Is the reporter racist or is the article worthy of Fox News? Could he have used a better adverb than "mumble"? Maybe. But I wasn't there to hear if the Governor mumbled or not. Maybe, to the reporter, the Governor's Native language just sounds like mumbling.

To me, based upon this one article, I do not believe David Garcia is racist or should be working for Fox News. It does leads me to think that he does not know what the Governor had in his fingers or what he said- or at least he has the good sense in not writing about it.

"as pueblo Gov. Ronald Tenorio opens up a black pouch, takes a pinch of something inside and sprinkles in on the asphalt in front of him. He then chants and mumbles a prayer in the Keres language."

What kind of racist, FOX News reporting is this? Does Monsignor Alire Garcia throw water at people and chant, mumble his prayers at the Cathedral?

"Takes a pinch of something", "mumbles a prayer", this is cutting-edge progressive media, New Mexico Independent? Not even close!!

Benny Shendo would be a great representative for the 3rd Congressional District. Joe Monahan and the main stream media would do a great service to the people of the 3rd CD and the state by highlighting Benny Shendo's stance on the issues.
