Video: Fox News Apologizes About Isis Piece
August 21, 2008 by Erin Balser
After airing what a lot of people thought was a very ignorant segment about Isis, the transgendered competitor on the upcoming season of America’s Next Top Model, Fox News has issued an apology.
GLAAD sent Fox News an email, telling them that their segment was indeed offensive. Fox New claims that offending the gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered community was never their intention.
While I believe that Fox News’s apology is genuine, it’s troublesome that an accredited news source such as Fox would even air such an ignorant piece. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see hoe Fox covers both Isis and other transgender issues in the future.
Wow, the gay and lesbian community sure have come a long way if they can get those assholes at fox to apologize for their ignorance. Well I applaud GLAAD. Fox is filled with homophobes and racists, so anything they say doesn’t really suprise me anymore.
The apology was genuine?? I don’t think so! He certainly didn’t sound like he was sorry at all. whatever.
That’s what is wrong with the world today, people use others as punching bags. They mock and humiliate people just because they do not understand them. Fox needs to do more than issue this unapologetic apology.
