More "N Word OK For Blacks But Not Whites" Crud

Here we have in Jesse Jackson a man who claims to abhor the N word more than anyone still figures I guess that it's OK for him, Snoop Dogg, Fiddy Cent and all the utha bruthas to use that vernacular but forbid and punish anyone whiter than Barack Obama from saying it or dares to use it.

What a load of hypocritical double standard nonsense this all, that is until blacks seriously consider shelving the word they supposedly hate so much from their daily vernacular when referring to themselves and one another....

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

My Way News - : "CHICAGO (AP) - 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."

The story referred to in the last line above is below ....

Breaking: What Else Jesse Jackson Said on That FNC Tape

TVNewser: "Exclusive: TVNewser has been sent the transcript of what Jesse Jackson said Sunday morning July 6, as he prepared for an interview on Fox & Friends Weekend. Below is the partial transcript we received in our tips box, and confirmed to be authentic by Fox News Channel representatives.

Barack...he's talking down to black people...telling n—s how to behave.

So, yes. Jesse Jackson did use the 'N' word. But it was not directed at Barack Obama. Fox News and Bill O'Reilly have maintained there was more on the tape, but that the un-aired portion was not relevant to the issue at hand: about whether Obama was 'talking down' to the black community."

Michelle Malkin covers this today as well in a good post from last night chiding the Rev for ripping users of the word while using it himself.....

Jesse Jackson: N-word for me, but not for thee; Update: Readers say ‘Play the tape!’

Update 10:00pm: Tons of readers are asking me why my colleagues at Fox won’t just play the entire tape and let viewers decide for themselves whether it’s newsworthy. I’m with you guys. I have no idea why they feel so compelled to cover Jesse Jackson’s backside. It’s not like he’ll ever return the favor–and judging from my e-mail, the decision to withhold the tape is annoying the hell out of Fox’s loyal viewers who have stuck with the “We report, you decide” network. I feel your pain.

Example from Jack in West Va.: “As a loyal FNC viewer, I can’t understand why Fox won’t play the entire Jesse Jackson tape in order to corroborate his use of the N-word. I feel Jackson’s hypocrisy is very newsworthy!”continued here
