The Muppets have been accused of promoting communist propaganda by a Fox network personality.

Eric Bolling, host of Fox's Follow the Money, objected to the anti-capitalism message evoked by the villain in The Muppet Movie, an oil magnate named Tex Richman.

"Liberal Hollywood depicting a successful businessman as evil? That's not new," he wrote. "We're teaching our kids class warfare. Where are we? Communist China?"

Dan Gainor from the conservative Media Research Centre, meanwhile, argued that there is a real danger of children being brainwashed by the cuddly creatures.

Only thing I am going to say is you have to be kidding.
