\u201cYou can\u2019t say that. You\u2019re fired.\u201d\u00a0Prize-winning Washington journalist Juan Williams was unceremoniously dismissed by NPR for speaking his mind and saying what many Americans feel\u2014that he gets nervous when boarding airplanes with passengers dressed in Muslim garb. NPR banished the veteran journalist in an act of political correctness that ultimately sparked nationwide outrage and led to calls for Congress to end its public funding of the media organization.<\/p>\n

In Muzzled<\/i>, Williams uses his very public firing as a launching pad to discuss the countless ways in which honest debate in America\u2014from the halls of Congress and the health care town halls to the talk shows and print media\u2014is stifled. In today\u2019s partisan world, where media provocateurs rule the airwaves and political correctness dictates what can and cannot be said with impunity, Williams shows how the honest exchange of ideas and the search for solutions and reasonable compromise is deliberately muzzled.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Cooper Lee was at a crossroads. Her boyfriend of five years had just left her for another woman, she was living in an apartment above her parents\u2019 garage, and her job as a copier repairperson was feeling a little, well, repetitious. Hoping for a fresh start and a new outlook on life, she joins the Bible study group at Hope Street Church. The last thing she expects while studying the Bible is a lesson in murder.<\/p>\n

When Brooke Hughes, the woman who first invited Cooper to Hope Street, is found murdered in her home, all signs point to her husband as the culprit. But Wesley Hughes was an elder at Hope Street Church, and the members of the Bible study are filled with disbelief that such a kind and loving man could take a life, much less his wife\u2019s. Unwilling to let an innocent man and friend be railroaded into prison, the Bible group decides to investigate on their own.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
