They had this coming in fairness.
You might have missed it, but Fox News was once again the subject of ridicule late last night after footage emerged of terrorism ‘expert’ Steven Emerson making some frankly ridiculous claims about Muslims and the city of Birmingham in the UK.
Emerson has since apologised for his comments but that didn’t stop plenty of people from having a laugh at his claims that Birmingham was a no-go area for non-Muslims.
You can see hundreds and hundreds of funny responses under the #foxnewsfacts hashtag on Twitter, but why bother when you can just have a quick glance at some of our favourites below.
Keep up the good work Fox News.
Hi there @FoxNews Any chance of a RT for the first non-Muslim comedian ever to perform in Birmingham? https://t.co/OLeF9yDFTA? Cheers!
