... I'm committing a hate crime?
I'm inclined to agree with Chris Hitchens on this one. This is ridiculous and outrageous; the next thing you know, I won't be able to publish images of Muhammad in my newspaper without inspiring riots.
Also from the Dept of Muslims Practicing Bad Public Relations: The Council on American-Islamic Relations recently kicked a reporter out of a news conference -- held at the National Press Club, incidentally -- because CAIR doesn't like her articles.
I won't defend her work, or the Washington Times, which is not my favorite paper. But I'll defend her right to cover a news event open to other journalists, hosted by an organization that practically embodies the First Amendment [disclaimer: I'm a member of the press club]. Every other journalist at the event, including those serving on the panel, should have gotten up and left when Hudson was escorted from the room.
