Michael Graham, a longtime friend of (and contributor to) NRO, has been fired from his D.C.-area ABC talk-radio job for remarks he made about Islam and terrorism. What Michael said was unfortunate–Islam is a terror organization–and not something I (or NR) would defend. I don’t think an apology would have been inappropriate. Still, it’s a shame that Michael, who is a smart guy who very often makes excellent points, is out of a job. And it’s frustrating that his comments now have the net result of strengthening the hand of the bullies at CAIR, who lobbied the station to suspend and then fire him.
