To any person that thinks faking 'empathy' for slavery means you understand the foundation of this countries origin you'll be offended by this tweet. In 1711 slaves were the first asset to be sold or rented/leased on WALL STREET. Can't say I'm surprised by Fox news airing this.

h_conover Too little too late. The human expectation is that nobody would have even imagined that comparison existed.

Morons. Few other words would be adequate.

foxnews Too late!

Liberals hate facts...

How insensitive can you be? Idiots.

foxandfriends Just like Trump ignorant. POTUS

If it's bullish, it's good!

Fox news are in with us central bankers who juiced the market in the first place amid the disease, unemployment and social unrest.

WTF. Idiots!

Apology accepted so long as they atone for their sins by shutting down their network entirely and forever.

Nice fish

What crazy propaganda

Too late, we now know what they care about most... 💵 Forget Feedom and Constitutional Republic as long as the market is going up!

Crazy Fox News

Not what they were doing of course but carry on....

That was a really sad racist comment on all levels👹👹👹👹

They are sorry they got caught.

Trash

But they also said that it was merely missing 'context'. Another non-apology apology.

What? They revealed Wall Street’s wet dream? The truth shall set you free. AFRICA24TV XHNews BBCWorld 20minutesOnline

Maybe compare it to the reduction in crime.

The Great market rebound continues!

I don't think it is real apology. That graph is the sounds of Wall street and laughing at raciest movement from Trump administrators. The real problem is'The rich get richer and the poor get poorer'

cc dollarsanddata

What intern lets this get by the adults at Fox

Apologizes? laughable....they don't see black folks are human beings...and nor will they in the future.....so this? hey, this little faux pas? paper it over, and follow it up with some story about black anarchists

Def and interesting statistic, fucked up, but interesting 🤔

Fox News is the new KKK!

How did they think this was even okay to do? Oh nevermind. It’s fox news

Pretty interesting statistic tho.

This is not enough. The CEO of FoxNews needs to resign immediately for distributing racist information from Day 1.
