Earlier this afternoon I announced that I would be on this show, but I have just gotten word that I have been dropped from the show because of "technical issues."
Ibrahim Hooper will still be appearing.

Well, well. The only reason I would even tune in is to hear Robert again. No chance now. At least he will not have to suffer Paula's dimbulb questions.
Too bad...I was hoping to see Robert.
CNN is now definitely on the wrong side - you were dropeed for politicol reasons probably to placate their ME investors - which are considerable - It has been sad to watch the downward spiral of a once first class news channel - now its definitely in the enemy camp
Ibrahim Hooper probably threatened to take his marbles and go home if he had to appear with Mr. Spencer. And, in the biased world of MSM, CAIR gets what it wants. In reality, Hooper is terrified of being exposed by someone who perfectly understands what games he and his fellow thugs are playing with the American people.
I just sent Paula Zahn an email telling her how disappointed I was that the interview would be one-sided. What a shame!
I have sent an email to Paula & Company expressing my disappointment with Hooper still being on if Robert isn't welcome.
Sad indeed as I was looking forward to seeing Robert tear this fella down a tad. But I'm in agreement, he didn't want to have to face that.
It is really pathetic. Robert is probably decades ahead of his time. I think West will still take lot more time to comprehend the situation. More unfortunate fact is that till then not only US will continue to loose it's brave men in uniform and innocent unsuspecting civilians, but the demon will continue to grow, and probably may become too big for the whole world to handle. Could anyone have imagined before a decade that a strong and well trained army of Israel would have such a tough time against Hezbollah.
As far as I know, the liberals, atheists and communist who would dare to deny God publically will be severely persecuted in Islamic countries. Is it not so? Then why the hell do they support these theocratic organizations so much.
Mary Rose wins the prize.

Unbelievable! Paula Zahn is an idiot, and this just reconfirms why I NEVER watch her show.
Robert,
Sorry to hear that the pin-heads at CNN played Dhimmitude to CAIR... I am certain that Ibrahim threw a fit and said something like "Me or Him, but I won't be on here with him (Spencer)"
You are a bright light shining truth... He knows it and doesn't want to be on the defensive.
On an other topic, the September issue of National Geographic arrived here today... Very interesting 5 page interview with a “Voice of Reason” by Karen M. Kostyal… It’s about author Alaa Al Aswany. If you don’t get the NG, let me know where to fax it.

What does 'MSM' stands for?
Holy cow , I've missed a lot! Gotta get off of dial up. I sure wanted Israel to finish the task at hand. Wish I'd known Robert was to be on Paula Zahn, even though I caint stand her. Well cnn sucks too.
No good deed goes unpunished.
Drop Paula for "technical issues." Drop Ibrahim, too. In fact, just run a test pattern, and you'd have a rare, unbiased hour on CNN.

What does 'MSM' stands for?
Main stream media
Saw clips Robert on a PBS show two nights ago where a member of the American University staff (Islamic studies) was trying to refute every statement of Robert's and claiming that there does indeed exist a "moderate islam". Wasn't too convincing to me. Would have been more believable if Robert had had a chance to rebut each of the professor's points.
Keep up the fantastic, enlightening work, Jihad Watch!
Given the time of the post, they gave Mr. Spencer, what? Maybe an hour and a half notice. It would be different if they were pre-empting the whole segment.
I usually watch Bill O'Reilly during this time--not perfect, but at least he realizes there is a growing "Islamo-Fascist" threat.
I wonder what Zahn and Hooper will have to say. I doubt they will mention that there was to be another point of view presented.
Why am I not suprised
CNN = Communist News Network.
Its a shame CNN, BBC all used to be great channels, and Islam used to be peacefull..its not fair!
Or alternatively:
Caliphate News Network.

CNN Int'l snubs Israeli civilians

Mr. Hooper is all the "fair and balanced" they care to be. I think I'll watch the dogs go at it in the front yard instead. Anyone got a hose?

I am so sick of the talking heads kissing muslim butt. This morning on Fox and Friends E.D. Hill was giving sympathy to a muslim politician because a guy was demonstrating in front of the muslim's house. The Muslim ppolitician has a Christian wife. He emphasized that she is a Christian, so how could he possibly be a bad guy? Nobody understands that islam is not a nice religion, just like nazism is not a nice world view.
I'm sure Paula will be so sweet to Dougie,that all who watch will just love him ♥
That's a good quiz. I hope it gets around.
Well lets see. I like bacon, fat back,pork rinds and a coke, hot sausage, weiners and kraut. Gosh I even believe in Israel, well I'll be darned. I'm anti mooosliiiiiiiiiimmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeee.
you dont have to wonder why FOX is so far ahead of the game as compared to CNN, and all other of the newsworks shows.
and it does not surprise me that there is a poor excuse for not having Robert on that show. it would be interesting to ask what was the problem? curious minds would like to know.
I actually thought it was more likely Paula al-Zahn was going to call Robert an Islamophobe first anyway.
And what with you so ready for your close-up.
That stupid blond is more worried about her "sexy" image being the head anchor on the Commie network than the issues that threaten the free world. Soon the ditz will be wearing her own burqua...with designer colors.
Maybe she felt threatened that she would lose control because Robert is so well informed about the Religion of pieces.
Here's the place to put your comments:

