Those radical little puppets, the Muppets, are causing trouble.
Recently Fox News accused the new Muppet movie of "brainwashing children with anti-oil, anti-corporate propaganda"
Fox Business' Eric Bolling accused "The Muppets" of pushing an "anti-corporate message" and a liberal agenda. The film's villain is an evil oil magnate named Tex Richman.
Business anchor asks: "Are 'The Muppets' brainwashing our kids?"
Never accuse the Muppets from backing down from a fight. When asked about the accusations at a news conference the Muppets hit back.
"They were concerned about us having some prejudice against oil companies - that, I can tell you, is categorically not true," Kermit told reporters. "Besides, if we had a problem with oil companies, why would we have spent the entire film driving around in a gas-guzzling Rolls-Royce?"
Miss Piggy added, "It's almost as laughable as accusing Fox News as, you know, being news."
"Boy, that's going to be all over the Internet!" Kermit quipped
It's not easy being green.
