Klaus Emmerich, Former Editor-in-Chief of Austria's ORF Says Western World Shouldn't be Directed by Black Man

I read about this yesterday and I was appalled, to say the least, but I was not really surprised. According to Klaus Emmerich, a former editor-in-chief of the Austrian broadcaster ORF's news and current affairs service, said, "I do not want the western world being directed by a black man. And if you say this is a racist remark, I say you are damn right it is."

This idiot also said Obama's election was "a highly disturbing development" because "blacks are not as far advanced in the civilization process nor in their political progress."Emmerich, 80, has worked as a reporter for 61 years and also said Obama is a "talented man, but a branded man" referring to his skin color.

Of course, ORF bosses disassociated themselves from Emmerich's remarks but have refused to ban him from future work. They have merely said they are still reviewing the situation. Right.
