Looks like at least some black folk are getting wise to Sharpton’s race-baiting money-grubbing horseshit.
===========================
MSNBC contributor Al Sharpton has found himself on the receiving end of a racial discrimination lawsuit.
The National Association of African-American Owned Media filed suit Friday in Los Angeles against Comcast and Time Warner, accusing them of discriminating against black-owned media companies, and asking for $20 billion in damages. The two media giants are in the process of seeking regulatory approval to merge.
How does Sharpton fit in? The Hollywood Reporter explains that when Comcast acquired NBCUniversal in 2010, it entered into a “memoranda of understanding with the NAACP, the National Urban League and the National Action Network,” but that there was a little something extra in it for Sharpton:
“The lawsuit goes on to say that Comcast made large cash “donations” to obtain support for its acquisition. The money includes $3.8 million to Sharpton and his National Action Network. The money, it’s charged, was meant to pay Sharpton to endorse the NBCU deal and divert attention away from discrimination.
As for Sharpton’s MSNBC gig, the complaint says, ‘Despite the notoriously low ratings that Sharpton’s show generates, Comcast has allowed Sharpton to maintain his hosting position for more than three years in exchange for Sharpton’s continued public support for Comcast on issues of diversity.’”
Sharpton denies the allegations, telling THR that his show has not continued because of any payback for his support on racial issues:
“…he believes he has the most successful show in the 6 p.m. hour at MSNBC, ‘the numbers speak for themselves.’”
A spokesperson for the National Action Network responded:
“‘National Action Network has not been served with any papers and considers this claim frivolous,’ says a spokesperson. ‘If in fact we were to be served, we would gladly defend our relationship with any company as well as to state on the record why we found these discriminatory accusations made by said party to be less than credible and beneath the standards that we engage in.’”
Comcast did not respond in detail, but said they will “defend vigorously against the scurrilous allegations in this complaint.”

The Department of Justice has finally announced that they will not file any charges against George Zimmerman for the fatal shooting of the Travon “Obama could have been my dad” Martin.
Have you noticed that most of the liberal media show pictures of Martin or Brown when they were 10 years old. Making it look like they were innocent children.
I really like Al Sharpton, he’s one of my main weapons I employ when pounding the shit out of Liberals. Al Sharpton is proof positive Liberals and their left leaning media outlets, such as MSNBC, are absolutely insane. You can spend a lifetime trying to find a Libtard who will defend Rev. Al and realize it’s a bridge to far.
Al Sharpton like the other race hustlers are nothing but Thieves. They black mail these media companies. This is one reason you see black faces in almost every advertisements whether on tv or in magazines.I gotten to point of watching very little tv.It just to Damn politically correct.
Stuck, I wonder if any charges will be filed against low-life thug Zimmerman for domestic battery, or for any other violent action he has committed in his frequent runs-in with the law.
Don’t kid yourself about this little thug retard. Martin was a low-life but this loser is not a bit better, and I expect that at some point, his thuggery will catch up with him, and he’ll end up on a steel table or in jail. Hopefully the former, given the way we put thugs with violent crime rapsheets longer than Michigan Ave, right back out on the streets, repeatedly.
Yah’ Know What Chicago……neither you or I know ol’ Georgie.but I’d bet after you’ve had the media up your ass for a couple of years,you’ve had to go out in disguises because every libtard in Flowrida wants to ice you and you’ve lost your ability to make a living,it would make you pissed off at the world.
Hos suing the Pimps. Are we really going to buy that?
BukHed, he was a violent, stupid lowlife BEFORE the Martin thing. Frankly, the whole thing looked to me like a fight between two lowlife thug scumbags, and Zimmerman won.
I wouldn’t want either one in my neighborhood. Too many young punks just like them both in this city anyway.
It was the lie of Tawana Brawley in 1987 the brought that fat shithead, now skinny shithead to national notice. He has been a stench upon society ever since. But he is like ‘Teflon Ron’, nothing sticks. Maybe in another life time.
Gorge Zimmerman makes Teflon look like a Velcro pants at a briar party.
Every single charge leveled at him from Florida to Texas were dropped and dismissed.
What blows my mind is he’s not a politician, hes never made large political contributions (bribes) to theParty(TM) and he doesn’t seem to be employed by any of the spy agencies.
I don’t get it.
There are very good reasons this repeatedly-disgraced, hate-Whitey charlatan is so amply rewarded by the Cultural-Marxist- Disinfo Media and our federal Leviathan who turn a blind-eye to his massive tax evasion (just as they do with fellow-shyster Jesse Jackson):
