"No Go Zones" ?
Fox News Apologises For Saying Birmingham And Parts Of France Were 'Muslim Only'
"Fox News has apologised for claiming England and France had "no go zones" where only Muslims are allowed and which police fear to enter.
<snip>
Fox News presenter Julie Banderas told viewers: "Over the course of this last week we have made some regrettable errors on air, regarding the Muslim population in Europe, particularly with regard to England and France.
"This applies especially to discussions of so-called no-go zones, areas where non-Muslims allegedly aren't allowed in, and police supposedly won't go."
She continued: "To be clear, there is no formal designation of these zones in either country, and no credible information to support the assertion there are specific areas in these countries that exclude individuals based solely on their religion.
"There are, certainly, areas of high crime in Europe, as there are in the United States and other countries, where police and visitors enter with caution.
"We deeply regret the errors and apologise to any and all who may have taken offence, including the people of France and England."
