In reference to that groups thing of it's women wearing long skirts etc. I guess something could be made of it if you are looking hard to fault her.

More on Amanpour's dhimwittedness: The point of CNN's religious fundamentalism series.
It's a snipe article. It doesn't actually say anything. It doesn't even say what the hit is based on. So she doesn't have a masters in Middle Eastern History is all I got from that.
Funny thing about it is that the series hasn't even aired yet and she's being chopped for it. Kind of looses any credibility it might have had whatever it was supposed to be.
