Most people have probably seen this already, but it gives me pleasure posting it because... I'm still waiting for my FIRST "white privilege moment.....


CNN Analyst's Interview Goes Bad When She Accuses Black Fox Host of 'White Privilege'
This is what happens when you're guided by racial rhetoric and race baiting instead of common sense -- you end up looking really, really bad.

Listen: CNN Analyst's Interview Goes Bad When She Accuses Black Fox Host of 'White Privilege'
In a disastrous interview this week, CNN analyst Areva Martin accused Sirius XM and Fox Nation host David Webb of benefiting from “white privilege,” failing to realize that Webb is black.

Martin and Webb were having a discussion on Webb’s radio show Tuesday about what makes someone qualified for certain jobs.

Webb explained that when applying for jobs, he considered relevant experience more important than his skin color.

Instead of making an actual argument, she accused Webb of benefiting from “white privilege.” But that was a mistake.

“How do I have the privilege of white privilege?” Webb asked.

“David, by virtue of being a white male you have white privilege,” Martin said.

Then Webb cleared up Martin’s awkward assumption.

“Areva, I hate to break it to you, but you should’ve been better prepped. I’m black,” Webb said.


“I stand corrected,” Martin said.

The CNN analyst silently listened for the next few moments while Webb slammed her for making “insulting” assumptions about him.

“You come with this assumption and go with white privilege, that’s actually insulting,” Webb said.

Martin attempted to apologize, but it’s hard to get past such an offensive accusation.


“The whole white privilege thing is insulting,” Webb reiterated.

Martin apologized for her mistake, but unfortunately, she never adequately explained her point about “white privilege.”

If Martin believed Webb received his position in Fox News because he was “white,” I wonder how she would explain how he got the position after finding out he’s black.
