Since when do monkeys or gorillas eat nuts? We all know from European Football that you'd thrown bananas if you wanted to make a racial statement.

They said "that's what we do to animals. Monkeys and gorillas in particular are well-known animal racial slurs.

exactly, they are well known racial slurs, and no one said anything about monkeys or gorillaz. SO if they were being so OVERTLY racist as you think, why wouldn't they just go the whole hog? don't be silly. (oops i just said hog, i guess i'm a racist too now!)
You know damn well that FOX News is gonna get some abuse at the Democrat convention, or when FOX news goes down to Occupy Wall Street you don't think they get the same abuse?? gimme a break.
