Fox News Anchor Brit Hume is urging another scandal-plagued public figure to “turn to the Christian faith;” none other than Osama bin Laden.
Fox News Anchor Brit Hume.Appearing this evening on the Fox News Channel, Hume boldly predicted that the world’s most wanted terrorist could find forgiveness, “make a total recovery and be a great example to the world” by converting to Christianity.
“The Osama bin Laden that emerges, once the news value of masterminding 9/11 dies down, seems to me depends on his faith,” opined Hume. “He’s said to be a Muslim. I don’t think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith.”
Hume had hoped to continue on his tangent, but was interrupted by a Fox Breaking News Alert about a Kalispell, Montana dog that received a jury summons.
The seemingly out-of-place remark comes only days after Hume famously urged Tiger Woods to convert from Buddhism as a way of emerging from the shame of banging a 49-year old woman and pancake house waitress, among many others.
Hume apparently believes Woods would find comfort and fellowship amongst other faith-based adulterers including Bob Allen, Mark Sanford, David Vitter, Ted Haggard, Bob Livingston, Jim Bakker, Larry Craig, Mark Foley, and the Reverend Jesse Jackson.
