WTSP Channel 10 in Tampa Bay aired a primetime, unopposed interview with the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) Tampa executive director Hassan Shibly on of all days 9-11. http://www.wtsp.com/video/1834771229001/53153651001/Interview-Hassan-Shibly-with-CAIR
The top propaganda engineered by the reporter’s first question lead to Hassan Shibly to say that CAIR has “no connections with terrorism.”
However, the facts indicate that CAIR, formerly known as “The Islamic Organization of Palestine” was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the biggest terrorist financing case of all time and numerous CAIR officials have acted as apologists for and publicly defended terrorists.
News9.com reported on March 30, 2012 “Former CIA Director James Woolsey told a group in Oklahoma City that CAIR is an extremist Muslim group with ties to terrorists and is named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the federal case U.S. vs. the Holy Land Foundation which “is the biggest terrorist financing case of all time.” http://www.news9.com/story/17299122/former-cia-director-talks-terrorism-in-okc Current and past executive directors of CAIR Tampa have defended jihadists and terrorists. Hassan Shibly granted legitimacy to Hizballah following the 2006 Israel-Lebanon War by characterizing it as a "resistance movement" that provides valued social services to the Lebanese people. "They're absolutely not a terrorist organization," Shibly said, and "any war against them is illegitimate." On his Facebook page, Shibly defended a radical imam killed by the FBI after he opened fire on agents moving in to arrest him. In an October 2009 post, Shibly questioned the use of force against Imam Luqman Abdullah even though the criminal complaint against him made it clear Abdullah advocated violent jihad and urged followers never to surrender peacefully to authorities. Former CAIR Tampa Executive Director Ahmed Bedier defended renowned convicted terrorist fundraiser Sami Al-Arian when he told The Tampa Tribune “Al-Arian did not agree to admit to any charges associated with terrorism” and "There is no conspiracy to support terrorism." Additionally, Ahmed Bedier defended Ahmed Mohamed who was arrested on August 4, 2007 in South Carolina for allegedly possessing pipe bombs. Mohamed was sentenced to 15 years for his offense. Bedier said "We have faith in the American judicial system.” So far we've only heard and read about vague language describing an explosive device, but no actual evidence. Until that's displayed it's going to be unclear what's going on."
What did WTSP do with the side of the story that CAIR doesn’t want people to hear? They censored it by giving Hassan Shibly unopposed commentary and at primetime. The interview wrongly denied CAIR’s terrorist ties, glamorized CAIR and applauded CAIR’s access to Tampa public school students.
Please do not support WTSP’s blatantly biased reporting with your company’s advertising dollars.
I look forward to your reply.

First Email alert September 13, 2012 CBS TV affiliate WTSP gave CAIR unopposed interview during prime time on 9-11 denying terrorist ties, glamorizing CAIR and applauding access to Tampa public school students. WTSP Channel 10 in Tampa Bay aired a primetime, unopposed interview with the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) Tampa executive director Hassan Shibly on of all days 9-11. CAIR officials, including Hassan Shibly, have been at the center of debate in Tampa because the Hillsborough County School Board allowed them to make unfettered presentations to hundreds of students regarding Sharia and Islamic advocacy. Hassan Shibly, CAIR Tampa Executive Director, went unopposed as he dished out his propaganda for several minutes. The top propaganda engineered by the reporter’s first question lead to Hassan Shibly to say that CAIR has “no connections with terrorism.” However, the facts indicate that CAIR, formerly known as “The Islamic Organization of Palestine”, was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the biggest terrorist financing case of all time and numerous CAIR officials have acted as apologists for and defended terrorists. News9.com reports, “Former CIA Director James Woolsey told a group in Oklahoma City that CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) is an extremist Muslim group with ties to terrorists. Woolsey said CAIR, once called “The Islamic Organization of Palestine”, is named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the federal case U.S. vs. the Holy Land Foundation which “is the biggest terrorist financing case of all time.” Current and past executive directors of CAIR Tampa have defended jihadists and terrorists.
Shibly's online profile also features American-born Islamic cleric Khalid Yasin as an "Interest." Yasin is known for his controversial views, including a 2005 interview in which he says that Muslims cannot be friends with non-Muslims; that suicide bombings are understandable; and that the U.S. orchestrated 9/11 to wage a war against Islam. "There's no such thing as a Muslim having a non-Muslim friend," he said. "If you prefer the clothing of the kafirs [disbelievers] over the clothing of the Muslims, most of those names that's on most of those clothings is (sic) faggots, homosexuals and lesbians." Yasin goes further, encouraging children to take up the "honor" of throwing stones and confronting Israeli soldiers when there are no more men left to do it.
What did WTSP do with the side of the story that CAIR doesn’t want people to hear? They censored it. WTSP made one thing absolutely clear by giving Hassan Shibly several minutes to present his unfettered, unopposed propaganda. That is, they consider only his point as important in this public debate. WTSP glamorized CAIR with the following television screen graphics.   Truly, Islamists' best friends are found in America's mainstream media. The following companies advertised on the WTSP web site during the past couple of days: Ford Motor Company (Escape), Humana, Nordstorm (Hautelook), MetroPCS, Pfizer (Advil), Reeves Imports, State Farm, Target, TECO Zap Cap Systems, Toyota Camry and Vanguard Group.
