He isn't particularly bright. Let's be honest here, he is FOX's token black. NPR canned him for a reason. His comments don't seem to be well thought out, often just contradictory to what the other view is. Nice gig if you can get it.
The other token blacks are Stacy Dash, Harris Faulkner, Lauren Green, Arthel Neville and Kelly Wright just to name few.
Why are liberals so obsessed with skin color.
Every single one of the "token blacks" you mentioned are intelligent, well-spoken people who add a great deal to whatever discussion they are involved in. Faulkner is awesome on OutNumbered and Lauren Green is not just well-versed in her field but a concert-level pianist.
Williams is just an ignorant, uninformed, jerk without class.
