Maddow On ‘Muslim Intern Spy’ Hunt: Sen. Johnny Iselin Lives!

Last night, Rachel Maddow took on the “Muslim intern spy” story we’ve been covering. Unfortunately, she didn’t touch on the real intern spy angle here — that of the man who grew a beard and posed as a Muslim to infiltrate the Council on American-Islamic Relations as an intern.

But she does get in some good Manchurian Candidate references.

Watch the segment with the Washington Post’s Eugene Robinson:
