Elliot Spitzer, Anjem Choudary Interview Critique

Elliot Spitzer's interview with Muslim extremist Anjem Choudary is described as a "created piece of crap." Spitzer's lead-in claimed that radical Islam was "conspicuously absent" from the Arab Spring, a premise the hosts find logically flawed. They mock Spitzer's aggressive posturing and the scripted nature of the cable news segment.

South Park Muslim Threats and Joseph Cohen Connection

A report suggests that the radical Muslim group threatening South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker was founded by Joseph Cohen, a former Israeli radical. The hosts question the legitimacy of the threat, noting that South Park previously aired images of Muhammad in 2001 without incident. They characterize the current controversy as state-sponsored fear-mongering and note the media's failure to identify "Pedobear" references in the related online discourse.
