'Real Time' Panel Confronts Maher on Islam
After Affleck
John Avlon, Cornel West, Mary Matalin revisit Maher's Islam clash with Ben Affleck
HBO
'Real Time' host Bill Maher has turned down so many interview requests to talk about his October 3rd on-air clash with Ben Affleck over comments that 'Islam has too much in common with ISIS,' he boasted about it on his show. Nevertheless, Maher's October 24th 'Real Time' panel—including Daily Beast Editor-in-Chief John Avlon, Dr. Cornel West, and Mary Matalin—continued the conversation.
