Australian American business magnate, Rupert Murdoch, has made comments suggesting that President Barack Obama isn't a 'real black president'.
US President, Barack Obama
Murdoch who is the founder of the global News Corp. media empire, was praising Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson and his wife on Twitter Wednesday evening when he wrote: "Ben and Candy Carson terrific. What about a real black President who can properly address the racial divide?"
Later, Murdoch recommended a New York magazine article asking whether Obama has done enough for the African-American community.
Murdoch is the founder of Fox News Channel, and News Corp's publications including The New York Post and The Wall Street Journal.
The 84-year-old Murdoch has praised Carson on Twitter before, calling him "irreproachable on background, achievements, character, vision."
