Fox Attacks Michelle Obama

Fox Attacks Michelle Obama

Fox’s long history of racism is nothing new, but it has been particularly egregious when it comes to their coverage of the Obamas.

You’re not going to believe what Fox is up to now—we could
hardly believe it ourselves.  Not only are they smearing Michelle
Obama with racist stereotypes, but then they offer a feeble apology that
they believe gives them the right to slander her again.  That’s
what happened when Fox called Michelle and Barack Obama’s fist bump
a "terrorist fist jab," apologized, and then less than a
week later referred to Michelle Obama as Barack’s
"Baby
Mama
."

Fox’s long history of racism is nothing new,
but it has been particularly egregious when it comes to their
coverage of the Obamas
.  Racism and fearmongering have no
place in our country or its politics, despite what Fox would have you
believe.  That’s why we put together this video, Fox
Attacks Michelle Obama
.

We cannot allow Fox’s
heinous smears and scare tactics to continue.  Sign our petition
and stop Fox from injecting racism, prejudice, and
fear into our political dialogue.  Then, send
it to all your
friends and family members for them to sign as well.  And spread it on sites
like Digg
to create an uproar.

We cannot allow Fox to
make politics about stereotypes, misinformation, and flat-out
dishonesty.  Not now.  Not ever.
