    In a tasteless example of shock journalism, Fox "News" has decided to aid the terrorists of ISIS by promoting their video no doubt allowing access to a greater audience. Even Youtube removes these videos a few hours after they are posted by ISIS, but Fox News has agreed to use their reach to promote ISIS by providing them exactly what they want, media exposure.

    So no acts of terrorism should receive any media coverage, because that's what "they" want?

    Or is that just another infantile jab at Fox for reporting what is actually going on?

    You can report on what is going on without give jihadis warporn boners and promoting ISIS by providing free proliferation of one of their most important recruiting tools.

    The jihadis were pleased with their new advertising partner:

    “Whoever is looking for the al-Furqan version [of the video], here it is and it cannot be deleted because it is on an American network.”

    You start of by telling us that the terrorists want media exposure and criticize Fox for giving them media exposure.

    Needless to say, in your very next post you tell us it is alright to give them media exposure.

    I think it's something progressives need to see.

    Of course you're upset because progressives like you are in denial. You believe all this lighting people on fire and cutting their heads off are all lies created by republicans.

    I'm sure there are plenty of progressives out there right now calling all these savage murders caught on video "CGI propaganda."

    Besides, Fox News is only doing it's job - reporting news.

    Of course progressives would rather our media ignore this savagery...

    Of course liberals will be against anything that puts the terrorist in a bad light.

    They must be protected right?

    After all, we need to have empathy towards them, not outright hatred. They have probably had a very troubled life so lets get to know them a little better...after they put out the guy on fire of course.

    The effect of people seeing this video will be to turn people away from Mohammad. Is that a bad thing?

    ISIS thinks it helps them to release these videos, it does not. Fox is doing the right thing to release the videos unedited. The only people in the west who don't want them shown are those who want to categorize ISIS as the JV team.

    Bravo Fox News. Time someone showed what these Islamic monsters are all about. If you don't like Fox, change the channel.

    I could be wrong, but didn't every TV station in America broadcast the 911 attacks 24/7 and did so without commercials for weeks?

    No, I don't think I'm wrong.

    Are people that incapable of using their empathy and imagination that they cannot fathom the horror and agony of being burned alive? I think Fox Noise caters to a sociopathic audience that is unable to empathize or relate without the visuals. Disgusting that they showed this.

    Yes, I love terrorists. I'm having two ISIS members over for dinner this evening.

    Your post could not possibly be dumber if you tried.

    So what is the problem here? It's either.......

    1. Goes against the grain of what Obama and liberals say about ISIS , that they are unimportant and just a jv squad.

    2.dont like seeing that the true terror that Islam can/does bring on a daily basis that liberals try to sweep under the rug

    3. Can't use this story for your political agenda, so it's unimportant to liberals

    4. It's not a total made up lie like the liberal media is find of to start riots and race wars

    5. All of the above!!!!!


    So which one is it?

    Here's the deal: If it was only reported and not shown the left would down play it, call it no big deal, say all the facts aren't in yet, or they might even deny it. Hell, Obama barely admits terrorists exist.

    We know that Hillary would because she doesn't actually want to fight them, she wants to understand them.

    How better to do that then have them over for dinner.

    I believe you support Hillary do you not?
