Fox Welcomes Karine Jean-Pierre With Racist Sexist Anti-Gay Smears



Fox Welcomes Karine Jean-Pierre With Racist Sexist Anti-Gay Smears
Fox must be desperate to have lost all pretense of being anything but race-baiting, anti-gay, anti-woman screechers.

On Tuesday's Tucker Carlson's Fox "News" program, Carlson and Charlie Hurt attacked the incoming press secretary being proud she's the first Black gay female press secretary.

I have never seen an incoming press secretary from any administration take this kind of abuse before taking over the job.

Fox News and Republicans despise Jen Psaki because of how effective she is. She's never belligerent or mean-spirited. Psaki even treats Peter Doocy with respect.

Not so with Tuckems and Fox News.

Carlson said, "I feel like we're in for a huge helping of more of the same same."

Hurt agreed and said, "This woman is the purest, lowest distillation of everything that the Biden administration stands for."

He continued, "They are absolutely beside themselves. Watching the hand-off between Jen Psaki and Karine [Jean-Pierre] and her gushing over the fact that she is the first black press secretary and the first out press secretary."


Notice how many times Hurt describes Jean-Pierre as "this woman."

Hurt said so far she's been bad at the podium.

"But this is the thing that sort of gets me about her is that her father was a taxi driver. Have you ever met a taxi driver you did not think was interesting? This woman is not a product of her father who was probably a very interesting guy,"

Sexism much? What's her father got to do with it? Every taxi driver they meet is some sort of Kreskin/Seinfeld? I bet these two never bother talking to a taxi (Uber/Lyft) driver if they ever take one.

Continuing Republicans constant assault on public education, Hurt then made these asinine remarks.

"She's a product of American education today, and this is the kind of dribble that you wind up with. You think, you turn everything into race. You accuse everybody of being a racist, and you peddle conspiracy theories," Hurt opined.


Commenting on the insane state of the Republican party is not peddling conspiracy theories, jackass.

... House, worked in the private sector, senior management in presidential campaigns, press spokesperson,
smart, pretty, black, and gay too. No wonder Fox is shittin' kittens. I predict that Fox will be cutting away or
not even broadcasting her pressers.

"She's a product of American education today, and this is the kind of dribble that you wind up with." Fox News C. Hurt

Trump's last press secretary's first lie was that she would not lie.
