NBC to Islamist: ‘You Do Not Even Represent a Fraction of Muslims Around the World’

‘It is so sickening, so disturbing to hear a group like that exercise their First Amendment rights, Tamron, by saying things like that’

NBC Reporter to Islamic Extremists: 'You Do Not Even Represent A Fraction of Muslims Around the World' (NewsBusters)

In a report aired on Monday's NBC Today, correspondent Keir Simmons spoke with Islamic extremists in Britain acting as apologists for the ISIS terrorists who brutally murdered journalist James Foley. A soundbite played of one man ranting: "The question to ask is, who's really to blame for the death of James Foley? I believe it is the foreign policy of Obama."

Following the taped story, Simmons added: "It is so sickening, so disturbing to hear a group like that exercise their First Amendment rights...by saying things like that. But I said to them directly, 'You do not even represent a fraction of Muslims around the world.'"
