Here now, I would like to bring the case of another individual, who is yet to be become a household name in the world. This man, just because of his ideological stand against social injustice, religious extremism, Jihad and religious hatred, is continuing to face sedition, treason and blasphemy charges in his own country (Bangladesh) since 2003. And, till date, he has skipped the precious attention of Oprah Winfrey. Who knows, if Oprah would only know about him and show any interest, when he is already murdered by Islamist militants in his own country or awarded death penalty by the court, where trial into the sedition case brought against him is continuing.

Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury is an award winning anti Jihadist Muslim journalist in Bangladesh. He is the editor of Weekly Blitz. This newspaper has both print and online edition reaching mostly policymakers, politicians, entrepreneurs, students, think tanks, civil and millitary officials, clergies and cross section of people in the world. Weekly Blitz is the largest and most infleutial English language newspaper published in Bangladesh. Online edition of the only anti Jihadist newspaper in the Muslim world is available online on www.weeklyblitz.net
Being a fan and admirer of Oprah Winfrey, can I expect this time that her people will call Mr. Choudhury while he is in United States and bring his case to the attention of millions of Oprah viewers around the world? Can I expect reporters and crews of CNN, Fox, CBS and other American media outlets to interview him as well stand in support of their fellow journalist during the most difficult time? Is it something too much I am asking for?
