THE ORANGE CLUB CONDEMNS BOB BECKEL’S RACIST COMMENTS, CALLING FOR HIS
IMMEDIATE DISMISSAL FROM FOX NEWS
Irvine, California, July 13, 2014 – During "The Five" program aired on
Thursday July 10, 2014 on Fox News, Mr. Bob Beckel stated, "Chinese are the
single biggest threat to the national security of the U.S. … Do you know
what we just did? As usual, we bring them over here and teach a bunch of
Chinamen – err, Chinese people – how to do computers and then they go back
to China and hack into us." He later went on saying: "There are billions of
them. And, and all they do is to hack into our stuff. They send these cheap
toys, all of which got lead in it and kill kids." (The video clip can be
viewed at http://youtu.be/jOzXyqxI_vk)
"We are stunned by the blatant racist comments made by Mr. Beckel on a
nationally televised program." Said Mr. Alex Chen, Board Chair of the Club.
"The insulting slur, as well as those who use it recklessly and
conveniently, should deserve no place at Fox News. It is simply deplorable
for Fox News to allow itself to become a platform of such derogatory
outburst. Moreover, Mr. Beckel's comments are a classic example of
stereotyping and racial prejudice that would not only mislead the public
with such groundless accusations, but also obliterate the loyalty and
contributions Chinese immigrants have made to this great nation to date."
Mr. Dennis Song, board member in charge of the Club's Outreach, said, "It
seems to have become a trend and occupational hazard that every time there
is a tension between China and the US, clowns at news outlet would pick on
the underrepresented and poke Chinese American’s in the eye. They need to
be told that there are tens of thousands of Chinese American professionals
working at the best hi-tech companies in this country and producing the most
essential technologies that enable the selfie-driven life style that Mr.
Beckel and his equally ignorant co-hosts and their families enjoy on daily
basis – Yes, if you are smart enough to know what a smart phone is, Mr.
Beckel, every single smart phone in American contains the circuitry designed
by a Chinese American engineer."
The Orange Club calls for immediate dismissal of Mr. Beckel, and a formal
apology by Fox News to Chinese American communities across the country for
the lack of moral standards in its program. We demand that Fox News review
its programs to avoid becoming a venue for racists like Mr. Beckel in the
future.
The Orange Club reserves the right to call for further actions towards Fox
News, and the advertisers whose ads would appear on Fox News programs in
which racially discriminative commentators like Mr. Beckel would appear.
