Fox News doesn't know what a Baby's Mama is

Fox News is ridiculous! Now that I got that out of the way, I want to talk about the clip of this channel dissing on Michelle Obama.

This shouldn't be a surprise, Fox News is known for their foolishness, it's their way of life. But, it seems that are going after the Obamas in an interesting way. Within a few weeks, they have been running stories about Michelle calling someone "whitey", terrorist fist-bumping, and now, calling Michelle a Baby's Mama.

I don't know if they are trying to be hip or what, but this time they blew it. Fox News not only showed us how silly they are, but how their researchers are whack. The term Baby's Mama, means a woman who has kids out of wedlock. Which is also used to describe a woman of color.

After seeing this mess, I thought, "really" "is this real?" But then again, it's Fox News. With a few of these "mistakes or poor judgments" I have to wonder if Fox News are taking themselves seriously. Other news places have their quirks too, but this is too many too soon.

Someone needs to look at their programming and have a two-hour meeting about their direction. If you want to be a credible source of news, please don't try the Perez Hilton style of reporting. Then again, that could be your audience. For the past few weeks Fox News has issued apology after apology, sooner or later someone should be issuing pink slip after pink slip.
