From Washington Post:
Fox News’s news-aggregation Web site, Fox Nation, made an odd and many say “race-baiting” editorial decision Friday when it splashed a story about Obama’s birthday over its homepage with the headline “Obama’s Hip-Hop BBQ Didn’t Create Jobs” and a photo of Obama next to three black celebrities who attended.
The report, which aggregated a Politico story, goes on to detail the menu, guests and R&B, jazz, hip-hop and Motown performances at the event. The report does not mention the performance by white rock band OK Go.
Fox Nation’s headline was taken from a quote by press secretary Jay Carney, who once admitted that “the White House doesn’t create jobs.”
No sooner was the story posted than liberal bloggers pointed out the racism of the headline and accompanying photograph.
