Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt tore into Catholic League president Bill Donohue on Thursday for his scathing criticism of Charlie Hebdo editor Stéphane Charbonnier – who was murdered by Islamist terrorists at his Paris office on Wednesday – calling his comments ”morally offensive” and “repugnant” during a heated back-and-forth.

After an attack by Islamist fundamentalists angry over published Mohammed cartoons killed 12 at Charlie Hebdo’s Paris headquarters, Donohue released a statement claiming “Muslims have a right to be angry” and accusing Charbonnier of being “narcissistic” and partly responsible for his own murder.

In an interview aired on Thursday, Hewitt angrily pushed back against his fellow Catholic. “I’m appalled, and I’m embarrassed, and I’m urging you to rethink this,” he told Donohue.

When the Catholic League head claimed numerous officials in the Catholic hierarchy had called him up to support his statement, Hewitt challenged him to name even one. “You can’t deal with me intellectually, can you?” Donohue shot back. “Now you resort to name-calling.”

“You’re not gong to bully me,” Hewitt said. “Name me one archbishop or cardinal who has called you up and said they stand with this statement, which is morally offensive, repugnant, and embarrassing. It’s a scandal on the Church.”

And on it went from there. Listen to the entire contentious interview here.
