Mohyeldin's Pauline Kael Moment: 'Every Single Person I Spoke To' Says Trump Plan 'Disastrous'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/08/2015 5:58:34 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Call Ayman Mohyeldin "the Duke Ellington Reporter" in homage to the jazz great's "Don't Get Around Much Anymore." Or perhaps you could say that Mohyeldin had his Pauline Kael moment, after the New York Times movie critic who admitted, at least apocryphally, that she couldn't understand how Nixon won since she didn't know anyone who voted for him.

Isn't a reporter supposed to, you know, get around and speak with people with a range of views? Not Ayman. On this evening's Hardball, Mohyeldin said that "every single person I've spoke to" said [Trump's Muslim immigration plan] would be "disastrous." But just a bit earlier in the show, Michael Steele cited a poll showing that 56% of Americans believe that Islam is incompatible with American values. Mohyeldin apparently didn't have a chance to chat with any of the majority of Americans. Not surprising, coming from the man who called American Sniper Chris Kyle a "racist" who went on "killing sprees."

Surprise! NBC’s Mohyeldin says “every single person” he spoke to opposes Trump Muslim immigration plan.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Sorry, Ayman Mohyeldin, but every single person I’ve talked to thinks Trump’s plan is a good start. Weird, huh?

I guess there are Two Americas. The bad news for you is that MY America is full of people who do things and are ready to fight to defend her. YOUR America is full of whiny Pajama Bois and microagressed girls who need “safe spaces”. Your America can’t handle the future. Be thankful that the people of MY America are good people who know the meaning of grace.

Ayman Mohyeldin is an Egyptian-American journalist based in Los Angeles for NBC News. He previously worked for Al Jazeera and CNN. (Wiki)

He is part of the Jehad. I’ll bet he’s sitin on an AK,
a few rounds of ammo and some pipe bombs. His job, like all
liberal journalists is propaganda and misinformation.

Megyn Kelly is giving Trump an extremely hard time during the opening of her show this evening. She said that terror was the top news story until Trump wanted to inject himself into the headlines. She’s only going to devote a small amount of time on Trump as he is the GOP front runner and then she’ll turn to terrorism. I can’t wait to see how Trump reacts to her incredibly snide remarks.

Mohyeldin's father was Egyptian and his mother Palestinian. What is he supposed to say? He is a moslem propagandist.

I don't think it can be denied that islam has been at war with the West for 1400 years. IF we wake up and become engaged Mohyeldin and his ilk will have a rude awakening.

“Megyn Kelly is giving Trump an extremely hard time during the opening of her show this evening.”

Precisely why I don’t tune into her anymore. I don’t want to hear her GOPe babble.

Mistakenly, I tuned hoping she would agree with his policy that, if enforced, could only help secure the safety of Americans. I know, I’m dreaming. :)

That's what happens when you have a circle jerk in a room full of mirrors.

These sneaky lying bastards are waiting quietly in place pandering to Americans that will listen and agree and those who are coexisters. We have been infultrated and they are waiting for the right time and the right numbers to do a number on us

You said...
“I guess there are Two Americas”

In many ways. There is a big chasm with the press, academia , and the political elite verses the rest of the country on not just this issue but many others. I've never seen the chasm as big as if is now. The reason? IMO, is because the people on one side of the chasm have to live with the ideas and programs created by those on the other side
