   Fox Nation Nuclear Cloud Incites Talk Of Violence   
   Guest blogged by Hula   
      
   For a few days now, Fox Nation has featured a nuclear cloud prominently on   
   their website and proffered the headline: "Dems Pave Way for Nuclear   
   Option." The article refers to language in one of the Committee versions of   
   the health care reform bill that "could" allow the Senate to pass the   
   legislation with 51 votes instead of the usual 60 needed to avoid a   
   filibuster. Funny, how we can't recall similar outrage from Fox News when   
   the Republicans were threatening to use their own nuclear option.   
      
   Not surprisingly, this article spurred on threats of voter reprisal. But it   
   also engendered at least one more Fox Nation death threat that the   
   moderators approved.   
      
   The comment below, from "Ron in Cal" saying that "it's almost time to pop a   
   cap on the dems soon" has been on the thread for more than 48 hours, despite   
   the fact that another reader publicly flagged it several minutes later as   
   threatening murder. All comments on Fox Nation are moderated. That means   
   that someone approved the original threat and someone approved the comment   
   pointing out that it contained a threat and still thought the "pop a cap on   
   the dems" comment was appropriate. "Pop a cap" is a well-known term for   
   shooting someone.

   Arrest FOX under Bush's Patriot Act, NOW!   
      
   Oh, the irony!
