Media Schadenfreude and Media Shenanigans

A Saudi prince who owns shares of the Fox News Channel claims he persuaded network chief Rupert Murdoch to change a screen banner during a broadcast that identified the recent unrest in France as "Muslim riots."

While Fox is to the right of CNN America (and far to the right of CNN International), it hardly makes it a conservative mouthpiece.

The left targets Fox because the left has targeted Rupert Murdoch for over 40 years.

Fine.

If the riots are not Muslim riots, then the deserved crackdown is not anit-Muslim.
