Muslim Converts and Media
I decided not to run this story on my VOA website after a snafu over a similar radio story, which brought a torrent of emails, and in office recommendations.
It's not self-censorship, but it was more a comment on other U.S. media, so I wasnt sure it was so relevant in an international context.
Everyone always distorts, that is nothing new. A Muslim convert is not news per se, there are converts in every direction every day. Still, I thought it was interesting, and I also felt Hazel Gomez, the star of this video, is very eloquent ....
