Author Salman Rushdie, best known for his book Satanic Verses, and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina discussed free speech and last week’s horrific attacks with Bill Maher on Friday night.
Rushdie said it best when he said that what we in the West should do in response to these acts is “not give a f*cking inch.”
Fiorina also made some excellent points, including questioning the media’s sudden outrage, after so many attacks, now that the media itself has become the target. She gets bonus points for calling out Maher for trying to draw a false equivalence between Jews who build houses in disputed areas and terrorists who chop heads off.
