Octavia Nasr - Arab correspondant fired!

[alf2]

Octavia Nasr was a correspondant for CNN, primarily for the Middle East. She is from Lebanon but moved to America later in life. She worked for CNN since 1990 but lost her job this week :girl3:

When Mohammad Hussein Fadlallah died, Nasr "tweeted" her condolences saying "Sad to hear of the passing of Sayyed Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah… One of Hezbollah's giants I respect a lot."

Assalaam walaikum,

She is in a better place now. CNN is not a place that welcomes Muslims. This is probably a blessing in disguise. Tust me, on this one.

i think she was a b tbh. during that flotilla massacre she was on tv but couldnt utter a word of condemnation for israel.
i think she was probably drunk when she tweeted those words.

Well, she was paid to keep "neutral" to Middle Eastern conflict between the Arab countries & Israel.
