Reza Aslan Fox Video: Contributing to the trend of today's slumping journalism, a Fox News anchor conducted an ignorant and offensive interview.
Fox News Lauren Green asks Reza Aslan why Muslim would Muslim can Write About Jesus...Oh dear. Paxman-esque tenacity is prized among TV interviewers, but sometimes - particularly when your line of questioning is a ludicrous and not-so-faintly Islamophobic one - it's better to just let go. Here Fox News host Lauren Green tries to pin down respected scholar Reza Aslan on why, as a Muslim, he felt capable of writing a book about the life of Jesus. Aslan refers her to his Ph.D. Then he points to 20 years studying the history of religions. Then, admirably, he repeats himself.

this lady is a shame...
Difficult to get your head round an interviewer being so biased and to put it bluntly, stupid. I think the guy did exceptionally well under the circumstances. After all it is Fox News, not exactly a station anyone with an iota of intelligence would watch is it.
Yea thumbs up to Reza Aslan. Maybe they were trying to instigate him.
