Brian Kilmeade Clarifies: All Terrorists Who Killed Us On 9/11 Were Muslim
On the morning that followed Bill O’Reilly‘s lively appearance on The View (which lead co-hosts Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg to temporarily walk off the set), Fox & Friends Brian Kilmeade defended O’Reilly by saying that while not all Muslims are terrorists, “all terrorists are Muslim.” Kimeade’s comments received scorn and rebuke, and today he addressed this dust-up by apologizing “if he offended” and further clarified his comment.
Kilmeade’s original comment on O’Reilly’s contentious appearance on The View:
“They were outraged that someone was saying that there was a reason, there was a certain group of people that attacked us on 9/11. It wasn’t just one person, it was one religion. Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims.”
In the predictable dust-up that followed, Fox News exec Bill Shine told Huffington Post that KIlmeade would address this comment on Monday’s program of Fox & Friends, which you can see in the clip below. One could argue that this apology has the least possible amount of contrition, with the passive elocution “I’m sorry about that, if I offended or hurt anybody’s feelings. But that’s it”
He also addressed and clarified his comments on his radio program, which follows the video clip.
