From The NSP News Service: Now, isn't this a cute story. For ages, Jewish economic interests have made a massive broo-hah-hah in defensive of minority rights, privileges and perks of all kinds. Yet here we show a bird of a different chirp, for certain. The Jews, as exemplified by the flap over the cover of Bloomberg Business Week, get a bit of their own medicine, in the form of being called "racist" themselves. Well, how does that feel, Jewish fat-cats? Now, the "beast to which you have given birth" is starting to turn on YOU! Perhaps this comes as no serious threat to Jewish ZOG interests, but just give it time! Blacks and other minorities will not continuously serve as your lap-dog lackeys, to be helped when convenient in accord with your own interests.
No, the NSP does not see a serious rift here -- yet. Nor do we suggest that American society is on the brink of a race war. BUT let's ALL remember that the true source of cultural discontent of whatever type lies squarely at the feet of Jewish special interests. Sometimes, we tend to concentrate on "deflective issues" such as "Black discontent," "illegal immigration," and so forth, while losing track of the poorly hidden fact -- to anyone who is thinking perhaps -- that the basic source of ALL American and European ills is, as was said in The Third Reich, "The Jew." Take away the Jewish equation, and a great deal of cultural ills will rapidly diminish! Let's remember, then, where the TRUE PROBLEM LIES: AT THE FEET OF JEWISH WORLD PROVOCATEURS!

Bloomberg Businessweek under fire for 'racist' cover
The magazine depicts minorities in a house filled with cash. Sadly, the mortgage crisis disproportionally affected minority homebuyers.
Bloomberg Businessweek has caused an uproar for using offensive stereotypes of minorities to illustrate a story on the housing rebound.
The magazine has expressed regret over the cover of last week's issue, which featured images of minorities, including a barefoot black man with exaggerated features, grabbing wads of cash in a house overflowing with money.
An African-American woman with large lips is shown feeding a dog. In other rooms of the house, Latino women are grabbing and holding cash. The cover features this headline: "The Great American Housing Rebound. Flips. No-look bids. 300 percent returns. What could possibly go wrong?"
Reaction on Twitter was scathing. Matt Yglesias of Slate wrote: "If you like your business news spiced up with racism, turn to the latest @businesweek cover." Forbes' Jeff Bercovici added: "What can everyone who had anything to do with this Businessweek cover have been thinking?"
The Huffington Post described the cover as "racist chic."
Writing on the website of the Columbia Journalism Review, Ryan Chittum noted that minorities were targeted by predatory lenders responsible for part of the housing bubble. Many who qualified for conventional mortgages were pushed into risky, high-cost, subprime loans, a fact that the Businessweek cover fails to point out.
"In other words, minority borrowers were disproportionately victimized in the bubble," he writes. "But Businessweek here has them on the cover bathing in housing-ATM cash, implying that they’re going to create another bubble. That’s not okay."
Josh Tyrangiel, Bloomberg Businessweek's editor-in-chief, expressed regret over the uproar. "Our cover illustration last week got strong reactions, which we regret," he wrote in a statement sent to Politico. "Our intention was not to incite or offend. If we had to do it over again we'd do it differently."
The artist reportedly behind the image, Andres Guzman, writes on his Tumblr page that he "was asked to make an excited family with large quantities of money."
Both the NAACP and the National Association of Black Journalists had no immediate comment.
