Idiocracy
It's the constant "boots on the ground" mantra and military officers with ties to big war companies and "think" tanks". It's a good channel for people who agree with the McCains, Graham's, Clintons, Obamas, and bushes, if you are a pro war anti freedom Neo con you should enjoy their "news" and opinions.

Wow! The venom spitters and haters are out in force! For people who hate Fox News and Opinion shows so much, you sure pay a lot of attention to them..... Where are the lies told on the Fox News? Not the Opinion shows, give me a lie Brett Baier has told, how about Cavuto.

You ask for it, here it is. A video of a Brett Baier, Fox News broadcast repeating the lie about Paris "no-go" zones.



Here is a link to a FoxNews article (not an opinion column) repeating the lie about Paris "no-go" zones. Paris attacks prompt fears France's Muslim 'no-go' zones incubating jihad

Brian Williams, suspended for 6 months for telling a fanciful tale about being in a helicopter taking fire. No one at Fox News has been punished for telling the Paris lie. Bill O'Reilly has been given carte blanche by the network to tell any lie he wants.

Perhaps this article will explain how the phrase, "no-go zone" came about and why. In the article, the author states that another term should have been used.

A Question of No-Go Zones in Europe

If what the author states is true, then there could be a bit of truth because the police enter those areas only in force.

Wasn't this that "religion of peace" our presidient is always referring to?

Semantics?

From the article he linked:
"On January 11, Emerson said they “exist throughout Europe. . . . They’re places where the governments — like France, Britain, Sweden, Germany — don’t exercise any sovereignty. . . . You basically have zones where sharia courts were set up, where Muslim density is very intense, where the police don’t go in, and where it’s basically a separate country almost, a country within a country.” Although Emerson, whom I admire for his moral courage and investigative skills, immediately apologized for his “terrible error” of saying that cities such as Birmingham, England, “are totally Muslim where non-Muslims just simply don’t go,” he did not address the larger question of whether no-go zones, in fact, do “exist throughout Europe” and are places where governments “don’t exercise any sovereignty...

After spending time in the banlieues (suburbs) of Paris in January 2013, as well as in their counterparts in Antwerp, Athens, Berlin, Brussels, Copenhagen, the Hague, Malmö, and Stockholm, however, I had second thoughts. I found that those areas “are not full-fledged no-go zones” — meaning places where the government had lost control of territory. No warlords dominate; sharia is not the law of the land. I expressed regret back then for having used the term no-go zones."

And what did Steve Emerson have to say:
"I have clearly made a terrible error for which I am deeply sorry. My comments about Birmingham were totally in error. And I am issuing this apology and correction for having made this comment about the beautiful city of Birmingham. I do not intend to justify or mitigate my mistake by stating that I had relied on other sources because I should have been much more careful. There was no excuse for making this mistake and I owe an apology to every resident of Birmingham. I am not going to make any excuses. I made an inexcusable error. And I am obligated to openly acknowledge that mistake. I wish to apologize for all residents of that great city of Birmingham."

Fox News lies. Admits it lied. And yet the Fox News apologist simply will not be honest about it.

Yes, there is no doubt the semantics game is being played. And there is no doubt which side it playing it.
