The instant she said what she said, and didn't win because of what she said, it suited their purposes, which is to say that it showed discrimination against a persons belief.
If the shoe was on the other foot, and the judge wasn't a homo-nazi, but instead a christian, and the contestant answered in favor of same sex marriage and the judge marked down because of the persons opinion, the judge would be crucified in two seconds flat.
Why the hypocrisy?Did Fox News ever report as serious news what a beauty pageant contestant said until it suited their purposes?
Of course not! FOX literally only reports what suits their agenda, they trim down clips to the parts that could be considered offensive and block their redeeming qualities, they never bother presenting opposing viewpoints or analysts that don't agree with them. They've flipped on literally dozens of issues, the most recent of which being their stance on protests and rallies (2007: protests are anarchy; 2009: it's time for a revolution!)
It's also ridiculous to think that the sole reason she didn't win was because of her views on marriage. First off, the actual statement was simply malformed and unprofessional, her response was definitely fumbled. Secondly, there are dozens of other factors that decide whether or not a person wins a beauty pageant...one statement wouldn't blow the pageant for her. FOX is simply assuming that the reason Ms. California didn't win, after competing with 49 other contestants, was her answer to this question. Or, how about this crazy idea, FOX...maybe she just wasn't the best contestant!
They'll make political hay out of anything no matter how absurd or trivial. Their one sided approach to this is why they are not a true news organization. What about the art full nudes of some Miss America and the condemnation that she received from the Christian Right? The pendulum swings both ways.
I don't believe anyone ever lost the pageant for being a Christian before.
Some people consider that worthy of reporting.
People who want to hear about Obama's dog and listen to disgusting sexual epithets being applied to American citizens protesting high taxes and socialist policies can always switch over to CNN or MSNBC.
I think that discrimination based on one's political beliefs is a relevant issue, so I'm glad that SEVERAL news stations have seen fit to report on it.
Well i NEVER watch Faux News so....
no that would be cnn or msnbc not fox
you have too many typos and your question doesnt make sense...add details...
