Bob Z  has misapplied a technical term.
 
 
Look I think it's totally disingenuous to pretend right wing hate radio  
doesn't play the racist card or anti gay card or whatever card is useful  
every chance they get. This is disturbing enough but that so few (if any)  
conservatives condemn this crap is even more distrubing.  If I were a  
conservative I wouldn't want this kind of thing associated with my political  
philosophy. Of course the race card is very powerful, especially in red states  
where,  while racism isn't so much out in the open it still seethes under  the 
surface of white voter thinking. It's not that I think faux news,  that  is 
the murdock puppet show,  really cares one way or the other about  racism, 
they just understand how useful it is. I don't care where this  originated  
from some  other source, this is clear and open use of  racism for a political 
end and to deny it does it no credit to conservatives.  BTW the only actual 
liberal media are low circulation publications like  the nation or mother 
Jones and so on, all the rest are part of the corporate  media, ditto NYT)
