Rush Limbaugh Influence In The Mass Media

Racial superiority of whites was an ideology deeply ingrained, but the Democratic Party understood that it would be crucial to their campaign to “fan [the ember of bigotry] to full flame” (6). The major theme of the campaign became a mission to save white supremacy from “Negro domination.” Black men are portrayed as heinous and savage creatures that target the pure image of white women.

A Netflix TV show, Dear White People produced by Justin Simien, is about the students of Winchester University. This show tends to target not only the Netflix customers, but the black and white audience as well; the entire first season generally focuses on the media, racial, and gender roles within the community as well as the mainstream problem of the unrecognized white privilege by white skinned people. Looking up who the producer is, it turns out that Simien is a black-skinned man. Therefore, he fully understands the politics and the human behavior towards the black race from the white race (considering racism towards people with his skin color has been around for so long). Being black-skinned is already clear for many people to assume that he probably has dealt with the racism majority of his life, considering the repeating themes throughout the show. Even with the title, the producer is purposefully calling out to the specific audiences in a straightforward way. According to some reviews, many have concluded that Dear White People is extremely offensive to them. While watching the show, there were a few significant and periodic themes that showed throughout the first season and the major themes I chose were important how the roles of media played throughout the show. As a result, the roles of the media within the show reveals that people tend to communicate to the public of who they they really are as a person by showing what they want the public to see them as: in a

The idea of the Angry White which was raised in the dialogue helped shed light on my understanding of why Trump is gaining so many supporters. This discussion was actually the first time I have ever heard the term “Angry White”. According to Oxford English Dictionary, an angry white male is a derogatory reference to a white male holding what is viewed as a typically conservative viewpoint, especially in the context of U.S. politics, characterized by opposition to feminism, racial quotas, political

Last year, Yiannopoulos was permanently banned from Twitter for his role in a campaign of racist, sexist harassment directed at Leslie Jones, a “Saturday Night Live” cast member. When Twitter suspended his account, Yiannopoulos denounced it as “cowardly” and declared himself a martyr for the cause of free speech. Twitter, he said, was “a no-go zone for conservatives.” The tacit admission that Yiannopoulos sees targeted abuse of a female African-American comedian as “conservative” is revealing, if only in that it strips away the fig leaf of euphemism separating the alt-right from the hive of racism and sexism that defined last year’s Presidential election. That it was the Berkeley College Republicans who invited him to campus further supported this association. No chemistry department would extend an invitation to an alchemist; no reputable department of psychology would entertain a lecture espousing phrenology. But amid the student conservatives at Berkeley—and along the lecture circuit where he is a sought-after speaker—Yiannopoulos’s toxic brew of bigotries apparently meets their standard for credibility. And this recognition is as big a problem as anything he has said in his talks or in his erstwhile existence as a Twitter troll.

I used a liberal website known as www.salon.com for an article. As the article headline presents, “Donald Trump has dropped the GOP’s is Mask” written by Alexandria Clinton the and Walkins Ali. They stayed under the Trump Administration the GOP has been unmasked on the racism they convey. They write, “post-civil rights GOP is our largest why identity group maybe we should thank Trump for making it so obvious.” The liberal point of view expressed the evidence on the racism that still lives in the GOP under and with the help of Trump the “curtains” have been withdrawn to expose the racism in that community. Because the GOP is concise of wealthy white Americans and their long history with race issue the Liberals are not surprised they are some hidden racial bias. As they stated, “Donald Trump is the preferred candidate of white supremacists. Online and in other spaces, they have anointed him their champion in the 2016 presidential race.”They are evidence in instances where white supremacist have supported Trump or endorse him. even though he does not acknowledge their endorsement end specifies “The Reform Party now includes a Klansman, Mr. Duke, a neo-Nazi, Mr. Buchanan, and a communist, Ms. Fulani. This is not company I wish to keep,” Trump said in a statement reported then by The New York Times. …” The Liberals have expressed that with Trump in his outrageous statements and brought up confidence within

