Fox News apologizes 4 times for Muslim reporting

[Vikrant]

Has fox ever apologized for their lives before?

Ever?

As reported earlier, they are truthful in only 18% of their programming, which is controlled by a Muslim. They're an entertainment network and they fail at that too.

Heck, even their sports coverage is biased. There bias against Giants in last world series was so obvious that it pissed many people in San Francisco off.

Seikhs from Saudi Arabia who are major stock holders in Fox news pulled some strings finally.

No more, fair and balanced....

From now on, it seems, it is going to be unfairly unbalanced. I think another news organization may rise to cater to existing but dissatisfied Fox news viewers.

Al Jazeera....sounds catchy....

They are a good source of non-partisan reporting.

So are BBC and NPR.

Those who think they're "liberal" haven't listened/watched them.

Other good sources are Free Speech TV and LINK.

Al Jazeera is heavily biased. They may not have enough interest in American internal politics to bring out the bias but they are very clearly biased on a host of issues.

If 20 queers were tossed off 50-story rooftops in ten American cities, how do suppose the left would apologize to the Muslims who did the tossing?

Are you insinuating that Faux News is "Left"..........Bwahahaha!

 

[Mertex]

If Faux News would apologize each time they made a false or erroneous comments they wouldn't have time for much else.

There is an audience which wants to know the 'truth' about Islam. This audience will go somewhere else if they do not get it from Fox.

Like Steve?

If a teabagger tried to make a joke about gays, Muslims, and rooftops, and it was pathetically stupid and not a bit funny, would he try to blame Obama for it?

Are there no go zones?

 

[August West]

Geez, next thing you know FOX will be apologizing for the hundreds of lies they told about Benghazi. Or maybe not.

This thread is one big liberal circle-jerk.

Are there no go zones?

Paris Attacks Raise Fears No-Go Zones Are Breeding Grounds for Terrorists
Neighborhoods throughout France that the government has ceded to Muslim control are feared to be breeding grounds for terrorists like those who struck the satirical newsweekly magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris last week, killing 12 people.

"These 'no-go' zones are essentially breeding grounds for radicalism, and it’s a very big problem," Soeren Kern, a senior fellow at the Gatestone Institute, told FoxNews.com. "These are areas where essentially the French government has lost control."

No Go Zone makeaneffort
So here’s the point; Fox News had a contributor on air who stated that France has what are called ‘No Go Zones” where non-muslims are unwelcome and the police do not want to go. The Fox News Haters picked this up for several reasons.

1. They think they have caught Fox News in a Lie they convince themselves Fox News exists to tell. (Keep in mind how I started this post.)

2. France has No Officially Sanctioned ‘No Go Zones’. (True. Nor does any other country to my knowledge. But that’s not what was said.)

3. Fox News folks went as far as pointing on maps where these supposed ‘No Go Zones’ are in France. (They were wrong for the most part.)

The interwebs liberal faction turned this into “Fox said there are No Go Zones where no non-muslims live and the police ‘will NOT go’.”

Now the Gotcha Crowd smells blood and has demanded, and received, apologies from Fox News regarding the ‘misrepresentations’.

But hold on a second! Here’s the part which should be interesting to watch.

‘No Go Zones’ in fact do exist in France. (They also exist in other countries…)

The French call them ZUS or “Sensitive Urban Zones” (Zones Urbaines Sensible) They were established in 1996. And this concern over areas throughout Europe which have reduced police presence and ‘alternative’ law has been a discussion for at least that long.

These are areas that have a high percentage of individuals with values that are ‘slightly different’ from the general population of France.

And they’re Real.

And they have a propensity to be very dangerous.

And the French Police have different criteria for which to determine intervention.

And depending on the day… you may not feel welcome. (For those of you semantically challenged that means “unwelcome”.)

And it may not just be a day, it could be a season… like “Strike Season” which occurs in the fall and had become the traditional period in which everyone who thinks they have something to gain goes on strike. Even the Homeless… I kid you not.

So keep an eye out for this story not to go away.

Fox needs to focus more on getting the facts straight as opposed to propagating lies about Muslims – of course Fox has little interest in the facts, and seems more interested in fanning the flames of unwarranted animosity toward Islam.

You really are a fucking idiot.
So Fox news in the interest of being fair and balanced apologized for some inaccurate remarks about Muslims. At Fox they had the class to admit mistakes had been made. That is the reason FOX is the number one cable news network in the country......and the reason none of the other networks even come close in ratings year after year after year.
The next time any fuck witt LIB on MSNBS does that let us know.

We are dealing with people who think that MSNBC is always telling the truth and Fox is always lying.
It's impossible to reason with such illogical hatred like this.
How dare those uppity Cons have one popular news show on cable. jeez...........
Just like they think Cons want dirty water and to throw grandma over the cliff and starve the children.
It's unbelievable the lies that they believe.

Now if they will only apologize for all the other lies....wait. That would take years!

Lies? You mean like Death panels, Kenyan president, FEMA prisons, and benghazibenghazibenghazi ?

Of course the most egregious of Fox's lies concerns the 'no go zones' myth:

“How we laughed, this weekend when Fox News security ‘expert’ Steve Emerson made his ludicrous claim that Birmingham was a “Muslim-only city”. But strip away the laughter and what remains is a deeply dangerous thesis, rapidly gaining purchase in the US as established fact, that Europe is being progressively colonised by Muslims following some Islamic master plan.

With the repetition of this absurd canard by Nigel Farage yesterday, again on Fox News, it is now clear that this myth is spreading. It has jumped the Atlantic pond and, unless we are very careful, is about to infect our own politics with the same toxic mix of half-truth and downright ignorance.”

The myth of Muslim no-go areas is being used to turn us against one another Talking Politics - Yahoo News UK

Ruperts best friend King Abdulluh was likely very upset.

I doubt Murdoch ever BOWED to King Abdullah.
