O’Reilly: Media Must Stand Firm Against The Race Card
Bill O’Reilly is defending himself against special interest groups, including the hip hop industry who have said he is racist in his stance against rappers. O’Reilly writes in the New York Daily News, “Because of my analysis, a hip-hop magazine has labeled me a racist, even though white rappers such as Eminem and Insane Clown Posse have come under my fire. Because I believe the rap industry is doing harm, I’ve been racially demonized by some who’d lose a lot if that business went south… Threats of racial demonization have put a tremendous fear into the journalism industry. These kinds of tactics have prevented some news organizations from covering news that is vital to the nation. The rap situation has been almost completely ignored by the elite media.”