Keep it civil.
Except for thre occasional Troll that shows up here, y'all are preaching to the choir.
I just wrote this to Zahn-
I understand that Robert Spencer was to appear with Ibrahim Hooper on Paula Zahn's show-but Spencer was canceled. It's an example of the kind of pc that dominates the media.
As Senator Chuck Schumer has noted, CAIR has known jihadist terrorist connections. Believe me, CAIR Muslims would love to do to Israel the kind of genocidal work that Arab-Muslims are now doing to Negro Africans in Darfur. It's time for you folks to wake up.

What a clown.
Hooper had not one thing of substance to say.
I don't think he ever answered one question directly.
Did you get a load of that hat?
All he needs is a bow-tie that spins!
I expressed my discontent with Paula Zahn at the above website (thanks Pelayo), however it is not helpful (and in fact it is childish, spiteful and immature) to call it the Communist News Network or Caliphate News Network.
And who ever said that the Arabs own a considerable part of CNN please provide proof..
And how can you diss CNN if the Arabs own a part of it, and worship Fox and Oreilly (who called people who opposed the Dubai Ports Deal..Islamophobes), when Prince Walid bin Talal does in fact own enough of Fox (or Murdoch's business) to influence programming (24) and Headlines.
The above can be proven google Walid bin Talal Murdoch or Walid bin Talal Fox.
There is certainly a problem at CNN, but there is a problem at Fox as well.. all Cable and MSM channels and sources are tainted.
And BTW, if a News channel or paper does not appear to be fair and balanced, the reporters can't even get into the country and that source is lost.
In the last couple days Three of Fox's reporters have been kidnapped (two in Lebanon and one in Gaza) and Fox has to rely now on Sky News (Murdoch's English version of Fox) for news from Lebanon and Gaza.. why would that be? Perhaps Murdoch and Sky are a little more Islamofriendly in England, as percentage wise they are a greater portion of the population and have more influence in England than the U.S... They even have Muslim "Lords" and A muslim commodore soon to be Admiral.
In England Fox or Murdoch plays one game, while in America it plays another.. in both cases it plays up to the needs and prejudices of constitutents.
Zahn is a ditz, so no big loss there.
BTW, it's better to address criticisms to networks heads, like Jon Klein (jon.klein@turner.com) rather that to the hired help.
Anyway, C-span is running spots about Robert's appearance on Sunday. It's ON!
http://qanda.org/Program/?ProgramID=1086
Do you suppose that Paula is as stupid as she looks? I mean, that look on her face, not much of a spark in those eyes. Maybe all the dye she's put on her hair over the years has seeped through her scalp into her brain sac.
Alert; hooper may need some accessories such as big red shoes, a bulbous red nose, and a rainbow wig. fox and zahn may need some nards.
England... has a muslim commodore soon to be Admiral.
It is unimaginable to me that the British Navy has fallen into the hands of a Moslem. This is the ultimate humiliation. England ran the world out of Portsmouth, now a Moslem is sitting atop Portsmouth.
Lord Nelson must be spinning in his grave like a top.
FNC did the right thing by firing Paula when they did, although Greta's no improvement.
savitch, I scored 24. I don't use a piggy-bank - I'm enough of a nerd to offer exact change, or approximate change that ensures I don't get pennies if I can help it.
Nariz-- I actually didn't mention Fox News when calling CNN the Caliphate News Network. I agree with you; they're like Coke and Pepsi-- all that competition over 99% of the same ingredients.
While news was breaking fast and furious with the Israel-Hezbollah war, I tried switching back and forth between them, clicking over to the other when either network's coverage annoyed me. It went like this:
Click... grumble. Click... grumble. Click... grumble. Click... grumble... off.
It's really great to see so many new names commenting here. It just means that the word is getting out.
CNN should be boycotted, telling the network why. It is the least patriotic Americans can do. I for onw, have boycotted CNN already.
Anyone needing info to send to al-Zahn about CAIR should visit Andrew Whitehead's site at
http://www.anti-cair-net.org/
"CAIR does not support these groups publicly."
(Ibrahim Hooper's comment on CAIR's record of supporting Hamas, Hezbullah and other official terrorist groups)
"I wouldn't want to create the impression that I wouldn't like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future...But I'm not going to do anything violent to promote that. I'm going to do it through education."
- Ibrahim Hooper
And don't forget that amazing flop of a lawsuit CAIR had against Whitehead that was dismissed and left ACAIR free to say:
* “Let there be no doubt that CAIR is a terrorist supporting front organization that is partially funded by terrorists, and that CAIR wishes nothing more than the implementation of Sharia law in America.”
* CAIR is an “organization founded by Hamas supporters which seeks to overthrow Constitutional government in the United States and replace it with an Islamist theocracy using our own Constitution as protection.”
* “ACAIR reminds our readers that CAIR was started by Hamas members and is supported by terrorist supporting individuals, groups and countries.”
* “Why oppose CAIR? CAIR has proven links to, and was founded by, Islamic terrorists. CAIR is not in the United States to promote the civil rights of Muslims. CAIR is here to make radical Islam the dominant religion in the United States and convert our country into an Islamic theocracy along the lines of Iran. In addition, CAIR has managed, through the adroit manipulation of the popular media, to present itself as the ‘moderate' face of Islam in the United States. CAIR succeeded to the point that the majority of its members are not aware that CAIR actively supports terrorists and terrorist supporting groups and nations. In addition, CAIR receives direct funding from Islamic terrorists supporting countries.”
* “CAIR is a fundamentalist organization dedicated to the overthrow of the United States Constitution and the installation of an Islamic theocracy in America.”

