CNN host Chris Cuomo just said he thinks that Reza Aslan, a prominent Iranian-American author and commentator who's frequently appeared on CNN, FOX, The Daily Show and elsewhere is 'angry' and demonstrates ‘the hostility’ that makes people afraid of Islam. Here’s the story. During a CNN interview with Reza Aslan on September 29th Alisyn Camerota and Don Lemon discussed what they called the "primitive treatment in Muslim countries of women and other minorities" and asked Aslan if Islam as a religion inherently promotes violence. He answered by saying that the treatment of women and minorities differed in various Muslim countries and that such broad generalizations of a religion with over 1.5 billion people are not only unfair but the definition of bigotry. The interview went viral. That's when CNN host Chris Cuomo referred to Reza Aslan as 'angry' and said Aslan "wound up kind of demonstrating what people are fearful about when they think of the faith, which is the hostility of it." Chris Cuomo is someone who cares deeply about his reputation and has previously responded to criticism - that’s why we think that us coming together to ask for his apology will make him reconsider his words and actions. Will you sign the petition to Chris Cuomo and ask him to apologize? No one denies that there are a those using the name of Islam to commit horrendous crimes. Here’s the thing though. Over the last few years we’ve seen people in this country go on shooting rampages in theaters, in schools and in our streets. Yet no journalist has ever asked ‘does being caucasian or Christian promote violence?’ There is no doubt that there are many troubling crisis happening in numerous places across the world. And that some of the most troubling are taking place in predominantly Muslim countries. However, we’ll never be able to work together as a global community to solve those challenges if our media outlets don’t report the news accurately and instead perpetuate harmful stereotypes. After all, the challenges in Indonesia, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Morocco and Tunisia – all predominantly Muslim countries – vary greatly from one country to another. Yes, I’ll add my name to the petition asking Chris Cuomo to apologize on the right. Everyday people like us play a very important role in foreign policy decisions. We’ve seen our power over and over again when it comes to supporting diplomacy with Iran. What happens in the Middle East is often complex as countries and cultures are different from one another. Journalism is crucial to our democracy and public debate - without an informed citizenry America’s democracy doesn’t function. When it comes to foreign policy discussions, there are literally lives on the line. It’s time we demand more. +++++ References: Watch the original interview (with fact checking) here: http://www.upworthy.com/cnn-asks-an-expert-a-dumb-question-his-answer-kills-it?g=2&c=upw1 Read the media matters report here: http://mediamatters.org/blog/2014/10/03/cnn-host-reza-aslans-tone-demonstrated-why-peop/201008

This website has had many children playing everyday, learning new things and playing different games. It was not just games; but it helped children learn about having a house and money and many things they need to know to be an adult. Sign the petition and let's get the site back up.

I will be 18 soon and start living on my own. I will have a full time job and my own place so why shouldn't i be able to enjoy a drink after a hard days work.

I want to be able to start tanning again like I did three years ago when the age was 14.

My friend will need more financial aid because his mom just lost her job. I think that he should be able to have a little more financial aid than other people. Without more financial aid, a lot of people will not be able to go to college. My dad can no longer work because he was injured on the job and right now, my mom doesn't have a job. I personally, will need more financial aid because my family can't pay for college for me out of their own pocket. Student loans are also a possibility but I also don't want to be in debt coming out of college.

Too many issues and tickets to pay for unnecessary reasoning and the limitations to work and do school sports such as far away games and such.

I am always hungry for some tacos

I am attending high school, and I believe that our school doesn't have as much funding as other schools do. I believe that everyone deserves a proper education with all the tools they need to learn.

I am starting this petition because many people enjoy this event in the fall. So why only hold it once a year? We get a lot of support and its a great turnout. Let's enjoy and have some fun in the spring!

Just 7 weeks before election day, a panel of 3 judges from the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals lifted an injunction, allowing Wisconsin's Voter ID law to go into effect for the November 4th election. Voters who do not have a photo ID that meets the law's requirements will need to obtain an ID card or driver's license through the Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles prior to election day. But there is a catch. Wisconsin has just 92 DMV locations statewide, and 49 of those operate just 2 days a week. Four of those offices are open just 6 days a year, with one open as few as just 3 days during the year. 48 of Wisconsin's 72 counties do not have a DMV office open full-time. Offices in 2 counties are not open at all before election day, and others will be open just 3 times before the November election. That is why we are calling on Department of Transportation officials and Governor Walker to immediately institute expanded business hours, including the addition of some weekend hours, at every DMV location in the state.

Paying more money for someone who throws a football, kicks a soccer ball, hits a baseball instead of someone who fights for our country I think is wrong. People in the military put their own life on the line just to help save us.

As an athletic student, I feel gym class is a waste of time. I would rather be educated and be focused in other areas in school instead of being educated on physical activity, which I do everyday after school on my high school swim team. High school athletic students should be exempt from physical education class if they so wish.
