What do 9/11 and Indiana’s RFRA law have in common? This front page editorial from the @IndyStar gives us the answer

The entire front page of today’s Indianapolis Star is devoted to their editorial blasting Governor Mike Pence and Indiana’s new RFRA law:

Montel Williams observes, however:

We don’t know what exactly Williams is referring to, but we do know the Indianapolis Star did devote its entire front page to coverage of 9/11. Are these two stories the same???

And it should be noted, the Indianapolis Star printed this op-ed from Indiana University law professor Daniel O. Conkle on how the law is being misinterpreted:
