The Internet calls out Fox News’ Islamophobia with #FoxNewsFacts 

On Sunday, noted “terrorism expert” Steven Emerson appeared on Fox News to discuss the recent attacks on Charlie Hebdo’s offices in Paris. Things went downhill almost immediately. 

After launching into a tirade about Muslim communities in Europe, Emerson — who has appeared before Congress multiple times and is the founder of the Investigate Project on Terrorism — fired off this gem: 

"There are actual cities, like Birmingham [one of the most populous cities in the United Kingdom], that are totally Muslim, where non-Muslims just simply don’t go in. And parts of London, there are actually Muslim religious police that actually beat and actually wound, seriously, anyone who doesn’t dress according to religious Muslim attire."
