Idiotic Updated

Fox News, or as some like to call it, Faux News, made two spectacular gaffes in their coverage of the bombings yesterday. First, a Fox News reported talking about those responsible for the bombing:

That these people are, If necessary, prepared to spill Arab blood in addition to the blood of regular -- of nonarab people living in London.

Second, Fox anchor Brian Kilmeade talking about the ramifications of the attack:

And that was the first time since 9-11 when they should know, and they do know now, that terrorism should be Number 1. But it's important for them all to be together. I think that works to our advantage, in the Western world's advantage, for people to experience something like this together, just 500 miles from where the attacks have happened.

Not the best day for Fox News.

Update: More idiocy. Brit Hume, one of Fox News's top anchormen said yesterday:

"My first thought when I heard - just on a personal basis, when I heard there had been this attack and I saw the futures this morning, which were really in the tank, I thought, 'Hmmm, time to buy.'"

Great first thought, Brit.
