Think Progress reports:

The Fox Orlando affiliate, WOFL, aired a shockingly uncritical report of the groups activities. The Fox reporter, Jennifer  Bisram, introduced the group by saying, “There’s another civil rights group in town.” She also conducts an interview with the group’s leader, Jeff Schoep, without challenging any of his claims about the nature and mission of the group. [Bisram] includes none of the groups Nazi ties or incendiary history in her report. She concludes: “They say they are just a civil rights group trying to protect people in case things get out of hand. They say they intend to follow all the Florida laws while patrolling.”

As previously reported by Newsone, tensions continue to mount in Sanford, Florida, the town where neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman, 28, gunned down 17-year-old Trayvon Martin on February 26 in a vigilante-style execution that has polarized the nation.

Schoep, representative for the Detroit-based National Socialist movement who until 2008 protested in full Nazi uniform, told the Miami New Times that approximately 10 to 20 volunteers are ready, able and willing to protect the “White citizens in the area” if race riots ensue:

Whenever there is one of these racially charged events, Al Sharpton goes wherever Blacks need him,” he said belligerently, “We do similar things. We are a White civil rights organization…We are not the type of White people who are going to be walked all over.”

Schoep further contends that “the Constitution was written by white men alone, therefore, it was intended for whites alone” and that the organization’s action is in response to the $10,000 bounty being offered by the New Black Panther Party for the citizen’s arrest of Zimmerman.

Trayvon’s case has sparked national outrage because he was an innocent, unarmed Black child who was mercilessly shot in cold-blood by overzealous neighborhood watch captain, George Zimmerman. At the time of his vigilante-style execution, Trayvon was armed with nothing but an Arizona Iced Tea and Skittles for his younger brother.

Zimmerman continues to walk free while apparently being protected from persecution by the Sanford Police Department, leading the family to call for FBI intervention while planning Trayvon’s funeral.

As this story gains traction, including the explosive reports that the New Black Liberation Militia will attempt a citizen’s arrest of Zimmerman, the silence of FOX News gets increasingly loud.

Think Progress reports:

Martin has merited coverage by the New York Times, the Washington Post, and USA Today. The story has been covered by all three broadcast networks and extensively on cable. But there is one outlet that has barely mentioned Trayvon Martin — Fox News.

See below for chart revealing the right-wing cable network’s negligence in sharing this horrific story with their audience.

Though it should come as no surprise that FOX News doesn’t value justice for Black children and is taking a pro-actively racist stance by willfully suppressing Zimmerman’s crimes in the news, one would think that their viewers would be insulted by the narrow, white-washed view of the world that the network provides.

According to poll results released November of 2011, FOX News viewers are less informed than people who watch no news at all, reports the Huffington Post.

One thing is for certain, the murder of Trayvon Martin will not be forgotten and justice will prevail — whether FOX News tells the story or not.

Williams has cut a new song, “Keep the Change,” calling out “Fox & Friends” and ESPN after an interview last week on the Fox News talk show led to the end of his association with the sports network and “Monday Night Football,” long home to his “Are you ready for some football?” theme.

Hank Williams, Jr. Apologizes For Comparing Obama To Hitler

ESPN Pulls Hank Williams, Jr. After He Compares Obama To Hitler

“I’ve been recording for five decades, and I knew that old over-the-fence feeling on this one,” Williams said in an interview Monday afternoon.

He’s also scheduled to appear on “The View” and “Hannity” on Tuesday to discuss the uproar that sprung up after he made an analogy that President Barack Obama and House Speaker Rep. John Boehner golfing together was like Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu playing a round.

ESPN decided to pull Williams’ intro from last week’s “MNF” telecast after the comments, and the move became permanent Thursday when both sides said they’d decided to pull the spot.

Williams wrote the topical third verse of “Keep the Change” when he woke up around 4 a.m. Friday. He borrowed a guitar once owned by George Jones to write the melody and was in a studio with a group of musicians by 4 p.m. The song was done by 5:30 and was being mastered Monday morning.

“It’s got to be one of the fastest (I’ve recorded),” Williams said.

It’s now available for free for 48 hours at Williams’ website. There also are new “Hank Jr. for President” T-shirts for sale.

In the song, Williams, son of country music icon Hank Williams, says “Fox & Friends” hosts twisted his words: “So Fox ‘n Friends wanna put me down/Ask for my opinion/Twist it all around.” He finishes the verse: “Well two can play that gotcha game you’ll see.”

Early in the song, he says the U.S. is “going down the drain” and says it’s becoming “The United Socialist States of America.” He mentions keeping “Fox & Friends” and ESPN out of your home toward the end of the song.

Asked to elaborate on how he felt about “Fox & Friends,” Williams said: “All you gotta do is listen to the song, folks.”

