Fox News can say anything to anyone as long as it's true can't they? Well except for government leaks.

Why would you believe that goverment leaks released by FOX would be true then? I know that answer, just because it is about a wrong in the world the U.S. has or is doing, it must be true. 8O :roll:

I am by no means an advocate for Fox News, but I can't help but wonder what people's reactions would be had this been done by another network? Would their reactions be the same, or something totally different?

Fox Insists Woman Made 'Anti-American Comments' in Emails

Jason Ditz,

December 28, 2010




The effort against Smith closes with a chilling comment from the grandmother, who notes “I am exercising my right, as an American citizen to freedom of speech, religion, and the right to bare arms. I have the right in America to say what ever I want. That is what makes America so great, right?” The report then immediately segues into a comment from an unnamed “consultant” claiming that Smith’s comments are “classic signs of extremism.”

I fully agree she has as much right to wear short sleeves as anyone. :smile:

I can't help but wonder what the out cry would be if she and her cohorts actually committed some act of terrorism, and Fox hadn't past on the information in their possession.

Ah yes, those that have not been attacked by Muslim extremists have so much to say about the conduct of those that have been.

All people married to Muslims who grew up with people that have attempted to attack the US; and who have made repeated journies to the area where they grew up; and who have made extremely anti-US statements should be investigated. If they have done nothing wrong, they have nothing to fear.

If they are plotting, then it is much better to catch them BEFORE the murder innocent people.

And the die hard leftists can scream and shout, gnash their teeth and moan about discrimination to their hearts content. In the USA, they do have the freedom of speech to say whatever they wish.

Me, well I'd a whole lot rather see people be investigated, and cleared, then suffer another attack because we were afraid of offending someone.

I doubt granny is a threat to America but hey, anything to convince Americans that they are in controll.

When America is hit next, (sooner rather than later), it will take them by surprise as did the 19 heros on 9/11.

What I can't get over is the fact that fox considers her comments and beliefs extreme.
It is at the core of American society. America believes in the right to have weapons and
to speak freely their thoughts and positions on life. I think people who believe in freedom
are dangerous, can you imagine if someone said that in public?
Fox doesn't believe in freedom when it comes to any opinion except theirs. It is too bad
that this country has stooped to going through people's facebook page? America is no
more than a shadow of its former self. It is afraid of everything and everyone who does
not agree with them. They have spent themselves into poverty and are blaming others
for their misfortune. I am saddened by these events, I do not hate America, I am now
disgusted by their behavior, and their belief in self entitlement. This country is on the
brink, it would appear history has seen this before, when Rome itself did the same thing.
The truth is even worse for us all though. Should the great experiment with freedom fail,
and America collapses, the progress of mankind will stall for a few more centuries. No
America is not perfect but it is a hell of a lot better than many of the alternatives. Face
it even those who don't like America know full well we would not be on a facebook page
period, if our wonderful friends in the Taliban were in power. Putting things in context
we are better off with a country like America than without it, but America has to clean up
it act. They have been living beyond their means in Foxes shadow of fear for way to long.
Fox is a television version of the McCarthy era, it has little substance and little news value.
Before you curse of cheer though, CNN is a shadow of its former self as well. The problem
is these networks tried to be more entertaining while being informative, and they have ended
up with personality casualties and little ability to inform or influence the events of history.
The whole bloody country is unravelling like a giant ball of twine and most Americans don't
even see the massive crisis coming that will change their lives for a hundred years.
In the Middle East the Taliban and their networks and allies are are a great threat, but not the
only threat, if Americans turn their country over to Sarah Palin and the Tea Party, they will
destroy the place faster than the terrorists ever thought possible. America, Grandmother is
the least of your problems

Yep, the human race has another 100 years at most unless we change course fast. But how do you get rid of such things as greed, self entitlement and self importance. Brittany Spears can sell more newspapers in a day than Terry Fox could in a year. There has to be something radically wrong.

The more we believe we are free, without self restraint, the more of a prisoner we become
to our indulgence. At some point we become a slave of the future itself, for our survival
is dependant on our self indulgence fortified by the rewards of greed, to sustain our own
self importance an never ending circle that rolls on, on a self fulfilling road to disaster.