This is a list that is proven legally defensible and should be memorized and frequently quoted by JW readers at every opportunity.
I waited for an hour to see Robert Spencer on the Paula Zahn show, and all I got was a red/gray bearded Muslim loudmouth.
There is the story about a French grammarian who, dying, said to those sitting anxiously by his bed "Je meurs. Je suis en train de mourir. Both are correct." (The very last words of dying foreigners are always delivered in English).
Well, there is "canceled" and then there is "cancelled." Both, as the French grammarian whispered to his acolytes sitting in that ruelle long ago, are correct. But the latter looks much nicer in print, and doubling the final consonant in such cases is a rule my sixth grade teacher told me to live by, and so I will, until death do us -- the English language and me -- part, or unless Henry Fowler or my mother decides to tell me differently.
Well, they must be very much less so in the US, if you've noticed a difference, because there seems no doubt that Sky are much better and fairer than the BBC in this respect. I don't take it myself, but general report is that it is so. I noticed that Sky were using the M-word when reporting the identity of the plane-bomb plotters, something the BBC avoided doing.
" why would that be? Perhaps Murdoch and Sky are a little more Islamofriendly in England"
I watch both these channels and although they have a common ownership the difference in editorial bias is striking - Skynews was totally biased against the Israelis during the war and Fox, in my opinion was not - why should this be - the only explanation is the intended audience i.e. british and american one courageous and informed the other coawrdly and ignorant - I leave it to you to work out who is who - by the way I am british
Just like the dhimmicrats, they are scared of the truth.
WHat a coincidence. I had a dream last night that Wolf Blitzer of CNN cried bloody murder because he did not want a woman singer in a band at an outdoor concert. The whole station is pompous and effete. They'd rather have that lobster sucking fat bastard American hating muslim on their channel. Shows the real nature of how they despise the politics of the current administration. Obviously, they do not want to upset their huge muslim audience!
My missive to CNN and Ms. Zhan.
I understand that Mr. Robert Spencer who was to appear on your program last night was dropped due to "technical difficulties" yet CNN was able to keep its scheduled appointment with Mr. Ibrahim Hooper of CAIR.
If you truly wanted to report fairly and accurately on the issues of Islam, Muslims and the world stage your staff would have overcome the "technical issues" preventing the non-PC yet educated voice of Mr. Spencer from being heard. As it stands, your reporting have been most one-sided.
Matthew Soden
Two Points First for Truthseeker, Wolf Blitzer was an officer of the American Israel Political Action Committee aka AIPAC and is (despite his attempt to be objective) a Zionist.. so stop dissing Wolf or is your dissing an act out of ignorance or a Hizballah like act of lying propaganda?
Secondly I think I figured out what happened to Mr Spencer's appearance.
Mahdi Bray was notified, got terrified, called CAIR and Ibrahaim Hooper who has more clout called the producers of Paula Zahn, stomped their feet, whined, threatened and accused Mssr Spencer of being a NAZI (aka Islamophobe in their parlance) given that these fascists of Islam have the chutzpah and temerity to project their NAZIism unto Israeli's and call them Zionazi's.
I really think that these talking heads on TV be they Fox, CNN, MSNBC (by the way Tucker Carlson gets it, and from his statements it appears that he reads this website), need a crash course in eduation on Islam by someone other than a Muslim, member of MESA or any other apologist.
If I was head of a major broadcasting company I would schedule at least a one day course for all producers, pundits and talking heads with Mr Spencer.
Last subject, how come no mention of the reporters and photographers from Fox who have been kidnapped in Gaza and Lebanon?
Paula Zahn tried to get two beautiful falcons who had lived in a nest on her apt. building evicted. Pale Male and Lola: I hope you sh*t on her head everyday.
I just went to http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?11 and sent the following message:
---
I was very dissapointed to hear that Robert Spencer was dropped as a guest. His analysis on Islam shines the light of truth on the obfuscation and dissimulation that is so prevalent from terrorist-sympathizing organizations like CAIR (http://www.anti-cair-net.org/).
Can you have Robert Spencer as a guest on your show?
