The purpose of this thread is?

Well, it's a comment on the surge as the writer/cartoonist , Trudeau, thinks Fox News would do it.

I thought of posting a link to December 29 when this little story started to put the panel above into context.

I would think its more of CNNs style of reporting. Trudeau may lean left, he is fair.

Yeah, I know - but the mic that Roly is holding says "Fox". Go figure.

I'm a Christian and I don't get it especially since you can't read half of it, and b/c the entire thread wasn't posted. its like taking a sentence out of an entire paragraph and trying to figure out what the book is about.

I don't get it? I thought it was about Christians being persecuted in Iraq.... oh wait.. HEY!! -__-

The cartoon is trying to explain that Christians in Iraq are being persecuted and the mainstream news (perhaps Fox?) is failing to report the story.

The reporter is telling the story HE wants to tell rather than the story being told by the Christian.

It is sympathetic to the plight of the persecuted Christian.
