I don't watch Fox News. No, I'm not a raging liberal, it's just that that fear-mongering, Obama-bashing excuse for a news network has done such a terrible job of building off of the great legacy FOX created with Black America. What's so weird about the whole thing is that Rupert Murdoch, the billionaire behind News Corp., the parent company for both Fox and Fox News, is somehow responsible for giving us the network that brought In Living Color, New York Undercover, Living Single and Martin, four shows that catered directly to Blacks yet his news network does the complete opposite...it'd be like B.E.T. hiring Ryan Seacrest to host 106 & Park...
Don't get me wrong, I love 24 with Kiefer Sutherland and I know Fox News does a good job to balance out the lefties at MSNBC, but when I look back at these shows, it doesn't make sense if I'm putting myself in Rupert Murdoch's shoes. It seems pretty obvious that he used Black America in the mid-'90s to build his empire in order to support his conservative political stances via Fox News in the 2000s.
