Except for, surprisingly, NPR, which is regulated as a non-profit membership content-distribution group. And I have no idea why that is.
[QUOTE=zombays;46910748]To be fair, there are [I]parts[/I] of European towns where there is a strong amount of Sharia Muslims. How much? I dunno. I live in the Midwest of the USA, nothing happens here except for tornadoes n shit[/QUOTE]
Dude Sharia is the law/code of conduct, you probably are thinking about Sunni/Shia which are denominations that have very little to do with the topic at hand.
Or you are trolling, I cannot be sure.
They act as if this is any different from the culture areas we have in America. Ever hear of little Italy? Christ, New York alone probably has at least a dozen "No go zones" by their definition its just a group of people who share a similar culture. Fox is retarded.
If Birmingham is purely Muslim, does this mean that America is purely stupid?
[sp]I'm joking.[/sp]
I have a friend who lives in b ham and is a muslim, I told him I was proud for taking over and he said who would want to take this place over anyway
seriously though its not as bad as people say there are far scarier places in the uk

NPR is the best thing airing. I listen to them daily, from 8:00-4:30, because I have a job that keeps me on the road. They are an amazing source for news, debate, and human interest stories, and the floor is always open to intelligent and well-spoken experts on every side of the issues. It's very impressive how fair and objective NPR has remained, even in the face of issues that make most people have an immediate emotional reaction.
All news outlets should aspire to meet the bar that NPR has set, if you ask me!
That's hilarious to think it's the most muslim populated city in the UK to begin with i mean have they even seen Derby or Bradford?
I'm starting to think the only prerequisites for a job at Fox News is Loud.....and Medieval sense of morals and judgement.
At times, I wished I lived in the Fox News-verse, like the Onion News-verse, it seems way more interesting.

Reality didn't stop them, why should it stop you? The world can be anything you want it to be, so long as you willfully ignore any evidence to the contrary.

how are they really this fucking stupid[/QUOTE]
She's not as much a news anchor as an actor.
The only thing that's fucked about Birmingham is the accent.
[sp]Just kidding it's all fucked[/sp]
Walking around the big Eighties concrete box that is Birmingham New Street Station to get to my next connection was enough for me, thx.
I've already converted to prevent the death squads from taking me, send freedom USA, send freedom...
What I'm just puzzled about is that Fox News apparently doesn't really stir up peoples anger when they come with such statements that are blatantly untrue and completely unresearched, even though it's not technically considered "news".
If any channel here made such a fictional up statement in a serious manner, they would get flooded with viewer complaints and would basically have to apologize during prime time if they were to regain any respect. We don't have that many channels though, although I'm pretty sure quite a few people watch Fox News.
I once met a bus driver who was collecting bottled water in case "the shit hits the fan and Obama brings in the UN and Nato to take over the US"
It's amazing how much of America is trapped in its own stupidity.
Wait, why has "The Onion" changed their logo?

How do you accomplish this? How can you honestly screw up this badly? I couldn't make this any funnier if I was writing a comedy about fox news

My best guess would be his only sources for info on Europe are groups like the BNP. Delusional radicals tend to stick together.

Maybe not unlikely considering it's the third time (That i can think of). There was the Netherlands thing, as well as the "All British people hate the NHS" thing a few years back
Is it just me or does Steven Emerson sound like a fucking six year old?

I forgot all about that. Christ that pissed me off.

Low-hanging fruit isn't my thing, but his speech impediment makes him sound twice as retarded.

Hahahaha David Cameron has responded and said that this guy is "clearly an idiot"

Yeah, even without his speech impediment he would still sound like an idiot.
"there are actually cities like birmingham that are totally muslim"
jesus christ
If Fox News told the truth then I would be a Somalian pirate.

Good response, but apart from that holy shit what a politician-like answer. I felt like every word was planned and written down beforehand with importance given to make sure emphasis was in the right place, like when he mentioned the strong economy. And then a completely unrelated fact about job growth in the area. Felt so fake for some reason.
