Fox: Left 'has always disliked the concept of Christianity'
David Edwards and Muriel Kane
Published: Friday September 28, 2007



Fox News is currently expressing indignation over a gay block party in San Francisco that is using a leather-bar parody of the Last Supper in its advertising.

Over the headings "War on Christians" and "Anti-Christian Crusade," Fox spoke to radio shock jock "Mancow" Muller about the ad. "What a disgrace," Mancow told Fox. "Can you imagine if, let's say, your local Baptist Church did something that parodied the gay community? It would be the end of the world."

"This is a small part of a big, huge attack by the left on Christianity, which has always disliked the concept of Christianity, " complained Fox host Andrew Napolitano. "When these things are out there, nobody complains about them except maybe on a talk show like us. Why not?"

"It's a huge cultural battle going on," explained Mancow, contrasting Mad TV, Joni Mitchell, Sinead O'Connor, and Kathy Griffin with his own refusal to make fun of any religion except Islam. "I don't make fun of religion. I don't think you go there. I don't believe the Islamofascists -- that's not a religion, that's a weird thing going on there, so that's different." After 9/11, Mancow drew criticism for his "Burning Mosques," a parody of the Elvis Presley song "Burning Love."

1. oh g-d, that Mancow person
is fairly new to me, he's on a new AM station out here. but i understand he has been around for awhile.

a cult is a cult is a cult, and the ancient ones all have their share of G-d approved violence in their "holy" books. i really dislike ppl who think that Islam is okay to take shots at, because of their whacked-out fundies that get all the press. G-d knows every cult has its whacked-out fundies, and i don't see very much difference (if any at all) between Islam nutters going on about killing the infidels, and Xian nutters going on about how 9/11/01 happened because of the feminists.

2. Yuck!
His ratings have been dropping off for years, so now he's courting the Fox Noise crowd to try to pump up an audience. Pathetic!

3. 3 years ago he was screaming "it's NOT about oil" on Fox's
Insanity and Colmes. Guess he has no respect for Alan Greenspan either.

4. Crazier than a bedbug.
More like Manic-Cow. If listening more than 30 seconds isn't exhausting enough, hit the mute button sometime and just watch him.

Haven't seen him for a long time, almost forgot he even existed.
