There's a video in the link above, but I'll sumarise it here. A reporter from Fox News turns up at an anti-war protest and starts asking the protesters questions. He goes up to one protester and asks "what's your message", the protester replies "stop the torture, stop the war". To which the reporter replies by loudly saying "Do you people not believe in freedom?" while in the middle of the group of protesters. The protesters then change their chant to "F*ck Fox News!"

I'm not sure if this or this is the more appropriate reaction.

Hey, this is a situation where there are no wrong answers.

I think this video just reinforces the point made in that other thread that Fox News is not news; it's opinions masquerading as news.

I lol'ed.

oh god

"Do you people not believe in freedom?"

LOL

They're trying to infringe on the right to torture. They must hate freedom, right?

It's clearly defined in the constitution that torture is ok. I think it's somewhere near the back.

haha that rocks!

"But of course we do. The freedom to throw marbles at Fox News reporters!"

My reasons to not watch Fox news are now reaffirmed.

That dude just wanted to cause a confrontation. Who the hell would stroll into the middle of marching protesters and expect them to stop marching and answer shitty questions? You film the marchers them talk to the people on the fringes of the march. You don't walk into the heart of the protest, unless you want a confrontation. This is just a lame attempt to show the sissy Fox News fans "crazy liberals." Good response by the crowd. Force them to stop coverage rather than stoop to their level.

Given that he walked directly into the middle of the crowd and started yelling "don't you people believe in freedom?" I think it's a safe bet he was trying to start a confrontation.
Either that, or he's a f*cking moron.

Or, more likely, both. This is Fox we're talking about.

Fair point.

"Fox News - if there isn't any news, we'll make it!"
