Apparently, some of the readers of FoxNews.com think Tamir Rice, a 12-year old shot and killed by the police because he was brandishing a toy gun, was guilty of playing while black. That's bad enough but why on earth would FoxNews.com allow the openly racist comments about African Americans to remain on its thread?
As the anonymous reader who alerted me to this thread about a lawsuit filed against the city of Cleveland over the boy's death, noted, the comments are not on Fox Nation, a more freewheeling offshoot of FoxNews.com that we have come to expect to be a cesspool of murderous racism, but on FoxNews.com, Fox News' flagship website. You'd expect a better class of discussion.
Yet we found the following comments on the site today, three days or so after they were posted.
Don't tell me that Fox News, a money-making juggernaut, can't afford to moderate its comments.
I can only assume it doesn't want to.

These cafeteria Catholic losers know that race, religion and military are hot topics in America, and they capitalize on it for ratings purposes.
One of the business models is to select stories that focuses on those topics. They research their audience and cater to that conservative mindset of pro-military, pro-police, anti-Obama, anti-Democrat, anti-minority, etc. The racist comments posted on the Foxies’ website are the same people who watch the channel, and the suits know it.
The suits regularly hold meetings with producers in conference rooms to discuss programming. They study everything from the sets, the mouthpieces, to the stories.
Combining inflammatory stories with dressing the predominantly blonde female mouthpieces in short skirts-to show off their legs for male viewers-is one of the reasons these frauds stay number one.
These third-rate, worthless suits know exactly what they are doing. Don’t let them fool you, otherwise.
Hate is profitable at this worthless, satanic-driven network.
If this were possible, to fly to everyone’s house and beat the shit out of them for posting things like that…… The vile comments would drop to about zero.
The same goes for how their web counterparts are set up to skirt what online regulation of the media there is- They know the FCC and SPJ would stomp them in a New York minute if they were in juristiction, so they troll from the outskirts, and pray things never change.
Alrighty, then. I’ll play along.
Um, because…………FoxNoise and its website pander to racists?
I think leaving it as rhetorical probably works for the best.
