the city's mayor michael nutter called the article pathetic, uninformed essay that allowed the authorception of african-americans as an ethnic group that in its entirety is lazy, shiftless, irresponsible and largely criminal. i spoke to the editor of the philadelphia magazine tom mcgrath earlier and asked him to respond to that allegation by the mayor. >> i think the mayor has mischaracterized what the story is about. the writer went and talked to some white people in a certain neighborhood in philadelphia. they got their views on race. a number of those views were incredibly ugly and bigoted. a number of others were incredibly empathetic. the writer's own views on this are certainly not bigoted in any way. so i'm not sure why the mayor is describing the story the way he has been. >> he also brought another example up that stood out to me when he goes into the wala. he was saying in this neighborhood, the neighborhood about which he wrote the story, he holds the door for black people at the wala longer than he would for white people and he writes about that saying on one level such se

and surely mayor nutter has better things to do right now. philadelphia has bigger problems than a foolish article that was foolishly titled. if they had called the article something about one neighborhood's problems or some white people have retrograde attitudes, it would have been fine. but being white in philadelphia and they're going to define this based upon the comments of an emigre who says that all black people spend their time smoking marijuana and popping out babies, yeah, that's pretty offensive. >> i think we all kinof agree with that. i w rnd everyone read it and share your opinion, whether you think it's racist, inappropriate, what you think of the stories within it. thanks very much to michael and camille. >>> "outfront" next, satan and glenn beck.
