Robertsons' comments scrubbed on CBN

Media Matters for America reports that
After 700 Club host Pat Robertson declared that Muslims who protested controversial cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad were "satanic" and "crazed fanatics" who were "motivated by demonic power," adding that "the goal of Islam ... is world domination," the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) program removed Robertson's comments from its website "out of concerns they could be misinterpreted if taken out of context," according to a Robertson spokeswoman who was cited in a March 14 Associated Press report.
Yep, wouldn't want to chance anyone misinterpreting "crazed fanatics". In context, it must have been a perfectly reasonable thing to say.

And what was that context, again?
