Family Terrorized After Fox News Wrongly IDs Them As Terrorists

http://www.wdsu.com/nationalnews/4901047/detail.html

LA HABRA, Calif. -- A California couple whose home was wrongly identified on Fox News as belonging to an Islamic radical has faced harassment since the report aired Aug. 7. The backlash has been serious enough to warrant police protection.

Family members have been targets of profanities, threats and false accusations. The word "terrorist" has been spray painted on their property.

Former federal prosecutor John Loftus, who has his own segment on Fox, gave out the address during a broadcast. Loftus said the home belonged to a man with ties to last month's London bombings. But in fact, the man had moved out of that house three years ago.

If this were a bare titty the FCC would be all over this. Where are they now?
