The point of it, Josh, is that it doesn't matter to Fox's regular viewers. Just like most of Rush's regular listeners probably laugh at the "magic negro" remark, I'd wager most of them took the terrorist insinuation in stride because it already fit with their world view.

So, no, not really a big deal in the scheme of things until Fox's detractors start whining and screaming about it.
