Is the Associated Press now in the business of cleaning up the more outrageous statements made by CAIR officials like Ibrahim Hooper? It does look that way: AP alters CAIR quote in story about Ayaan Hirsi Ali.
We know that CAIR has focused very intensely on media relations, and it would not surprise me in the least if Hooper managed to get AP writer William C. Mann to alter a quotation after it had gone to print.

The first angry quote from Ibrahim Hooper can still be found at Forbes.com: Critic of Islam Finds New Home in U.S. - Forbes.com. (Hat tip: WriterMom.)
