FOX News : Terrorist Fist Bump???

In the spirit of my previous post, FOX News today reported that Obama's fist bump might be a "terrorist fist bump?". So if this was some random blog or message board i could see, But a news organization that touts itself as fair and balanced? I mean we should all know by now that FOX News is anything but that, but still. This is exactly the kind of disinformation to look out for.




Fox News' E.D. Hill teased discussion of Obama dap: "A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab?"

During the June 6 edition of Fox News' America's Pulse, host E.D. Hill teased an upcoming discussion by saying, "A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab? The gesture everyone seems to interpret differently." In the ensuing discussion with Janine Driver -- whom Hill introduced as "a body language expert" -- Hill referred to the "Michelle and Barack Obama fist bump or fist pound," adding that "people call it all sorts of things." Hill went on to ask Driver: "Let's start with the Barack and Michelle Obama, because that's what most people are writing about -- the fist thump. Is that sort of a signal that young people get?" At no point during the discussion did Hill explain her earlier reference to "a terrorist fist jab."
