I'm outraged! How dare FOX try to bring a hint of real-world danger and suspense to their otherwise-fine action show 24. Why, this might offend our terrorist allies in "Palestine" and Iraq, or inhibit the left's crusade against the Jews in Israel, and we just CAN'T have that, now can we? Doesn't FOX know that only Nazi's, corporations and other white men can be used as villains in a TV show or movie?
//Sarcasm off//

I learned everything I needed to know about Hollywood "cultural sensitivity" gone insane when I saw the p***ied-up version of The Sum of All Fears. Oooh, that was bad, and Waaaay off target since Nazi's have less power than the ACLU as a political/terrorist organization in the modern world.

I thought at the time that they were from out of town.

I thought the "rednecks" had just gotten out of jail. Guess that would be waaaaaaaaaaay out of town. ;-)

I wish they would be more upset about Fox's upcoming "Who's Your Daddy" program.

why is that such a big deal?

In another scene, she says, a terrorist is shown coming out of a mosque.

Gasp! Why would they portray the truth? Fundametalist Muslims are the ones doing terrorism, and they are most likely visiting a Mosque on a daily basis...

Hey, I'm thrilled to death anytime tv shows and movies feature Ukrainians as villains. As a second-generation Ukrainian-American, that means we finally achieved status in the world. :)Grow a backbone people and realize it's fiction.