In their article, Polemic of Hate: How Mainstream Political Discourse Fueled the Growth in White Supremacy 2007-2012, authors Hicks and Hicks set out to show how the hate-filled political rhetoric during the election and presidency of President Obama increase the memberships to white supremacy groups. Hicks and hicks also bring attention to how their [white supremacy group’s] increase popularity allows them to make donations to political parties and campaigns, furthering their membership expansion. This article covers the various groups that have contribute to far right-wing campaigns thought to take over the political climate by inciting the public, creating smear campaigns, and using scare tactics to get the masses against our first biracial

In November of 2008, Barack Obama became the first African-American man to take oval office in a historical feat, beating out Senator John McCain. Supporters rejoiced, and the haters boy did they hate. Upon Obama’s election, radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh openly stated “I hope he fails”. U.S. Senator Mitch

In “A Rebel, a Warrior and a Race Fiend” (2017), Charles Blow affirms that Donald Trump is not on the side of the country; he is allied with the white supremacists, white nationalists racists, and the hostiles. Blow intensifies his initial claim by referencing the National Anthem and the NFL kneeling controversy, and then stating his opinion on the situation and Trump’s actions toward it. He does this in order to reveal the true nature of what Trump is doing to the country, “With every passing day, Trump diminishes the office of the presidency and elevates a virulent strain of racial animus.” Blow is indubitably addressing the entire public because he opens and closes the article with two very blatantly negative statements against Donald Trump;

Moreover, Trump is not the first republican president to base his politics upon racist fears but the term, “Southern strategy.” was instead popularized by political strategists like Richard Nixon and Kevin Philips in the 1960s. With the enforcement of The Voting Rights Act, many Negroes were registering as Democrats in the South as the majority of whites who were Negrophobe started quitting the Democrats and realigning with the republicans. In this case scenario, the Whites are seen moving to Republican Party because of the blacks’ registration as democrats otherwise without this change of events the whites would be very comfortable with their old comfortable arrangement with the local democrats. Revelation by Philips that racism resulted in political profits led to politicians like

The changing demographics of the United States have also contributed to this rise in what I guess I might call "neo-white-supremacy." A great deal of the white population in America (particularly male, and politically conservative) see their voting base and, therefore, power base, is dwindling, and they view this election as a kind of last stand against what they perceive to be the browning, the liberalizing, and the feminizing of the country.

Bill O’Reilly is the author of Killing Kennedy, and he wrote the book in 2012. O’Reilly was born in 1949 in New York City and later graduated from Marist College with a degree in history in the 1970s. Bill then taught high school for many years before going back to college to get a masters degree in journalism. Starting in the 1980s, O’Reilly began working in television becoming a correspondent for many different news stations. In the 1990s, Bill went back to school this time at Harvard to get a degree in public administration. Shortly after this O’Reilly began his own show on Fox News and years later began his own radio talk show. In the past few years Bill has written a number of books that were about different parts of history including Killing Lincoln and Killing Kennedy. Since Bill O’Reilly has a background in history and even a degree in history so that makes him even more qualified to write a book on John F. Kennedy and his presidency. Also at the time of the Kennedy presidency O’Reilly was alive and an aware citizen of society. Since Bill O’Reilly lived through this part of history this makes him even more qualified to write about this time in America.

Racial resentment among white voters was particularly convinced by the Republican political strategy that stoked white racial resentment to win elections. “Trump’s campaign can best be described as hateful and the Southern Strategy, by keeping people separated which is how the Republican Party has deployed for a half-century to shore up its support in the states which is mostly rn by racial resentment and white solidarity,” Republicans fueled voters, with lies, racism, and division leading up to the 2016 election.

The book is about a series of events starting from the American Civil War and lasting to the final days of John Wilkes Booth’s plans to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln at the Ford’s Theatre. Author, Bill O’Reilly is attempting to correct the misleading assumptions and alleged conspiracies that had taken place leading up to the events of Lincoln’s assassination and explain in detail the scenarios and what a ruthless person Booth really was. O’Reilly wrote the book to provide us the history of this war and how it changed after the death of Lincoln.

The media are the founder of Trump presidency. I don't think Trump would have been elected to be our next president, if the media had never gave him the free coverage in the beginning; they planted a seed for Trump to grow in the general election, and I'm sicken by all of the media coverage he has gotten. The media seemed to have normalized Trump, and didn't do enough of good job to stop Trump, from being elected.
