Really? The guy published an article titled "The 15 Most Overrated White People" and you need a quote? 
Look, I mostly like MLH. He's more rational than a lot of liberals. But, he's also plainly a race baiter. It's silly to deny it.

You still haven't answered my question, but I see that you're trying to move the target from "racist comment" to "race baiter". Your problem is with his views, not any supposedly racist comment he made. If these quotes are all over the place, certainly you can provide one of them.

Self evident questions don't deserve an answer. Google is your friend. Would you like to debate what color the sky is on a clear day? Perhaps you'd like to claim it's purple? BTW a race baiter in my view is someone that consistantly makes prejudiced and pejorative statements based along racial lines. I haven't moved the goal posts. If you want to play semantic games, you'll have to find someone else.

Nice projection. Don't presume what my views are and are not.

I'd say the premise is. There is NO reason the article could have been titled "12 Overrated People". I wonder how MLH would feel being put on a list of "Overrated Black People"? I'm guessing (though only guessing) he'd have a problem with it.

You absolutely moved the goal posts and are playing a game of semantics. Hill didn't get fired for any statement or comment that he made, and if you used google, you would know that. Rupert Murdoch pointed to complaints about his political views, not any specific comment that he made. If he had made some racist comment, Murdoch would have mentioned it and you would have already posted it rather than duck the question. But for the sake of this argument, let me humor you, and take your word that you're so sensitive on the issue of race that you feel that Hill is a racist/race baiter. Is Rush Limbaugh also a racist/race baiter based on your defintion? If your answer is no, I have no interest in discussing this issue with you any further

Why can't he use the word "White"? He's not using a broad brush to disparage or demean Whites in any way. He's only making an observation about a few specific White folks. I absolutely would have no problem if some White guy wrote an article entitled "12 Overrated Black People".

I didn't realize he had been fired. He was a smart guy, but he wasn't liberal. He was full blown socialist and probably farther left than that.

I have trouble focusing sometimes when Kirsten is giving her talking points---i want my sinful and deviant thoughts of her to be a reality in real time-- the same goes for Martha McCollam in the a.m. but thats off-topic.

Weaksauce.
First, how do you know this...
quote:
Hill didn't get fired for any statement or comment that he made
... is true? As I asked what line producer do you know? Or are you just projecting again?
quote:
Rupert Murdoch pointed to complaints about his political views
So you're saying Murdoch hates his views, but not his statements and comments?
quote:
Is Rush Limbaugh also a racist/race baiter based on your defintion?
Stop trying to deflect with Rush Limbaugh.
quote:

Ok then. Please link to where I a) said I dislike MHL and b) where I said it was because of his political views.

If he's colorblind, why does he need to use the word "white" in describing them? Unless we are talking about a physical description of them (and his article does no such thing) why is their color relevant? I thought we were all equal?
