Good for her. Maybe she'll speak out against the rape of that female Dutch reporter in Tahrir Square yesterday as well as the rape of CBS reporter Lara Logan last year.

HA! Riiiiiiight.

I wonder if she read Section 32 (b) of her contract that requires female circumcision?

Al Jazeera America is going to have a real problem competing with the lap dog alphabet media as it is. Maybe Soledad in a burqua will be how they distinguish themselves from the rest of the pack.

“probably stays in the same pension, health and welfare plans”

Muslims don’t believe in insurance. That’s why they are exempted and the uS taxpayers will be picking up the whole tab for their hopitalizations. They don’t believe in “gambling” which they say insurance is.

she was too young to go to work for pravda during it’s heyday.

Have you checked out pravda.ru lately?

I actually enjoy their English language website. They do real journalism.

Oh, by the way....

Fitting for someone who is named after a prison.
She was a ultra lefty doing fluffy stories when I lived in the Bay Area.

O’Brien was bound to land at either the Al Jazeera or the Al Sharpton network.
