Maher: "the problem with racism is not Gwyneth Paltrow-the problem with racism is Matt Drudge"

Bill Maher: "The Problem With Racism Is Matt Drudge"


"I would just like to say, the problem with racism is not Gwyneth Paltrow, the problem with racism is Matt Drudge," HBO's Bill Maher said on his "Real Time" show

"I picked from Matt Drudge's website, this is just over a month. We monitored this," Maher said.

Maher then proceeded to show several images of public black figures such as athletes, religious leaders, politicians that appeared on the Drudge Report.

"This is racism in America," Maher declared.

One of mayors guests on his panel, Democratic strategist Karen Finney, furthered Maher's position by claiming the Drudge Report's coverage of a reporter interrupting President Obama in the rose garden is racist.
