"In its programming last night, Fox News issued two corrections on the matter, one of which acknowledged that 'we have made some regrettable errors on air regarding the Muslim population in Europe, particularly with regard to England and France.'"

She continued: 'To be clear, there is no formal designation of these zones in either country and [b]no credible information to support the assertion there are specific areas in these countries that exclude individuals based solely on their religion[/b].'" (emphasis added)

The allegation about no-go zones has been made many times in this forum. Several times, other posters asked for support for the claim from sources more credible than Fox News. No such support was ever offered. Now we see why.

It's good that Fox acknowledged this error but disappointing that the network repeatedly broadcast such erroneous information. Hopefully Fox's audience will learn to be a bit more skeptical in the future.
