Tonight, March 22, 2011, Ayman Mohyeldin, Middle East correspondent from Al Jhazeera English, stopped by as the guest on the Colbert Report. The main focus of their interview revolved around Al Jhazeera’s efficiency and credibility in reporting international news. Colbert spoke about the lack of Al Jhazeera’s partnership with American Cable networks, and the preconceived notions many ordinary Americans may have of the network based on their exclusive coverage of Al Qaeda news and video press. Ayman spoke about how Al Jhazeera can benefit many Americans who crave international news that affect them personally, but lack an efficient means to receive it. During the broadcast, Colbert questioned Ayman about his religion, and the Muslim community could not have had a better spokesman.
