Thread Name: BS: FoX News TKO's Obama..Shirley Sherrod Firing
Subject: BS: FoX News TKO's Obama...
Well, well, well... Seems that Fox News has pulled off it's latest ACORN hatchet job on a women who works for the Department of Agriculture in assistin' farmers in gettin' federally backed loans... Yep, Shirley Sherrod, who has worked in that capacity since the early 80's has been torpedoes by Fox and in turn, without any review of the facts, by the Obama administartion...

This women in a speech to the NAACP spoke about an incident that occured back in 1986 where she was to assist a "white farmer" in getting a loan... She had previously worked with black farmers and thought that she would put this white farmer thru the ringer... Problem is that her better side thought that that wasn't what she was to do and so she helped this white farmer, Roger Spooner, save his farm... The entire speech was so taken out of context that she was fired yesterday...

Now the truth comes out... Fox edited the speech to make it sound as if Ms. Sherrod was talkin' about recnt events when in reality these things occured some 3 decades ago... Fox also left out "the rest of the story" whioch was rewally about how this couragous women, a black women who had grown up in the deep South, has overcome her prejudices... That was the real story... Not Fox so-called newsw lies and manipulations... Shame on Fox but...

...shame on the Obama administrations fallin' for Fox's lies...

This career woman need to be reinstated and Obama need to tell Fox so-called news to...

...fuck the fuck off!!!
