Talk show host to white supremacist: “Sweetheart, you have a little black in you”

Day time talk show host Trisha Goddard recently delivered hard results to self-described white supremacist Craig Cobb in the form of DNA testing.

Cobb agreed to have his DNA tested as part of Goddard’s syndicated show. The episode, which is about race in America, is scheduled to air Nov. 18 on the local Fox affiliate.

Turns out Cobb, who is best known for attempting to turn a small North Dakota town into an Aryan enclave, is 86 percent European and 14 percent sub-Saharan African.

“Sweetheart, you have a little black in you,” Goddard, who is black and British, said, announcing the results.

The audience enjoys the irony of it all in a clip posted on YouTube.com.

“So there you go bro,” Goddard says after Cobb made a remark about oil and water not mixing. She offered him a fist pound, but he declined.

Cobb tried to brush the scientific results off as “statistical noise.”

London's Daily Mail later interviewed Cobb.

According to the newspaper, he called the results “short science” used to ‘promote multiculturalism.”

He called Goddard’s show the product of “craven and debased executives,” with a “goal is to shock.”
