In a story July 27, http://usadailynewsonline.blogspot.com/ reported that the Army psychiatrist charged in the 2009 Fort Hood mass shooting issued a statement to Fox News, saying the U.S. government is at war with Islam. In its story broadcast on television and published online, Fox News did not provide a date for when Maj. Nidal Hasan made his comments.
