Fox News & Its Gaffe on Islam-Field Day For Twitter Users

Fox news is famous for making up its own news and facts, but its latest news on Islam was beyond everyone’s imagination and became source of humor. Steven Emerson, a self described expert on terrorism made a stunning discovery on Fox news that some parts of Europe, including Birmingham, Britain have become so Islamic that they are off limits to non-Muslims. As per NYT, he also said ‘“In parts of London, there are actually Muslim religious police that actually beat and actually wound, seriously, anyone who doesn’t dress according to Muslim, religious Muslim attire.” He also asserted that all followers of Islam must take responsibility for the Paris attacks. The twitter users had a filed day making fun of the news. . The NYT writes;

“Using the hashtag #foxnewsfacts, Twitter users poked fun at the network by suggesting other things it might also have said: that the name of the city had been shortened to Birming because Muslims do not eat ham; that the nearby town of Alcester “used to be known simply as Cester until all the Muslims conquered Birmingham”; that photos of Queen Elizabeth II and Margaret Thatcher in scarves meant they were observing Muslim law; that the checkered cloth coverings of jam jars showed that even homemade preserves “have to wear hijab.”

A user named Rabeb Othmani wrote, “If you are a non-Muslim and would like to visit Birmingham #illridewithyou.”
