Yes that's just a joke in poor taste. On the other hand when I went to the little search engine that could to learn more I ended up at the the Weekly Standard: http://www.weeklystandard.com/weblogs/TWSFP/2008/10/this_is_disgraceful.asp Where the post closes with: "The hate crime hoax is not a new phenomenon, but it's fairly rare on our side of the ideological spectrum." and my head almost 'sploded. So while Fox might not be covering this at least they aren't implying that hate crime hoaxes are 'less than rare' on the other side of the political spectrum.
