Journalist Organization Demands Fox News Apologize For Their “Islamophobia”…
The insanity of the leftist media is beyond belief sometimes. Islam is a religion of hate and murder. Just read the news.
Quote: The Asian American Journalists Association has called on Fox News to apologize for its recent segment on ISIS and the murder of US journalist James Foley.
In a letter posted to the organizations website, AAJA took serious issue with a recent discussion on “The Five” about the violent actions of the terrorist group ISIS. During the segment, co-host Andrea Tantaros spoke about Muslims, Islam and ISIS interchangeably.
“They’ve been doing this for hundreds and hundreds of years if you study the history of Islam,” she said. “This isn’t a surprise. You can’t solve it with a dialogue. You can’t solve it with a summit. You solve it with a bullet to the head.”
AAJA called the comments “alarming,” “inflammatory” and accused the network of perpetuating “Islamophobia.”
“AAJA calls for Tantaros and Fox News to apologize for the irresponsible, inflammatory statements,” the organization said. “We also call on Fox News to discourage its journalists from making blanket comments that serve to perpetuate hate and Islamophobia. Muslims and Islam are not interchangeable terms with terrorists or ISIS. We in the media know better and must be vigilant in our choice of words.”

Fox isn't perpetuating Islamophobia, the beheadings, suicide bombings, and mass executions are.

That's far too easy for leftists, they need something more complex and convoluted at which to point their gnarly little fingers.

Nobody would know about this if it weren't for the Huffington Post. Quite the journalistic source that site is.

Read the comments section and to see the ignorance and hypocrisy of the HuffPost crowd. They may not be representative of liberals in general (maybe the far left) but they still demonstrate the insulated and hypocritical nature of liberal thought.
