Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy hit back at Fox News during a UK press conference following the London Premiere of their new film. Fox had publically criticized the film for supposedly pushing a ‘dangerous liberal agenda’ at kids.

I keep reading people complain that NPR is “silencing” opinions and free speech by firing Juan Williams for saying he gets scared when he sees Muslims on an airplane. He can share his opinions all he wants with whoever he wants, but part of the Code of Ethics for journalists reads:

— Avoid stereotyping by race, gender, age, religion, ethnicity, geography, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance or social status.

So if you want to be a journalist, keep your stereotyping opinions to yourself.

Fox News compares Hipsters to Terrorists

Listen, if it were just the about obnoxious music, silly clothes and filthy subculture that is modern hipsterism, one could simply laugh it off as another generation of stupid kids. The problem, however, is indicative of a mindset that has plagued young people for quite some time. 

Certainly Al Qaeda shares a common bond with the trust-fund jackass, bobbing his head at the Vampire Weekend concert.

Today, young people are increasingly adopting fashionable philosophies that could hurt the world for decades to come.
