Forest Jihad? What the what?

Fox News, renown for its conservative political advocacy, has been reported in the SMH with this to say about the Victorian bushfires:

"The Fox News service talked about "forest jihad", warning that terrorists would see the potential of using fires as a "highly effective weapon and simple tool of a holy war"."

What creative journalism. Certainly very appropriate coming from a broadcaster whose trademarks slogan is "Fair & Balanced".

Even Mr Men is getting in on the fun ...

  1. You're getting controversial now - well done!

    Fox News - utter utter utter crap. But people seem to enjoy that kind of thing, like Jerry Springer. :D

  2. I can imagine an episode of Jerry Springer along the lines of "Mum, I married a Jihad". And yes I would watch it.
