Fox News apologizes for false claims about Muslims in Europe. 01/18/15
« on: January 19, 2015, 02:48:13 am »
I found some information that is relevant to a recent conversation on this forum.

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/fox-formally-apologizes-for-claiming-muslims-have-taken-over-european-cities/

“Over the course of this last week we have made some regrettable errors on air regarding the Muslim population in Europe – particularly with regard to England and France,” anchor Julie Banderas said during tonight’s newscast. “This applies especially to discussions of so-called ‘No Go Zones’ areas where non-Muslims allegedly aren’t allowed in and police supposedly won’t go.”

"To be clear, there is no formal designation of these zones in either country… and no credible information to support the assertion that there are specific areas in these countries that exclude individuals based solely on their religion. There are certainly areas of high crime in Europe as there are in the United States and other countries – where police and visitors enter with caution. We deeply regret the errors and apologize to any and all who may have taken offense including the people of France and England."

NBC purposely distorted a tape of George Zimmerman, but liberal activists get Fox News to apologize.

In other words, there really ARE no-go zones, but Ailes won't let you call them no-go zones.

Got it.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

So Fox is lying about their original report being inaccurate?

I guess Fox News is an organization full of Muslim sympathizers now. Though that makes one wonder why the original story would have aired in the first place, and why they don't regularly downplay the threat of extremist Muslims.
