Fox Fans Want To Bomb Hamtramck After Pete Hegseth's Hit Job On The City
While correlation doesn't necessarily imply causation, it would appear that Fox News' toxic Islamophobia is getting results. After Jesse Watters smeared Dearborn, MI Muslims, Fox fans wanted to bomb that city. And after Pete Hegseth recently smeared Muslims in Hamtramck MI, Fox fans want to, you guessed it - bomb that city, too!
Fox's Pete Hegseth produced a video which was all about stoking fear and loathing of Muslims in Hamtramck Michigan. The video featured older, Polish-American Catholics who viewed their Muslim neighbors with suspicion. It opened with the scary Muslim call to prayer and ended with the comment, from a non-Muslim, that "they're not ready to assimilate, I don't think they're ready for Western culture yet." The video was used, on two Fox & Friends segments, as a propaganda vehicle for the message that Muslims are NOT LIKE US and, thus, very threatening.
