Men Without Chests: How C.S. Lewis Predicted Charlie Hebdo CensorshipGotta love the fact that CNN suddenly has "respect for religion". Well, at least the one religion which will come through the door with AKs and kill them all. Full cowardly appeasement in action. Remember the days when the media stood up for the First Amendment?
"Following the Charlie Hebdo attack, CNN allegedly issued a memo to staff detailing what types of images and words would be banned by the network and what would be allowed:'Although we are not at this time showing the Charlie Hebdo cartoons of the Prophet considered offensive by many Muslims, platforms are encouraged to verbally describe the cartoons in detail. This is key to understanding the nature of the attack on the magazine and the tension between free expression and respect for religion.Where to begin? For starters, note that the network is apparently afraid of even using the word Muhammad. Instead, the Islamic religious figure is referred to by CNN merely as “the Prophet.” Not a prophet. And not even the prophet. “The Prophet,” with a capital P."
Video or stills of street protests showing Parisians holding up copies of the offensive cartoons, if shot wide, are also OK. Avoid close-ups of the cartoons that make them clearly legible.
It’s also OK to show most of the protest cartoons making the rounds online, though care should be taken to avoid examples that include within them detailed depictions of the Charlie Hebdo cartoons.'

If we say that the sane can be coaxed and persuaded to rationality, and we say that rationality presupposes logic, then what can we say of those who actively reject logic?

Atheists have an obligation to give reasons in the form of logic and evidence for rejecting Theist theories.

CNN Goes Full Sharia: Cowardly Network News
CNN dictates the terms of hiding insults to Islam, referring to The Prophet as the only prophet, and shaking in their boots in fear of retribution from their own Victimhood Category Muslims.
