black, they’re white, they’re male, they’re female, they’re farmers, they’re miners, they’re doctors…”

Uh, OK … Not sure Jenkins showed us much proof of any black people (never mind a significant number of black people were present).
