Jarvis Cocker announced last Monday night (July 21) on stage that he feels the American media is unfair to presidential candidate Barack Obama.

“They’re really taking the piss out of Barack Obama (on the news) and its really not fair”, the singer stated on stage during his performance in Brooklyn at the Music Hall Of Williamsburg.

“What I am saying is kill all those capitalist bastards…and then piss on their ashes”, said Cocker right before performing his hit ‘Cunts Are Still Ruling he World’.

Cocker wrapped up his short tour of the States last Tuesday in New York at Terminal 5.
