Gone are the says of them claiming this is not a "war on islam", and now, their radical Fringe, the only support they have left, openly display and disseminate their bigotry, validating everything the Social Justice Movement, AntiWar Movement, and concerned citizens the world over have been saying, doing, and building during these dark times.
It's time to take action against these Extremists.
To the streets ... ?
Down With Neo-Fascism

It isn't claiming that this is THE media in full swing - its claiming that its ONE example - it is of course, incredibly racist propaganda.

It's a syndicated by a Pulitzer prize winning cartoonist that appears in over 400 US newspapers. So in cartoonists terms, it is indeed Fox News. And it is far from an isolated incident:
Cartoons aid US lynch mob mentality
And the way you know they are in the wrong, look at the explictly dishonest denial issued by the Ohio newspaper to a more progressive newspaper.
The publisher claims it is okay since :
> the drain cover depicted in the cartoon is clearly labeled with “Iran” and “extremism”
Yet that is plainly a lie. This is clear state fascism that the Nazis would be proud of.
