What I don't get is that... why don't more conservatives call out Fox News for their BS. Most conservatives I know HATE Fox News! They're more intelligent than ANY of their reporters/anchors. Which leads me to believe their ignorance/stupidity is means to draw attention or ratings.

Why does anyone even put Coulter on the air at this point?
There was nothing wrong with Bob Beckle's point. Its a shame Stewart gutted what he actually said for a soundbite gotcha moment.
He points out over 20% of all muslim student Visas currently come to this country then go MIA never showing up to school etc and the fact we need to close the system while we find all these people who could potentially be quite dangerous.

"She ought to be imprisoned for wearing a Hijab"
What the fuck...?

Most conservatives I follow hate Fox News because it isn't crazy enough (they push the GOP party line to the detriment of more conservative factions)

There is one GIF missing.
"I don't care if she [the wife] was involved or not. She should be arrested for wearing a hijab" - Ann Coulter
"I don't care if she [the wife] was involved or not. She should be arrested for wearing a hijab" - Ann Coulter
Which one is Bob Beckle, and do you have a full clip of him articulating his point?
Fox news is basically only News during the early part of the day and during major events. After like 4PM its exclusively an opinion network

People will claim that it's okay because it's an opinion show and not a news show. The problem is that they feed into each other, as the Daily Show did a great job of pointing out: http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-october-29-2009/for-fox-sake-
(around 6:45)
Years ago, I used to defend Fox News. I would point out that while the anchors are conservative, they bring on someone from both sides of the argument for every segment. The problem is, after awhile you realize that the people they bring on for the "left" side are weak, not really on the left, and can't handle the 2v1.
"Fashion police state!"
This is great, John Stewart does this often, but I only catch it on the internet.
Need to go back to watching him and Colbert more often on the TV.
It's sad now that this dude (or the people involved with the show, too) is conducting journalism practices better than the fools at Fox News.

I imagine many Western countries share similar problems when it comes to student visas; you have people from poor backgrounds coming here on those visas to 'study', but in reality its just a platform for them to go to work. Here in England, its particularly problematic. But Beckle's point goes beyond that.
If we can surmise that, because the elder brother migrated to the States, that we should thus refuse entry to Muslim migrants then extending that logic, should we send American Muslims to interment camps on the basis that the younger brother grew up in the country?
I can't watch the video, but what do muslim student visas have to do with anything? The alleged Boston bombers were refugees since they were kids. They weren't here on student visas, and Dzhokhar is a US citizen
She isn't serious. She's entertaining the brain dead.
it's there just click
"View the entire album,"
Oh, I had no idea Ann Coulter had an opinion on this. How interesting.
While you're right, the problem is her followers are quite serious

"View the entire album,"
She should be imprisoned for saying something like this. Oh wait, there is an amendment that prevents that from happening. I wonder how'd she feel if people ignored it and do the same to her.
Jesus. How do all these people get away with just promoting hate on TV every day.

The were muslims. They were students. Now block them all!
And the entire immigration bill is probably kind of dead now . . . . 2 crazy Islamist Chechens ruined things for immigrants from the entire rest of the planet.

Wow I got angry watching that.
Fuck those people.
Fuck those people.
That's exactly what it is. It's the visual version of that trashy not-quite-magazine you pass at the grocery check-out aisle claiming Bigfoot has been spotted at the White House.
Oh I know, that's why it's such a dangerous game.
The news half really isn't that bad. Their coverage of major events especially is exactly like what you find on from other sources.
Regarding the guests, this seems to be a problem with most if not all talk shows. The opposing voice always gets dogpiled by the host, other guests, and audience if there is one. Shame really since a talk show with equal opposing viewpoints is the most interesting.

actually, he might be on to something. A bunch of muslim-americans should form a regulated armed militia just to see the right wingers lose their shit.

Yeah I can't stand the Comedy Central video players...and I can't help but think it's been like this forever. I would watch Colbert Report clips in high school and same thing.

What about non-Muslim/Arabs on student visas who come here and then go MIA? Is there a number on that? That sounds like something students from all over the world would do just to get into America.
Non-US people or people who hate flash, does this link work for you: http://mtvnmobile.vo.llnwd.net/kip0...isode_091/ds_18091_act1_1280x720_3500_h32.mp4

Is it bad that I watched this online the day after it aired, but didn't realize this thread was referring to that episode because this shit happens on an almost regular basis?
See this is why most people say "LOL FoxNews/Republicans"
There is no reasoned argument to be had about any of the nonsense they were spouting.
That would be glorious!
