Norway Welcomes Their New Overlords - Update: 'Fashion Show' is Actually an Art Project, But ABC News Doesn't Mention It - Update: It Really IS a Fashion Show!

Norway eagerly submits to the suppression of women, and ABC News helps with yet another sick, whitewashed series of excuses for misogyny: The Burqa Gets a Makeover.

Opening with this ludicrous statement:

The burqa is the wardrobe of choice for many Muslim women.

Wow. Here’s an interesting update to this story, emailed by reader Kristian. It appears that this Norwegian “fashion show” is actually an art project, mocking the burqa—not seriously promoting it—and several Muslims watching the show were angry and humiliated.

ABC News does not even hint at this in their captions; they present it as a perfectly serious fashion show!

Here’s another photo that makes this extremely clear:

You’re not going to believe this.
