Bloodshed? Blame Fox
I fear that Fox Media's continued skewing of Muslim issues will result in bloodshed in some form or another. They may have freedom of speech, but they should also be held accountable for the results of their incindiary rhetoric.

I have a friend who watches Fox as though they speak right out of God's mouth. I've known her for a long time, and she has changed so much since she started watching them. I don't think people realize just how dangerous their propaganda is.

All of his TV commentators follow his opinion or they woudn't be there. They all sound alike.

3. you'd think that Faux News is the gospel of the Lord
it is nothing but a bunch of garbage intertwined with lies lies lies. So sad to see that so many people live by their dictum.

They are pretty stupid IMO. The consequences of believing in such unrefined crap is indeed frightening I agree.

Underwritten by Saudis.

6. Fox news is a pile of B.S.
I know it and you know it. Those that watch it believe it. They don't care to hear the truth about it as you state. Fox is unAmerican IMO. Spreading lies and trying to incite violence on a worldwide scale is evil!
