Rupert Murdock's Fox News is known for its far right views. Some of its hosts are notorious for their extreme ideas. Bob Beckel is perhaps one of the worst.

On July 10, he ranted about "The Five," saying "the Chinese are the single biggest threat to the national security of the U.S. Do you know what we just did? As usual, we bring them over here and teach a bunch of Chinamen -- err Chinese people -- how to do computers and then they go back to China and hack back into us."
He was not attacking some, but all Chinese. "One pole overturns the boat with everybody in it," as the Chinese saying goes.
This was not the first time he had an outburst against the Chinese. In 2013, he said on "The Five" that he had gone swimming, and afterward his "eyes blew up" and it made him "look Oriental."
He surely does not hide his animosity against the Chinese.
His racial slur, calling Chinese "Chinamen," caused a Twitter firestorm and prompted Democrat U.S. Congresswoman Judy Chu, Congressman Mike Honda, and California State Senator Ted Lieu to make statements calling for his resignation.
