So Fox News actually did something I support for once.
By not showing these videos, we are sugarcoating the horrors that they are inflicting upon people.
I wonder if Fox showed stuff like, dunno, Palestinian kids killed by airstrikes, or Iraqis burned by WP weapons... I really wonder.

To be fair, the pilot was a devout muslim. So i'm surprised fox would even allow something that suggests that not all muslims are terrorists on the air.

True, though it is also true what Saiwania says, they didn't show it over the air, just made it available on their web site. That's their call.
