Fox News joins ISIS cause

Postby Symmetry on Wed Feb 04, 2015 6:02 pm

Apparently they're now publishing ISIS propaganda vids.

Fox News site embeds unedited Isis video showing brutal murder of Jordanian pilot

In a statement, the network said: “After careful consideration, we decided that giving readers of FoxNews.com the option to see for themselves the barbarity of ISIS outweighed legitimate concerns about the graphic nature of the video. Online users can choose to view or not view this disturbing content.”

On Twitter, accounts associated with Isis supporters are sharing the video via the links to the Fox News site. One account, which regularly posts pro-Isis slogans and updates about Islamic State ‘victories’ in battle, tweeted boastfully that “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.” Al-Furqan is Isis’ media outlet.

In a statement, the network said: “After careful consideration, we decided that giving readers of FoxNews.com the option to see for themselves the barbarity of ISIS and the need to justify more foreign intervention and defense spending outweighed legitimate concerns about the graphic nature of the video.

It never ceases to amaze me just how far people will go to defend their core beliefs.

No, of course not, many terrorist websites are outlets for the video too.
