Yeah but SHOTIME is a premium channel and local FOX can be viewed by anyone. Ever wonder why CNN is not a premium channel and yet FNC is? I am confronted daily by leftist who always quote what they see and hear on CNN and when I tell them that CNN is biased they do not comprehend. Many lower income families, often associated with being leftist or socialist politicaly, only hear about the news from a left biased media.

Correct.

Hey CAIR - what is the common denominator here?????

[Muslims voice concern over 'outing' of terrorists 'agenda' on ‘24’]

A more accurate edit of headline.

These faces and many others are here to wipe us out!


Looks like only a few of us care, or understand!

They are busy complaining about a tv show when over a hundred of their brothers were blown up by fellow muslims in Iraq yesterday Bears repeating!

Unfortunately people have short memories and some have forgotten 9/11.

I'll never forget.

Lauren is the TV writer for the Herald, so I await her insightful observation about the British Channel 4 documentary which is not fantasy, rather it is the voice of Islam in it's own words.

I voice my concerns that Muslims voice concern over portrayal of terrorists on ‘24’

Those 19 hijackers on 9/11/2001 were all muslime terrorists.

Physician (or CAIR) heal thyself.

There are no Muslim terrorists.

There are no German Nazis

There are no Italian Costra Nostra.

No Latins in MS 13.

No Africans butchering each other in Africa.


Candice Bergman will resurrect her role as Murphy Brown to condemn the the show "24"

[mc5cents]

The plot of the hit Fox drama “24” may make for exciting television, but Muslim groups fear their representation as terrorists does more than entertain - it vilifies an entire religious group.

That should read, "...vilifies and entire political group." Until we recognize that Islam is a political movement and not a religion we will have trouble dealing with the enemy.

“I saw ‘24’ (on Monday) and we do have concerns with the show,” Ahmed said. “We are monitoring it and will be contacting our contacts at Fox to discuss those concerns.”

If Ahmed really watched the "24" premiere, then he should have noticed that the fictionalized version of his own organization (the Islamic American Alliance on the show) consists of good guys who are being unfairly targeted. The leader even passes critical information he overhears to the government through his lawyer.

I think maybe Ahmed is seeing what he wants to see and ignoring the rest.

The show is making the "CAIR" cutouts look good.

[ichabod1]

If Islam did not produce Muslims that find terrorist activities so gosh darn fun

We really need to get them onto some other sort of hobby.

[ichabod1]

Right now we know the real bad guys are the cabal we call the "Bluetooth Gang" for the Ronnie Howard looking guy with the Bluetooth earpiece that was running the President last year. They have something to do with the Caspian Oil conspiracy that's been part of the show from the beginning. They will be back. As to whether they are the ultimate bad guys, I do not know.

What if 24 had the whole world go to hell and Jack be a Mad Max type of character, some year in the future.

[ichabod1]

Truth is what I can get you to believe.

[reagan_fanatic]

So they're upset - put a disclaimer before each show then tell CAIR and its ilk to go **ck themselves.

Maybe season 7 should focus on environmentalist wackos.
