CAPAC Chair Calls for Resignation of Fox TV Host Bob Beckel
Condemns Use of Racial Slur Against Chinese
Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (
CAPAC) Chair Judy Chu (CA-27), called for the resignation of Fox TV host Bob
Beckel in response to xenophobic comments made by the television host.
During a broadcast of The Five on July 10, 2014, Beckel stated that “
Chinese are the single biggest threat to the national security of the U.S….
.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.”
Congresswoman Judy Chu released the following statement:
“The racist comments of Fox host Bob Beckel are utterly outrageous. He
condemns an entire ethnic group as being threats to national security and
uses racial slurs while doing so.
“The implications go far beyond the Chinese community by promoting a
culture of intolerance that has no place in our society. Unfortunately, the
Asian American and Pacific Islander community knows all too well the dangers
of these xenophobic views. All we have to do is look to the fear mongering
and hysteria of the 1980s that resulted in the murder of Vincent Chin by two
white unemployed autoworkers to see how tragedy can occur when racism and
xenophobia are tolerated.
“As a Chinese American, I am deeply offended by Bob Beckel’s comments and
call for his immediate resignation.”
