Will he be disgraced and marginalized? Somehow I think not.
CHICAGO - Fox News says the Rev. Jesse Jackson used the N-word during a break in a TV interview where he criticized presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The longtime civil rights leader already came under fire this month for crude off-air comments he made against Obama in what he thought was a private conversation during a taping of a "Fox & Friends" news show.
Now a Fox spokesman says Jackson used the N-word to refer to black people during that taping as he said Obama was talking down to them. Those comments were not aired.

Fox: Jackson used N-word in crude off-air remarks

2 hours, 3 minutes ago
CHICAGO - Fox News says the Rev. Jesse Jackson used the N-word during a break in a TV interview where he criticized presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The longtime civil rights leader already came under fire this month for crude off-air comments he made against Obama in what he thought was a private conversation during a taping of a "Fox & Friends" news show.
Now a Fox spokesman says Jackson used the N-word to refer to black people during that taping as he said Obama was talking down to them. Those comments were not aired.
Jackson — who is traveling in Spain — apologized in a statement Wednesday for "hurtful words" but didn't offer specifics.
The N-word comment was first reported by blog TVNewser. Fox declined to release the transcript.

It seems fox is more interested in being fair and balanced than tell the whole truth. Or could it be that they are worried they will lose interviews with the likes of jackson? Don't think it would really hurt them any, when they get people like him on they lose my viewership. When they advertise the negro racists are gonna be on I make sure not to watch the program.

Bill O'Reilly and Bernard Goldberg were going around about this last night. Bernard Goldberg said if anyone else has said this,it would be news and therefore it should be news when Jessie Jackson says it.
If that blogger hadn't released this,we would have never known. I'm a fan of Fox,but I think they were chicken on this one. Why release the "cut off his balls" comment and not this?

Good thing he didn't say "nappy headed ho", someone may have got upset. Oh well, he apologized, I guess all is well.
I'm proud republicans quit saying the "n" word. I wish the democrats would follow
So he's black, and used the word Nigger, that's fine with me, it's also fine with me if i chinese guy starts talkin about chinks, But if JJ starts talkin about Chinks then you have a problem, its very simple logic.

so you can be racist against your own race but not another's race......
but i am a member of the human race and find homoracisim offensive....
Is it a double standard? yes, is it reasonable? yes, i mean should i be slammed for racism if i call another guy whitty? Nor should a black man be held for calling another black man a nigger...unless he is racist against his own race...which just sounds paradoxical.
Sure JJ shouldn't have said it cus it just looks wrong, but that doesn't mean it is wrong.

To libs, only conservatives are racists and the left is always on guard to jump on any hint of racism (real or not) from the right side
When it comes from the left - they issue a collective yawn and issue the pass

In most liberal run countries I would be charged with a "hate crime" if I uttered the "n" word

Ofcourse you would dear, that would be because you are not black...however if you were to go about talkin about whitties you'd be fine, that's the point i was tryin to make.

They did not when Robert KKK Byrd did - so why would they over John Boy?

Byrd did not talk about "niggers"...he talked about "white niggers"
An idiomatic expression from West Virginia that means much the same as "trailer trash"...
I certainly disapprove of Byrd's use of idioms, but he clearly was not being RACIST or derrogatory to blacks when he made that remark.
next.

I am not aware of the man or what he did, if, however, he did, do as you claimed then i'm disapointed in the American Libs, but that still doesn't change my position, Blacks can call blacks what they want the same goes for any other race
Edit- and as now has been posted i see that the term 'white niggers' was used, against whites, by a white guy ergo no racism.

byrd was not just a klansman, he was a klan leader. He was also a professional politician that knows how to lie. A leopard does not change it's spots. It just blends in with the surroundings. The voters of WV continued to show how stupid they are for re electing him repeatedly.

The quote in question ("White nigger") isn't as cut and dry racism as it could be, however i'm pretty sure most liberals (except the blind faith ones) would be wholey against openly racist comments, especially as it is surly the liberals who are 'most against racism' if you know what i mean.

A derogatory term for "Jew". You see, this is all part of a well established pattern:
Rev. Jesse Jackson referred to Jews as "Hymies" and to New York City as "Hymietown" in January 1984 during a conversation with a black Washington Post reporter, Milton Coleman. Jackson had assumed the references would not be printed because of his racial bond with Coleman, but several weeks later Coleman permitted the slurs to be included far down in an article by another Post reporter on Jackson's rocky relations with American Jews.
A storm of protest erupted, and Jackson at first denied the remarks, then accused Jews of conspiring to defeat him. The Nation of Islam's radical leader Louis Farrakhan, an aggressive anti-Semite and old Jackson ally, made a difficult situation worse by threatening Coleman in a radio broadcast and issuing a public warning to Jews, made in Jackson's presence: "If you harm this brother [Jackson], it will be the last one you harm." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/frenzy/jackson.htm

In which case ofcourse it is wrong, as i said, backs can call blacks what they want, whites can call whites what they want, jews can call jews what they want, its when they start mixing, in this case a black man on a jew, that you get problems.

Following your logic it should be OK if a black busts a cap in another black right? That's how they kick it in the hood..... dig it, we's be keepin it real Yo.
No, really sometimes it is damned hard to make a simple point on this site without someone going off on one. What i said is, i think it is ok for a Black man to make comments such as nigger, as he is a black man...and therefore by his own terms he is a nigger, same goes for whites, chinese, jews ect ect.
So all i'm saying is you should not be held as a racist for using terms about your own race. Somehow you thought i meant its ok for black people to kill blacks and whites to kill whites =S

Hm, interesting take on things, i'd say that while he would be verbally abusing me and (depending on the extent) harassing me, he would not be being racist, in the same way that i would no be racist if i called a black guy 'whitey' or if a chinese guy called a black guy a 'chink'

It's awful-awful-awful for Imus to quote a phrase in normal use in all rap "music," if your definition of music is very, very loose, but if a black says a word even worse while threatening to castrate the leading presidential candidate ------------------
Oh, that's fine, no problem.
