Fox news slanders Bobby Sands

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Tuesday May 06, 2003 18:12author by Ailin Report this post to the editors

Shepard Smith at the end of his news cast today made the following statement, "On this date Bobby Sands died after 66 days on a hunger strike in prison in Belfast N.I.. The moral of the story eat more often"

I would appreciate any help you can give me in letting Fox News know how poor of taste that comment was.
