Guy who wants to burn the Quran on Sept. 11

[x2cool]

Yeah fox should die! And yea it's true, one guy can start something huge, although I don't know if all the news coverage he's getting just motivates him to do these things. Well well see what he does on Saturday I'm sure.

What is the difference between Terry Jones and Kurt Westergaard?
One is criticized in the U.S. and Europe,the other is praised in Europe.Both of them are disgusting for Muslim.
Terry Jones should draw cartoons in which they attack Muslim and burn the Quran?

It does seem similar doesn't it? I mean one guy did something offensive and was rewarded for it, and the other is going to do something and is being criticized because of it. When it seems to me like what they are known for is similar. And I think that just because some one has the "right" to say something , that doesn't mean that they should. I mean I wouldn't go around yelling profanity at random people just because I can, right?

This guy is crazy, but the extremists he's provoking are crazier! I hope nothing bad happens to innocent Americans!

Sadly yes, major news anyway. Your looking at what major media news should be should instead of what it is. Every major news group finds a story and will go further by "twisting" the story based on it's particluar bias on it. CNN does it, NBC does it, and FOX happens to do it a little more than others. Does that mean we should not use it as a possible source?

You are absolutely wrong there. No one does it like FOX News does. They do it so much there are TV shows that thrive on "untwisting" their twists, like The Daily Show and in the radio.

Please Steamboatsam, start watching other channels. Try listening to NPR for some. There may be less fireworks and less shouting, but it's actually healthier for you.

The people that think Pres. Obama is a socialist Muslim born in Africa didn't get their news from NPR.

This sort of behavior makes me want to move to another country. I wish I was younger. I think I might try to move to Japan -- after learning the language. I know this sounds awful to say but I'm not real proud of this country.

I think drawing a cartoon and burning a Koran are completely different.

For a start the cartoons were misinterpreted.

This is the insane behavior of one man that has been criticized by just about every one. If you want to move to Japan to get away from crazy people you will be severely disappointed.

You use the Daily show, a fake news show that does comedy acts about news reports, as a reference of untwisting FOX twisted reports? And you get on me about FOX.

I'm trying to state FOX is always right, it isn't and nobody othe channel is. I'm trying to state something similar to what Jaydelart stated earlier. That a report from one source should not be disregarded because of the source's methods and bias of investigation and/or reporting and/or its background. It should be seen and then, if the person is interested in it, to be looked deeper by other sources who did a similar report and see their opinions. Do you write a research paper with just one resource? No, you use multiple resources. The same should go with news when making a decision of what part of a report is real.
