FoxNews ticker: "Let's hope the magic negro does a good job"

Jeebus. Why don't they come right out and ask if they'll be serving fried chicken at the inaugural dinner?

As if Americans needed any more reminders of how closely aligned with the Republican party the Fox News network is, New Year's Eve brings us this new tidbit.

During it's broadcast from New York City, the network encouraged viewers to send in text messages which, if approved by moderators, would scroll across the Fox ticker at the bottom of the screen.

Moderators, however, let this one slip: "HAPPY NEW YEAR AND LET’S HOPE THE MAGIC NEGRO DOES A GOOD JOB. LOVE JEN AND JOHN C."

What's "C" stand for, "cracker"? Let's hope President Obama drives Faux Nooze into the tank and into total obscurity.

Well, fuck me blind. Are we twins or what? I just blogged this (along with a bunch of other stuff, but what I feel most proud of is the gratuitous use of the epithet "yambag" which I regard as one of my favourite gifts from you).

And, a very happy new year!

PCat, I had to go read your "If I Were A Cobbler" post again. It's a thing of beauty.
