Paris mayor: We intend to sue Fox News

Apparently even Fox News realizes that claiming that in Paris alone there are over 700 "No-Go Zones" where non-muslims are not allowed was a bit of a stretch. I saw no less than 6 separate Fox News anchors issuing apologies, and reiterating that the claim has no basis in fact.
 
It's funny watching people try and claim that FOX "misspoke" something like 20+ times. Did they have no time to ... you know... fact check the fact that there weren't any go zones? Oh I don't know... maybe calling up the Paris local government, asking for some quotes, maybe asking residents of the city, who knows... maybe doing some research?

Freedom of the press does not include freedom to libel. Why is it that people who least understand rights tend to talk loudest about them?
 
Yeah and if you asked the Detroit Police they'd say there's no such thing as no go zones, BUT, wink, wink, we all know that there really are. ;)

European ‘No-Go’ Zones: Fact or Fiction?
January 21, 2015 2:56 pm By Robert Spencer 33 Comments

The mainstream media is running hard these days with the absurd idea that Sharia no-go zones in Europe are the “Islamophobic” fabrication of Fox News or Steve Emerson. This despite the fact that the New York Times, Newsweek and the New Republic, hardly conservative outlets, have all referred to them. And in this piece, Soeren Kern shows that numerous French analysts have referred to them as well. Will the Mayor of Paris, who has said she will sue Fox News over this, sue all of them also?

“European ‘No-Go’ Zones: Fact or Fiction?,” by Soeren Kern, Gatestone Institute, January 20, 2015:

The jihadist attack on the Paris offices of Charlie Hebdo, a French magazine known for lampooning Islam, has cast a spotlight on so-called no-go zones in France and other European countries.

No-go zones are Muslim-dominated neighborhoods that are largely off limits to non-Muslims due to a variety of factors, including the lawlessness and insecurity that pervades a great number of these areas. Host-country authorities have effectively lost control over many no-go zones and are often unable or unwilling to provide even basic public aid, such as police, fire fighting and ambulance services, out of fear of being attacked by Muslim youth.
