In a surprising interview — even for Fox News — correspondent Lauren Green challenged religion scholar Reza Aslan’s credentials for writing a book about Jesus Christ because he’s a Muslim.

 

The interview went viral, propelling Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth to the number one spot on Amazon.com. It’s worth watching to see how well-prepared Aslan was for Fox and how well he handled the questions from a “reporter” with an agenda.

To see a friendlier interview, watch John Oliver’s interview of Reslan on The Daily Show.

What do you think of the Fox News interview? Did it make you want to buy the book?
