Talk about living a fantasy. The Fox News channel has developed a reputation for displaying Barbie-like white women as newscasters more than any network news station in the business. Not only are they pin-up poster-women, but with all their supposed education, that education is wasted on the nations gossip.

Because Fox News is supposedly the conservative channel for conservative America, they have to present a conservative image to its viewers or they will not have any viewers, because their viewers expect a certain conservative standard.

To do this and remain politically correct, they have to appease the politically correct mainstream regulations by hiring women as opposed to men. This is Fox’s noble way of staying politically correct.

They may cringe at the thought of hiring women, so when they do, they make sure that if they are going to, they would rather deal with the Barbie-type and not the librarian type. No way, however, have they taken the Barbie test – choosing between the Black or Asian Barbie and the white Barbie.

If they have, they failed miserably because there are no Black Barbies working for Fox News, and if there is, they are either well hidden or Barbie-like themselves. Instead, they have these standardized long haired, slim figured, pointy nose white women on display. These women come from east coast universities and are ‘good ole boy’ approved.

They are condescending, arrogant, subtle racist women who socialize with conservative white boys at the end of the day telling Black, Iraqi, and Jewish jokes during the Fox News happy hour. This may seem mean and judgmental, but be sure that it is not far from the truth. Furthermore, how untrue could it be when the obvious is displayed nationwide everyday?

Will this change soon? No. Newscasters will remain majority white because that is the norm in America. Not only white, but Barbie-like, arrogant, and condescending toward the lower and low-middle class. They will continue to mock, humiliate, and undermine the lower-class by speaking to the viewers as if everyone watching owns stock, a second home, and has A-1 credit.

What is more shameful about this country is that the privileged class attend high-priced universities, are then catapulted to corporate and high-profiled jobs such as anchor people, are supposedly educated in world matters, IQ tested in problem solving, and then place before a camera as an informer for the nations public, and instead of reporting what people really need to know, they are experts for reporting on the antics of movie stars and starlets’ lifestyles.

What a waste of human energy and manpower. No pun intended.
