They spent all of 5 seconds telling us about that story.
A few minutes later the show then spent 20 minutes doing an "EXCLUSIVE" live interview with Charlie Sheen and knew their audience would all be riveted by the personal drug, sex and divorce issues that this major TV star is having.
So on the one hand you have a hinge country like Pakistan systematically murdering any Christians who dare to speak out..a country that VERY EASILY could lead the world into WWIII...a country that already has nuclear missiles ready to launch and Muslim extremists getting closer every day to the launch codes....and the Today Show gives that story 5 seconds so they can quickly get on to the Charlie Sheen story that consumes 20 minutes.
We have now officially entered the Stupid Zone.
For those who want to read more about Pakistan falling into extremists hands and the overnight murder of one of the last Christian lawmakers willing to speak up....you can read this tragic story here; http://www.voanews.com/english/news/asia/Gunmen-Kill-Pakistani-Minorities-Minister-117226408.html
The slain minister belonged to the ruling party of President Asif Ali Zardar and was the only Christian member of the federal cabinet.
Bhatti had been threatened by Muslim extremists for speaking out against Pakistan’s controversial blasphemy law.
Police are reported to have seized Taliban-linked leaflets from the scene of the attack warning opponents of the Islamic law of blasphemy will meet Bhatti’s fate. In a VOA interview last month, the Pakistani minister had spoken about threats to his life, but vowed not to bow down before the extremist forces.
"This extremism is dangerous for the stability of the country," Bhatti said. "It is the time that the people of different faiths and the Pakistani nation stand united against the forces of intolerance, against the forces of violence. The blasphemy law is being misused to victimize the innocent people of Pakistan."
