Earlier this month, Fox News tore apart Harvard students for saying America presents a greater threat to world peace than ISIS.

The mud-slinging began when frequent Fox News guest Caleb Bonham interviewed Harvard students on the matter for conservative student blog Campus Reform. Fox News picked up the video. "Outnumbered" host Andrea Tantaros called the America-bashing fad "disgraceful," while guest John Rich referred to the students as a "bunch of snot-nosed brats" and "a threat to the gene pool."

Now Harvard is fighting back - in parody.

Student-run, satirical news show "On Harvard Time" conducted its own man-on-the-street interviews, asking students whether they consider themselves to be a patriot and prompting them to recite the Pledge of Allegiance.

"Fox News correspondents had some strong words to say. So, naturally we decided to retaliate," says "On Harvard Time" correspondent Sam Clark. "Funny things ensue."
