Actually Obama and other liberals have often spoken about this subject. I remember hearing something similar on NPR of all places.

Many conservatives around here are just too invested in their own media to take notice so I agree with the OP in that since it wasn't/isn't on Fox News, you don't pay attention.

Interestingly to me, many liberals pay attention to Fox News, so they know what you all are consuming. They all follow Trump on social media and read/watch internet sites related to conservatives. Seems conservatives are less likely to do this versus liberals - seek to get the other side's POV directly from the other side. You all wait for your media to tell you what (they think) the other side said and due to that you get a very skewed view of liberals.

I couldn't watch the vid, but if he's picking on the PC culture then good on him. I was never a fan of his, I think he was pretty ineffective, but kudos to him for being honest, if he indeed was.

I have no problem saying something good about a political leader if he gets something right. The blind hatred on both sides for the opposite political leader is something that should be chilled out a bit and people need to use their common sense when necessary and drop the partisan crap.

I think if Obama mentioned the word "SJW", this speech would have gone more viral.

When Obama is right, he is right. I agree with him on this issue.
