Backlash Grows As US Universities Cancel or Postpone 'Honor Diaries' Film
Watch the latest video at FoxNews.com
On Tuesday's Kelly File, host Megyn Kelly discussed the pressure by outside groups on universities wishing to air the new film, Honor Diaries, to cancel their showings.
The film describes the plight of women under the 'honor system' in some Muslim socieites. Some of the backlash stems from accusations that the film is 'Islamophobic'.
Groups cited as those reportedly trying to cancel the screenings include the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), whose Chicago-based representative Agnieszka Karoluk debated the controversy with human rights attorney Brooke Goldstein.
