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.
