The conservative cable news network spent Tuesday melting down over a decision to pull six books over "hurtful" racist imagery. But as Timothy Burke points out, Fox News personalities used to attack Dr. Seuss books.
Should I actually look it up and see if it is ACTUALLY ""hurtful" racist imagery".
I seriously doubt it.
I've been LIED to so many times by the nutjob left Commies.
I looked it up. I bet im the only one that did.
What the fuss is about is:
1) a picture of a china man in traditional dress with slitty eyes
2) an african native running around in a grass skirt.
Wow you actually did some research . . . What are you NEW?! Facts don’t belong on this site mister!
shareNo, he's attacking The Lorax movie. The Lorax was written in 1971 during the Hippy Infestation of California. It's one of dozens, so FNC did NOT rail against the "books"!
sharePeople who consider Fox News' views on things "conservative" are just about clueless.
shareWhy doesn't Fox News show the racist Dr. Seuss images that were pulled amid its three days covering the "cancel culture" controversy?

Thursday was the third straight day that the Dr. Seuss controversy was the "1A" story on Fox News. "The network has for days been railing against what it depicts as the latest example of 'cancel culture,' a condition in which oversensitive people, generally liberals, take great offense at something innocuous and cause that thing to be censored," says The Washington Post's Phillip Bump. "Fox News and its allies on the political right have focused on this purported scourge for months, encapsulating, as it does, both the opportunity to present the left as thin-skinned and to stoke the 'what is America coming to' sensibilities of its core audience. That example? A decision by the estate of children’s book author Dr. Seuss to cease publication of six books that contain racist depictions of African and Asian people. The Washington Post isn’t showing the images for obvious reasons, but they can be seen elsewhere. But you know who else has avoided showing the images? Fox News. Instead, the network’s coverage is heavy on B-roll footage in which cameras pan across Seuss titles seen on bookstore shelves. Here, for example, is how the books were depicted in a segment that aired on America’s Newsroom on Tuesday. None of the books shown there are among the ones the Seuss estate has pulled from publication. In fact, neither the hosts of the show nor the guest — Fox Nation personality Tyrus — appear to be familiar with the images themselves."
