Complaint to the CBC

Reader comment on item: York University and Campus Watch

I would like to show you my letter of complaint I sent to the CBC after Dr. Pipes' interview with Anna Maria Tremonti.

Dear Current,

I could not believe that I would hear such un-Canadian behaviour coming from a CBC interviewer. Anna Maria Tremonti was belligerent and antagonistic to a guest, interrupting his answers to such an extent that listeners were not given the chance to actually hear all he had to say.

In fact, nothing he said contradicted what a previous CBC guest had said about the danger of Islamo-fascism to world peace. That guest was the Lebanon-born Middle East scholar, Dr. Fouad Ajami.

Sincerely,
Alex P. Korn
Submitting....
