Bill O'Reilly on Fox News loves to say that Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are "race hustlers." This might be defined as anyone who uses race as a way to get the things that they want: Money, fame, power or attention. They might also lean on race or racism as a catchall method to promote their specific agenda. Charles Blow from the New York Times recently made the accurate point that while O'Reilly might want to refer to Sharpton and Jackson as race hustlers, it is actually he who is using race to promote his agenda, gain attention and make himself wealthy at the expense of the American people. I agree with Blow, whom I've only met during interviews on the Jesse Jackson radio show. His remark about O'Reilly is a simple one, but quite telling and informative about exactly how Fox News operates and the manipulative ways with which they throw gasoline on the racial fires in America in their quest to flood the airwaves with destructive and unAmerican propaganda. That's what this conversation is about. Please tell me what you think.
