Does Rock music make you racist?

TUESDAY 3/6/12- Just a few minutes of listening to mainstream rock music such as Bruce Springsteen and the White Stripes is enough to make white students focus on the interests of other whites at the expense of back people and latinos, according to a dubious university research project, which went on to claim that white students who listened to Top 40 pop - made by artists such as Gwen Stefani and Akon - were fairer towards other ethnic groups. The researchers, who tested 138 students with different genres, say the finding shows that because rock is associated with white people, people unconsciously favour their own race after listening. After listening to Bruce Springsteen and the White Stripes, the students handed most of the money to white people.



"Rock music is generally associated with white Americans, so we believe it cues white listeners to think about their positive association with their own in-group,"said Heather LaMarre, an assistant professor of journalism and mass communication at the University of Minnesota. The conclusions of this study are being challenged because the sample size and testing methodology are highly questionable.

Should this federal judge be removed?

Chief U.S. District Judge Richard Cebull is in the national spotlight over an email he sent about a bestiality-themed joke concerning President Obama and the President’s mother. “Hope it touches your heart as it did mine,” the judge had joked.

The joke in question? Likened having intercourse with a black man to having sex with a dog:

A little boy said to his mother; “Mommy, how come I’m black and you’re white?”

His mother replied, “Don’t even go there Barack! From what I can remember about that party, you’re lucky you don’t bark!”

Judge Cebull apologized for the email after it became public, saying that he hadn’t initially “send the joke as racist,” although “that’s what it is.” The Ninth Circuit is set to conduct a misconduct review at Cebull’s own request.

Lately, Fox has increasingly promoted its straight-news talent in the press and conducted some of the toughest interviews and debates of the Republican primary season.

Greg is a BBC investigative journalist and national best-selling author, best known in the US for uncovering Katherine Harris' purge of black voters from Florida's voter rolls in the 2000 presidential election.

The plan by Calgary-based TransCanada Corp. would carry tar sands oil from western Canada across a 1,700-mile pipeline across six U.S. states to Texas refineries. Whistleblowers have warned that the safety software on major US pipelines is deliberately flawed.

Did Colmes put himself in the "hater" category?

TUESDAY 1/3/12- In a heated clash on Fox News, Alan Colmes appeared on air with Rich Lowry, editor of National Review. They were discussing Rick Santorum's recent surge in the polls, when Colmes brought up Santorum's infant son who died just two hours after being born. Colmes said, "Once [voters] get a load of some of the crazy things he's said and done, like taking his two-hour-old baby who died right after childbirth home and played with it for a couple of hours so his other children would know that the child was real.”

Also, Santorum was asked a question about foreign influence on the US economy. He responded, “" I don't want to make black people's lives better by giving them somebody else's money; I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money." Is this an appropriate answer?
