Jessie Jackson-foot in mouth again!
 
Well, super Black member of life has chewed on his toes again!

Uses the N-Word and appologizes again as he did not know the mike was live!

A real role model for African-Americans.:rolleyes:

I'm still trying to figure out when Jesse became the Official Spokesperson for All Things Black :confused:

Forgot the link.

I don't know why everyone is getting on Jesse for something that was not supposed to be aired. Why isn't Fox being reprimanded for letting something like this get out? Like NO ONE else has let a non-PC word slip when no one was watching...

He served that role while he was Supreme Basileus of the Blacks from 1984-1988.

Well, the reason people are actually getting on him is because, quite frankly, millions of (white) Americans just don't like the dude for whatever reason (and there are many, both separate from and attached to general racism).

They should get on his ass for being a hypocrite, since Jackson has excoriated rappers and athletes for propagating use of the 'n-word' - which would at least be moderately justified. That's not really what is happening, though.

I agree with the second paragraph. I still think it's a little over the top, though (for other reasons -- I won't open up that can of worms).

:D

actually K Sig is right on point...the same man (along with the NAACP) said that the N word should be buried and admonished entertainers for its use should not be walking around resurrecting the word.

The only thing I got from this thread is that knight_shadow and Senusret are on crack.

If he had not recently made another gaffe, I doubt there would be the attention to it that there is now. The man needs to learn that you should always assume the mike is hot.

That was the exact thing I was going to ask when I saw Tom's post.
