I couldn't believe it when I heard this, so I checked it out and found it to be true.  This was a segment on a show called 'Fox and Friends':

Fox’s Steve Doocy and Guest Wonder Whether Charleston Shooting Part of ‘War on Christians'. 

With the news that Charleston Police officials describe the Wednesday evening attack that killed 9 people at the Emanuel AME Church as a “hate crime” comes the inevitable pushback and skepticism from some who either view race-based conversations as a non-starter or prefer to wait until all facts become available.

It seems as though Fox’s Steve Doocy and guest E.W. Jackson are in the former camp, as during Thursday’s Fox & Friends the pair expressed doubt as to early claims the shooting was done in the name of racial hate. Instead, the pair both suggested, if anything, the “hate crime” designation may refer to the ongoing “War on Christians” in America.

“There does seem to be a rising hostility against Christians in this country because of our biblical views,” Jackson, a pastor himself, said after urging that everyone wait for the facts. “It is something we have to be aware of.”

Right.  A 20-something white guy goes into a black church and opens fire killing 9 black members of the congregation and we are supposed to think this might be all part of a 'War on Christians".
