They are saying that they really didn't know what was objectionable about their cartoon but it didn't take long for them to find out after the right wing bloggers found out about it.
You may read the whole NPR article by clicking on the "Read the entire article" at the bottom of the Fox page. I don't want people who don't want to see it to have to read it.
But they are still going to leave it up. How disingenuous.
It's called "freedom of the press". Something you strict constructionists should be quite familiar with, since you're always yapping about the constitution.
We need to take this country back from the Glen Becks and the Bill O'Reillys and the Sean Hannities and other right wing hate and fear mongering extremists.
Right-wing talk media doesn't help matters, but they are just an industry taking advantage of a market. The fear and hate run far deeper.
Is that Glen Beck's latest rant? Why are tax payer dollars being spent bailing out billionaire banksters that robbed us blind? I think that's a much more important question. But of course Beck and O'Reilly and Hannity and the rest of the capitalist apologists would rather throw up a smoke screen for their cronies. It's a lot easier to demonize gays and blacks and the poor and Martha Stewart than bring billionaire crooks to justice. Remember Martha Stewart? The Bush prosecutors went after her like a pack of ravenous Pit Bulls like she was some kind of hardened terrorist ready to blow up the Empire State Bld because she had the nerve to do what the billionaire, insider, old white guys club does a billion times over every day. You think Beck is going to be ranting about that any time soon? Nah, he's making too much dough pimping for his rich capitalist sponsors.
Get your facts right. While I don't know about O'Reilly (who doesn't have a coherent political philosophy that I can determine) Beck and Hannity both opposed the bank bailouts and argued, correctly in my estimation, that the big banks should have been allowed to fail. Failure is ultimately the best regulatory scheme. On the other hand TARP, while proposed by the Bush administration, was passed by a Democrat Congress, including Obama. So who is it, again, that is in bed with the "billionaire banksters?"

The Cloward & Piven Strategy, hard at work.
Your not going to jump start the economy without capitalism.
Capitalism is dead right now, with the uncertain future ahead.
Wait until they monitory our debt and our currency collapses
