Truly unbelievable Ben Shapiro is on BBC's Politics Live. He believes most Muslims are radical, is a vile racist about Arabs & his Twitter was visited by the far-right Quebec terrorist 93 times in the month before the shooting
Vile Islamophobia clearly not a barrier for being on

Here is the BBC's response
Here is Shapiro's take on what appears to have been a pre-record with Andrew Neil.
Here is an example of a mainstream journalist astonishingly rejecting that Shapiro is even disturbing or extreme.
Here is a mainstream politician @DouglasCarswell astonishingly calling Shapiro a "broadcasting phenomenon". Either these guys are not aware of the racism & Islamophobia, or they dismiss it. Worrying.
For Carswell, it appears it is that he dismisses it.
Note his initial tweet was positive about Shapiro: "I hope Shapiro....eat the BBC's breakfast" & "Shapiro shows up the brain dead BBC", demonstrating his "broadcasting phenomenon" comment was not merely factual but supportive
