After promoting the ‘Tea Protests’ on 9/12, as you would expect any balanced news organisation to do, Fox News took out an ad slamming rival news agencies for not covering them.

But Rick Sanchez from CNN is not happy about it – not only accusing Fox News of lying but also questioning why a news organisation would promote anti-President protests.

In another interview, ‘Tea Party’ leader Mark Williams admitted that a few of the signs aimed at Obama were racist.

But CNN’s Anderson Cooper catches him out calling the American President “an Indonesian Muslim and a welfare thug” earlier.

And yet some believe only a minority of the people involved in these protests are motivated by racism.

    [...] huge number of racist banners on display, but because the organiser of the recent protests himself got caught out calling the US president an “Indonesian Muslim welfare thug”. Furthermore, around 50% [...]