Williams’ comments last Monday drew unlikely reactions with many commentators and comedians coming to his defense, claiming ESPN was infringing on his right to free speech. His defenders included the left-leaning Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar of “The View” and Jon Stewart of “The Daily Show” and on the other side of the political landscape Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh.

And “Saturday Night Live” also did a comedy bit featuring the Williams interview.

Of his appearance on “The View,” he said: ‘It’ll be pretty simple. I’m really looking forward to it. I guess it’s kind of like back to John Adams and Johnny Cash and The First Amendment and all that good American stuff.”

Williams’ theme song has been part of “MNF” since 1989. The song was a version of his hit “All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight” that he altered to match each week’s game. He owns the song and all the rights to it, so ESPN will not be able to use it in any way.

Instead, the network says it will use an intro featuring Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders and soul singer Jimmy Scott prior to the Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions game Monday night. The introduction will change each week.

Williams has already moved on. The quickness with which the new song came together has him itching to put out a new album and he’s in the early stages of planning a tour for next year. If he can find the time.

“Believe it or not, I have another 212 call,” he said in ending the interview, referring to the area code for New York City.

The study, which examines “reverse discrimination,” a term used to describe anti-white discrimination, contrasts the opinions of Americans who say they most trust Fox News against Black and Muslim respondents.

Among Americans who say they most trust Fox News, 26 percent say reverse discrimination is a critical issue, and nearly twice as many as say discrimination against minority groups is a critical issue (14 percent). At the other end of the spectrum, only 8 percent of Americans who most trust public television say reverse discrimination is a critical issue, compared to 27 percent who say discrimination against minorities is a critical issue.

Fox News’ news-aggregation website, Fox Nation, made an odd and many say “race-baiting” editorial decision Friday when it splashed a story about Obama’s birthday over its homepage with the headline “Obama’s Hip-Hop BBQ Didn’t Create Jobs” and a photo of Obama next to three black celebrities who attended.

The report, which aggregated a Politico story, goes on to detail the menu, guests and R&B, jazz, hip-hop and Motown performances at the event. The report does not mention the performance by white rock band OK Go.

The article, published Friday morning, generated more than 2,000 comments and substantial objections from people who found it to be inaccurate at best and racist at worst. Media Matters for America, a progressive group that campaigns against Fox, asserted that the article was part of a pattern of “race-baiting headlines and content” on the Web site.

Top 5 Worst Rupert Murdoch Employees

FBI To Investigate Murdoch Over 9/11 Victim’s Phone Hacking

5. Col Allan. Editor Of The New York Post

Col Allan is the Australian born editor for Rupert Murdoch’s flagship U.S. paper, The New York Post. Like Fox News, The Post combines tabloid journalism with racism and right-wing propaganda. Allan was at the center of the controversy of the Obama-Chimp cartoon drawn by Post cartoonist, Sean Delonas, which seemingly both called the President of the United States a chimp and called for his assassination.

Former Post employee, Sandra Guzman, sued the paper and Col Allan claiming that Allan showed female employees pictures of men’s penises on his Blackberry; and would rub his penis on female employees, and sexually harass them. Guzman would also claim that Post employees would make fun of non-white employees heritage, and that non-white employees were fired unjustly. In the lawsuit she claimed that the Post’s goal was to “destroy Barack Obama.”

4. Andy Coulson, Editor, News Of The World

Andy Coulson is part of the English phone-hacking scandal that is currently threatening Murdoch’s media empire.

In 2008, Coulson was successfully sued for $1.2 million for “bullying” by a former employee. The New York Times reported that Coulson encouraged employees to illegally hack into people’s voicemail, and Channel 4 reported that he listened to illegally intercepted voicemails himself. Like many Murdoch employees, Coulson blurred the line between journalist and political operative, becoming Director of Communications for U.K. Prime Minister, David Cameron.

3. Glenn Beck. Fox News Host

Although Beck is now gone from Fox News, he is still one of Murdoch’s worst employees.

Beck propagates wild conspiracy theories, while demonizing President Barack Obama as a Hitler-like communist who plans on bringing back slavery and concentration camps. Murdoch said he agreed with Beck’s claim that Obama was “racist” and “hated white people.”

2. Judith Regan. Fox News Host/Regan Books Publisher

Judith Regan was partners with Murdoch for ReganBooks — her own book publishing company — and was a former Fox News host.

Regan caused controversy with her book with O.J. Simpson, “If I Did It,” in which Simpson gave a detailed confession of what would have happened “if” he killed Nicole Brown Simpson. Regan had arranged for a confession from Simpson to air on Fox News, but both the book and confession were canceled after backlash.

Regan would go on to sue NewsCorp for $100 million after she was fired for allegedly making anti-Semitic comments. Regan claimed that she was forced by Fox News head, Roger Ailes, to lie to federal prosecutors about an affair she was having with Bernard Kerik, Rudy Giuliani’s right hand man and former President Bush nominee for Secretary of Homeland Security. Regan would receive an eight figure settlement  from News Corp, and Kerik would later be convicted and jailed for conspiracy, tax fraud and making false statements.

