One such source is Steve Sailer.
For those of you that are not familiar with Mr. Sailer - he is a columnist for the American Conservative magazine. Last year he wrote that some whites who support Obama aren’t driven primarily by a desire for change. […]
“So many whites want to be able to say, ‘I’m not one of them, those bad whites. … Hey, I voted for a black guy for president"
“They hope that when a black finally moves into the White House, it will prove to African-Americans, once and for all, that white animus isn’t the cause of their troubles. All blacks have to do is to act like President Obama - and their problems will be over.”
A sampling of some of Sailer's beauties:
– African-Americans: “tend to possess poorer native judgment than members of better-educated groups. Thus they need stricter moral guidance from society”
– Obama's 'Blackness': “the brutal truth: Obama is a 'wigger'. He’s a remarkably exotic variety of the faux African-American, but a wigger nonetheless.”
– Michelle Obama: “sounds like she’s got a log-sized chip on her shoulder from lucking into Princeton due to affirmative action.”
– Katrina Victims: “Nor is it surprising that the black refugees at the Superdome and the convention center failed to get themselves organized to make conditions more livable. Poor black people seldom cooperate well with each other because they don’t trust other blacks much, for the perfectly rational reason that they commit large numbers of crimes against each other.”
Several of Sailer’s comments appeared on the site VDARE, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has classified as a white nationalist hate group.
How the hell could CNN use Sailer as a source when he has a history of repeatedly made racially insensitive remarks? *Shame on you CNN.*
Oh and if you want to send good old Steve a message - here is his blog.

CNN is appearing awfully racist itself with its recent pejorative reports on African-Americans. Someone wrote in a comments section of the CNN website:
"ellesgee, no this is not the first time this made the news, but apparently CNN is on a role with pejorative headlines about "blacks" in the U.S. it does not take a genius to link the sudden reports of the "horribleness and weirdness of black america" as a counterbalance to obama's potential positive effect on the image and morale of "blacks" in the U.S. intentional or not, CNN is not taking responsibility for what and how it reports "facts". the recent reports have been monitored and documented, the proper media appropriateness authorities have been notified, and abc is putting together a report to bring this issue to light. turn off CNN."
I believe that people often don't realize the effect the media has on public opinion. There could in fact be someone or others at CNN (maybe linked to the racist that was cited) who is intentionally reporting negatively about blacks in the U.S. to subversively negate the image using Obama as a platform for its subtle black bashing.
