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.

One does not have to look hard. It was elementary.

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.[/quote]
The first half or so is based upon both the CNN trailers available at CNN and Amanpour's past watered down exclusives on subjects touching Islam, Arabs, Israel and the Middle East.

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.

The first part was already broadcast yesterday. Watch every word of this "snipe", as you call it, turn out to be true. Amanpour is simply so predictable.
