I think it’s safe to say that Fox News has stooped to a new low.
The other day, renowned academic and author Reza Aslan was forced to respond to an embarrassing barrage of Islamophobic questions during an interview with host Lauren Green.
Green continually ignores the fact that Aslan says he’s a scholar of religion and, in particular Christianity and keeps asking him why a Muslm would be interested in writing about Jesus.
“Well, to be clear, I am a scholar of religions with four degrees, including one in the New Testament, and fluency in biblical Greek, who has been studying the origins of Christianity for two decades, who also just happens to be a Muslim,” Aslan replies.
Green then accused Aslan of not disclosing his Muslim identity.
Aslan countered that he mentions his faith on the second page of the book.
This might be the most cringe-worthy Fox News interview ever.
