In her weekly Q&A session for the New York Times Sunday Magazine, reporter Deborah Solomon conducted a strongly hostile interview with Brigitte Gabriel, Lebanese-American journalist and opponent of radical Islam, while the headline blurb referred to Gabriel as a "radical Islamophobe."

Here are some of the questions Solomon poses to Gabriel:

Are you an agent of the U.S. government?

Are you underwritten by the C.I.A.?

"NYT Calls Opponent of Radical Islam a 'Radical Islamophobe'"

Yeah, it's all in our head... they mean no harm....

[the invisib1e hand]

'Radical Islamophobe'

moral equivalence goes nuclear.

[Islander7]

Geez! Someon who intimate knowledge of Islam is called a radical because shoe opposes their goals and speaks out about them. Talk about Dhimmis!

[Augustinian monk]

Another self loathing Jew. How fashionable.

When did it become the Times job to defend the Islamofacists?
If they were truly journalists in the orginal sense and not agenda driven liberals, they would instead be attacking the Islamofacist for the evil that they/it is.
But journalism died many years ago.
The vast majority of the news media are now just the propaganda wing of the socilaist/leftists.

Fear of “radical Islam” is perfectly rational, except for the Dhimmi, Grasciites, and Tranzis at the NY Times.

‘Radical Islamophobe’ Yep, put that in the same category as Naziphobe, Arian Nationphobe, KKKphobe, and the worst of all Caucasian phobe.

A Muslim that represents hope for the future? No such thing, I’m afraid.

They hope the world will fall under total submission to sharia law. That type of “hope” is a curse.

Sheik: Mr. Roddenberry why are there no Arabs in Star Trek?

Gene: Because it’s set in the future...

As an ol’graywhoreaphobe, I find the article offensive

OGWphobe......

So does the NYT Calls Opponent of Radical Christianity a ‘Radical Christianphobe’?

Deborah Solomon

Apparently nothing new for Solomon ...

"...according to the details shared by Ira Glass and Amy Dickinson in Elzweig's article, what Solomon engages in is not cleaning or editing as much as it is rewriting-bordering-upon-overhauling. No, such a practice doesn’t rise to Jayson Blair-level crimes and misdemeanors. And no, two people stepping forward from a very large group does not make for a 'trend.' But if more participants in the weekly conversations step forward -- particularly non-axe-grinders like Ira Glass and Amy Dickinson -- and claim that Solomon's tactics are more widespread than just two occasions, then The New York Times Magazine must consider replacing her."

Are you now or have you ever been a member of the New York Times “journalist” staff?

[Gator113]

My goodness, she is very ugly. To think, some poor dweeb sleeps next to that at night.......yuck!!

I would fire her just to keep the paint from pealing.

To think, some poor dweeb sleeps next to that at night.......yuck!!

Oh I don't know...once you get past the countenance of a humorless shrew she's probably a real fine community organizer. ;o)

[LiteKeeper]

When will liberals learn that “phobe,” and its cognate, “phobia,” refer to irrational fears. Disagreement, or opposition, to another ideology is not a phobia!!!

[TheGunny]

GUILTY!!!!!!
