"You mad bro?" Called racist

[QUOTE="Ace6301"][QUOTE="BMD004"]No... it's the local news on a local Fox affiliate. :)BMD004

the gap between Fox news (and affiliates) and Onion news is dwindling....except only Onion knows what's fake :)

I do hope you all understand there is a difference between fox news and a local news program that is just on the local fox station.Sunsha

They're all equally ignorant on what memes are :P

By fox news , of course

I mean really, "racial intimidation"? Seriously?

All I could think of was this:

I mean, I fail to see how the the term is racist...

1) What does Fox news reporting on this story have to do with anything? Isn't it obvious that some people would find saying "bro" to a black person to be offensive?

2) Anyone who says "You mad bro?" is a tool anyway.

I like how everything Fox News does is to dilute the truth. I mean, halfway through they look it up and realize its an internet thing, but then the other 90% of it is old people complaining that its racist.

[QUOTE="BMD004"][QUOTE="Ace6301"] Actually it is Fox news (8). oh ho, gamespot turned my witty retort into a cool face. I am mad indeed brother.Ace6301

No. Usually local stations are owned by smaller media companies. Being affiliated with Fox just means that they have an agreement with Fox to carry Fox programming. It doesn't mean that Fox has any ownership stake in the company. In this case the Fox affiliate is WJW-TV, which is owned by a company called LocalTV (which is in turn owned by a private equity firm). LocalTV owns 18 local television stations across the US. Of those 8 are Fox affiliates, 5 are CBS, there's a couple of NBC and a couple of ABC affiliates, and even a CW in there.

How is Fox News still relevant?

as a black man I'm offended

I guess it's not as noob as being a media giant like Oprah and being sucessfully trolled by 9000 penises who don't forgive nor forget.

ORLY Fox News?

**** Black coach has to pull the race card because of their own insecurity, they are the ones who are **** racist if that is the way they think. Always got to push the race card and then white people will bend the **** over. People need to grow some balls and tell them to **** off cuz they lost.

"You mad bro?" isn't racist, but what I'm about to say is... Why is it always black people pulling the race card? Are they that insecure in their own race?PernicioEnigma

Nothing against them but anytime anywhere people can they pull the race card. It's quite sad actually.

Would it be racist to whites if they held up a sign that read:

'You mad brethren?'

Also that's a local Fox News affiliate and not Fox News channel. They're different.

You know there's something wrong when f***ing internet memes are getting into the news.

"You mad white people" wouldn't have gotten any attention...This is ridiculous.

:lol: these people don't know anything about Internet memes

Alternatively, they just mad :P

I guess they were just mad.

Everything is racist because it is racist so that makes it racist since it's aimed at a race.

Fox News is full of idiots. They know nothing about Internet memes.Oil_rope_bombs

One could say something similar about the people in this thread who cannot distinguish the difference between a local TV station and a cable news network. :roll:

The responses in this thread show just how much hatred people have for Fox News and direct it to those who do not deserve it. I may get moderated for this thread, but really, all those who think that WJW-TV in Cleveland is Fox News should be due to the uncalled for vitriol thrown at them.

Once again this is not Fox News. The difference has been explained in this thread. Even still it's not the station calling it racist, they're simply reporting a local news story.

In court they should hold up a cool story bro after they do their speech or whatever.

They mad!

I'm being racist!!

Whether Fox News is full of idiots or not is irrelevant here as this has nothing to do with Fox News.

One word... Phale, the media should start thorughly checking what they are reporting beofre they do... even if it is something pointless like that
