WMAL Suspends Host Over Muslim Comments

In an about-face from yesterday, Washington DC-based radio station WMAL gave in to pressure from the PC police and suspended conservative talk show host Michael Graham, at the request of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

In a statement released last night, 630 WMAL president and general manager Chris Berry announced midday personality Michael Graham would be indefinitely suspended pending an internal investigation into Graham's July 25th remarks that Islam is a terrorist organization.

"Talk radio is an excellent forum to discuss issues important to our society. Nevertheless, the statements that Michael Graham made on July 25 crossed the line," Berry said. "He has been suspended pending an internal investigation. We do not condone his position, and we believe his statements were irresponsible."

This is complete nonsense. Graham has said time after time that, while not all Muslims are terrorists, most terrorists are indeed Muslims and the Islamic community at large fails to recognize this fact. Graham is one of the best talk show hosts out there and it will be the loss of WMAL if they fail to reinstate him.

Random and Politically Incorrect Thoughts has a great point: CAIR is in support of terrorist organizations, including Hamas. Why are they still allowed to exist? And they prove Graham's point very well.

Michelle Malkin has more.
