The article itself is not really newsworthy. It must have been a slow day. What I find amusing is that the short on-air piece can be summed up with, "Redneck is biased against blacks, officials think it's not cool". A short read of the text show this guy probably re-posted a "memo" poking "fun" at black, latino, and Muslims and city hall seems to think it is hilarious.

Gladys Wilson, who has defended Sims before, said the commissioner has a great sense of humor and wouldn't aim insults specifically at any ethnic group. She called the Facebook post a "light-hearted joke."
sigh - still not news worthy considering the demographics but funny in that Cooper City is right next door to Weston - home of Debbie Wasserman Schultz...
