bill: continuing now with the impact segment, let s bring in fox news analyst mary katharine ham and alyssia menendez in for juan williams tonight. he will join us in a moment to talk about his new book on npr. ladies are in washington this evening. were you offended by the new york times highlighting the word christian in its headline? mary katharine. yeah. look. i think it s a problem. first of all i m a political animal but i try very hard in these instances not to immediately jump on a hobby horse and figure out where i can ride it immediately in the aftermath of a strategy like this. i think a lot of other people would do good to do that as well. the new york times many liberal activists, certainly desperately want an analog to extremist islam pat themselves on the back for being equal and making this equivalence. you know what? a lot of times the term use in order guy and if you read his writings it s certainly not mainstream fundamentalism. ....
The muslim threat in the world. of course, that s absurd. jihadists have killed tens of thousands of people all over the world. taliban, elements in pakistan use governmental power to support terrorism by muslims. left wing press wants to compare nuts like breivik and mcvey to state sponsored terrorism and worldwide jihad. again, dishonest and insane. the second reason the ricial media is pushing the christian angle is they don t like christians very much because we are too judgmental. many christians oppose abortion. gay marriage, and legalized narcotics. secular left causes. the media understands the often based on religion. they want to diminish christianity and highlighting so-called christian-based terror is a way to do that. the primary threat to this world comes from islamic terrorism. ....
bill: no. no. the reporter didn t write that ed line. the editors wrote the headline. it s page 1. that s the big kahuna. that s the big kahuna. this is above the fold, banner headline, throw it up there again. the reporter had nothing to do with this. this was we sit down. we decide. wait, alicia, i want everybody to know how this works. the editors of the new york times sit down. they have decide what their lead story is going to be and what their above the fold headline is going to be. then they put it there. the reporter has nothing to do with it, okay? this was an intentional, without a doubt, intentional brand of a mass murderer as a christian. it is appalling. this is a serious situation, ladies. this isn t mistake or sloppiness or laziness. this is appalling. ....
To do that. of course i m an oracle. new book called muzzled just out. assault on debate. he joins us now. i mean, come on. i am carcarknack seer of the future here you are with this dopey book. let me tell you something. at the time i was so emotionally screwed up because i was hurt and had you a sense of the puls of the folks. you knew exactly the publishers, knowing that the public wants to hear the inside deal. and then what happened was i went outside, talked to people. everybody says, you know what? i have similar feelings. similar anxieties when i m getting on a plane and i see people in muslim garb after 9/11. i don t know why you can t say that then they start saying you know what? in this country there is a lot of things you are not supposed to say anymore. bill: you just haired the debate that we had not much of a debate report we had on the new york times using the word in the banner christian. this muslim thing, that s why it s done. ....
That s impossible. no one believing in jesus commits mass murder. the man might have called himself a christian on the net. is he certainly not of that faith. also breivik is not attached to any church and in fact has criticized the protestant belief system in general. the christian angle came from a policeman not from fact finding we can find no evidence, none that this killer practiced christianity in any way. so why is the angle being played up? two reasons. first, the liberal media wants to make an equivalency between the actions of breivik and the oklahoma city bomber tim mcveigh and al qaeda. the left wants you to believe that fundamentalists christians are a threat just like crazy jihadists are. in fact in the new york times today an analysis says that some believe we have overreacted to ....
