Fox News co-host Jon Scott decided to send the Muslim community a very Islamophobic message on Sunday.
During the Fox & Friends Weekend segment, Scott 'advised' Muslims to not "burn people and set off bombs" if they want more positive portrayals in the media.
The comment came up during a talk with Fox News co-hosts Pete Hegseth and Abby Huntsman, as the trio discussed a comment made by Homeland actor Mandy Patinkin.
Patinkin said the show, which has been criticized for its false depiction of Muslims, was trying to turn that around in season six.
Patinkin explained that the story-line in the new season aims to show that "it's the white men in government and the military establishment that are the bad guys."
The trio seemed to be frustrated by that comment, and by the entire show's direction saying, "there is a political agenda behind that plot."
That's when Muslims spoke up ... with sarcasm
Thanking Scott for the thoughtful advice

Some sent their own advice to the Fox community:
The comment was just a tone-deaf statement, really
A Fox News contributor spoke up: "This is embarrassing"
Fox ... maybe you should ask yourselves this question next time:
