Their standard approach to reporting is to slander those with whom they disagree and serve as press agents for their ideological allies. They specialize in puerile insults and character assassination. It is impossible to watch Fox without hearing them call the protesters (or the President) Marxists. And that&#8217;s probably what they&#8217;ll call Anonymous if they even bother to report this threat.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"284\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fa_FzQV5fpE\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned.
