Crescent controversy on Fox News television and Fox News front page! Thanks to the Avid Editor for the video clips

Boy, Murdoch is pulling out all the stops saying that ‘what continues to grow is support for the design’!!! What continues to grow is the OPPOSITION to planting the biggest Mosque in North America by a factor of 100 on the Flight93 crash site and the graves of the passenger and crew to commemmorate tha 9/11 terrorists.

What Murdoch is doing is in complete violation of Congress’s mandate that says the terrorists were excluded from the definition of passengers and crew and are not to be honored in the memorial.

Check out the Fox News front page today, where “Crescent Outrage” alternates top billing with “Six-Legged Soldiers!” Finally, more than a handful of Americans will at least know that there is a controversy over the Flight 93 memorial.

They won’t know much more than that. The Fox reporting is pretty bare, and includes no mention of the Mecca orientation of the giant crescent, no mention of the 44 inscribed translucent blocks on the flight path, no mention of the Islamic sundial, and no fact checking (the modern media disease). Still, this is big.

Fox IS airing the side-by-side comparison of the Crescent of Embrace and the Islamic crescent. They also report Tom Burnett’s condemnation of the crescent design an insult to his murdered son, and they mention our petition.

Fox has a lot more information at their disposal. They had a television crew to the Somerset County Courthouse yesterday where Colonel Harry Beam laid out a precise and devastating exposé of Islamic and terrorist memorializing design features, and they were sent extensive fact checking materials. None of this gets into their present reporting. Hopefully they will be using this material for an investigative feature in the not-too-distant future.

It appears as though CBS has something on this, also–
