Bham NAACP to protest NY Post cartoon
February 26th, 2009
The Birmingham Chapter of the NAACP will have a press conference at 10 a.m. today in Kelley Ingram Park, calling on the local FOX News affiliate to express outrage over this cartoon recently published in the New York Post.
WBRC is part of the Fox News network, which is owned by News Corp. That company also owns the New York Post.
Local NAACP President Hezekiah Jackson said,
We maintain it’s an invitation to the assassination of the 44th president. The NAACP as the largest and oldest civil rights organization is asking the Fox Corporation to terminate the cartoonist, the editor-in-chief and increase diversity in their newsrooms.
