While Dobbs' new program will focus on business, he will have broad latitude to sound off on just about anything. "I'm never shy about dealing with controversial issues," he said.
As the economy increasingly emerged as the country's dominant story, Dobbs pined for a national platform, and sealed the deal with Ailes over the last two weeks. "I think he missed it," Magee said.
Dobbs didn't deny that, saying: "This stuff is in my DNA."
By an interesting coincidence, CNN founder Ted Turner, who hired Dobbs when he launched the Atlanta-based channel in 1980, is booked on Fox Business for Thursday afternoon. I'm told the subject will definitely come up.
Well looks like Ill have a second reason to watch TV news again. Ill have to catch his show, I've always liked Dobbs, just generally a guy you could agree with.
Lou Dobbs' Big Return to TV on Fox Business - The Daily Beast
Lou Dobbs a bigot? Why do you say that?
Because of stuff like this. He tends to walk a fine line, but he goes over from time to time in a totally inappropriate manner.

Liberals never can handle a realistic discussion on race. They prefer the Cliff Huxtable dream world.
What does this even mean????
Read the thread. Dobbs was called a bigot.
So how does one poster using the word bigot then translate into a broader statement about liberals not wanting a realistic discussion on race?
It seems you are jumping from A to Z with nothing in between.
Video clips were provided. Dobbs got "real" about it, and liberals allowed themselves to be offended by his straightforwardness. Minorities in this country have - and mostly create - an abysmal situation for themselves, then cry racism every time someone points out the truth, and beg and expect the government to take on the responsibility and expense of their repeated generational bad decisions.
Yeah. The whole living in slavery thing was all on them and of their own creation.
So what exactly is this "real truth" anyway about minorities that they object to so much?
Yeah. The whole living in slavery thing was all on them and of their own creation.
See, a beautiful example of trying to shut down any honest conversation on race.
Here's a starter for you: Four out of every five black children born in the US today do not have a father listed on the birth certificate. Then they blame the system on the sub-par performance in their school related to suburban "white" schools. When you tell them it's their fault, they cry racism, and the liberals jump to their defense and USE that racism to generate Democratic support with no intent whatsoever to be honest with these voters about the real heart and reason of the issue.

As long as these are the two ends of the spectrum
Conservative complaint: its all their own damn fault because they don't have what it takes to do what it takes.
Liberal complaint: its all the fault of slavery, Jim Crow and racism
there will never be an honest discussion about the problem.
Is it just possible that there is some truth in both positions and the answer lies with acknowledging that and finding solutions which speak to both claims?
Just when you thought FOX had hit the bottom of the barrel - they find a basement underneath.
In the first video he was going to say cotton-pickin'; that's just colloquial speech (maybe not great for use on a national news channel but not racist either-- not anymore anyway). In the 2nd he pointed out that la raza didn't represent all hispanics. How do either of these make him a bigot?