1. Roger Ailes. Head Of Fox News

Roger Ailes has been masking right-wing propaganda as “Fair and Balanced” news since before Fox News was thought of. Ailes began as a media consultant for Richard “Tricky Dick” Nixon and has been manipulating the media for right-wing causes ever since.

After Obama was elected, Ailes would continue these attacks against Obama and his associates, making big issues out of ACORN, the New Black Panther Party and Van Jones. Under his guidance, Fox News propelled the anti-Obama Tea Party to a serious national movement.

One of Ailes suggestions for the Nixon campaign was to plant a racist at a townhall to ask Nixon about the n-word.

To balance an obligatory “Negro” on a panel in Philadelphia, Ailes dreamed of adding a “good, mean Wallacite cab driver.”

“Wouldn’t that be great? Some guy to sit there and say, ‘Awright, Mac, what about these ni**ers?’”

Ailes was responsible for the infamous Wille Horton anti-Dukakis ads while working for George Bush Sr., which pundits said used race-bating and fear to garner support for Bush. Of the ad, Ailes said:

“The only question is whether we depict Willie Horton with a knife in his hand or without it.”

Ailes would go on to produce right-wing bigot, Rush Limbaugh’s, short lived syndicated TV show in the nineties.

In 1996, Ailes founded Fox News with Rupert Murdoch. Ailes would incorporate talking points from Fox News directly from the Bush White House, and Fox News would defend and support Bush’s choice to go to war in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In the 2008 election, Ailes started his attack on candidate Barack Obama by jokingly mistaking him for Osama Bin Laden. His army of Fox News commentators and hosts would demonize Obama as Muslim, a socialist, and a militant African. Ailes would use the same race-baiting scare tactics he did with Willie Horton to turn Reverend Wright, and Michelle Obama’s alleged “Whitey Tape” into scandals.

Since the election, Ailes has continued his attacks on Obama. Scaring his white, uneducated demographic with made up scandals about ACORN, the New Black Panther Party, and rapper Common. Ailes has been a champion for the anti-Obama Tea Party movements and the ridiculous birther movement. There are rumors that Ailes may be the next Murdoch employee to undergo a government investigation due to his dealings with Judith Regan and Bernard Kerik.

Rupert Murdoch attacked with pie at hacking hearing

Murdoch: Innocent until proven guilty

Some have even characterized him as the devil himself.

Media outlets, Fox News adversaries and liberal pundits alike have taken advantage of the media tycoon’s tumultuous fall.

Certainly, the bias and somewhat racial-innuendo reporting of Murdoch’s Fox News has garnered the company some obvious opponents: Democrats, African-Americans, left-wing supporters, Obama supporters, etc.

Fox News reporters have covered stories alluding to the president’s race with comments like “Hoodlums” and “Hizzouse,” brow-raising mishaps like mistaking Osama Bin Laden’s name with Obama’s, and the controversial, doctored video falsely implicating Shirley Sherrod of racist commentary, just to name a few.

With all considered, one could easily draw conclusions as to why so many seem to relish in Murdoch’s ruin. For years, Murdoch and his conglomerate have been loathed for its alleged right-wing bias and agenda-driven reporting. Now, with an open investigation implicating Murdoch’s British tabloid of corruption and phone hacking, many are hoping it will lead to the dismantling of his entire news empire.

Though Murdoch obviously is guilty of both harmful and innocuous yellow journalism, is all the media hate fairly warranted?

Yes, several Murdoch employees have been found guilty of unethical behavior, but is it really fair to socially indict Murdoch, without any concrete evidence that he is personally responsible for the immoral actions of his employees?

Theoretically, one can assume that if his “surrogate daughter,” Rebekah Brooke, and other top officials are implicated in what may be an unethically internal pattern, then Murdoch is involved in some way, no matter how minuscule it may be.

But such conjectures can only be taken with a grain of salt until proved otherwise.

So far, Murdoch has played his cards right. Upon the scandal breaking out, Murdoch immediately shut down News of the World, and even traveled to the UK to apologize to the family of the deceased young girl whose phone was hacked by reporters. He has even agreed to meet before the Parliament, whom will surely light fire under him. Whether one believes the sincerity of his apologetic nature, one must agree that he has handled the matter quite well.

It’s far too acquiescent to drag Murdoch through the mud. Maybe critics and the likes should wait for the investigation to conclusively link the immoral failings to Murdoch.

He may be guilty of bad journalism and personal gain, but guilty of corruption and masterminding a phone-hacking scandal?

We’ll have to wait for the law to determine that one.

Morgan said during an appearance on daytime’s “The Talk” that he expected the topic would be addressed. But he said, “I’m not going to join the Murdoch bashing.”
