Sorry FOX, we won't let you trash Michelle Obama

by Kenji for everyone

Petition: http://foxattacks.com/michelle

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.

IN ADDITION TO THE PETITION SWAMP FOX WITH PHYSICAL LETTERS AND KEEP SWAMPING THEM WITH PHYSICAL LETTERS. They won't relent until THEY GET SWAMPED WITH LETTERS. And even if they don't relent, you have to tell them YOU MEAN BUSINESS. I will sign the petition, but if they EVEN THINK that they can easily dismiss us, WE GOTTA TELL THEM WE MEAN BUSINESS. And if you REALLY want to irk them, tell "Countdown" what's happening.

Countdown is a show on MSNBC hosted by Keith Olbermann. He really let's the GOP and FOX (fake) News have it...

Kenji this fist bump is weeks old. yes fox 1st came out and said it was terroist but, during the same week this was cleared up all on networks and even the fox news girl came back out and apologized for saying it was terroist.

I sure support a pettion against fox but it seems like this issue is not even discussed anymore.
I watch 6 hrs of political shows everyday. and this is old news. I watch these shows daily so I know what im talking about.---Oberman,dan abrahams, chris matthews, wolf blitzer, -- for those who dont know the names its -- msnbc, cnn, I watch all the panels and know whats going on evry day. Im not tripping but it seems this is so old an issue in the political age. Yes fox constanly puts down ANYTHING BLACK but they have moved on from the michelle obama fist bump. even the gop is not using this as a jab no more because michael jordan and charlie sheen did this in a new commercial before she did it. movie actors and everyone has been doing it weeks before she did it and after. its not somthing they can use no more. but they are still attacking her.

This was a brand new ad from Brave New Films, so that is why i posted it and showed the highlights of the way FOX (false) News really handle the news...

Even if it is old, it was a sad attempt to get the sheep to find a blemish on Sen. Obama. Shame on them.

My bad Kenji,
I jus looked at the video, I just read the write up the 1st time around and assumed it was all about the fist jab only.
