According to this LA Times story, Steve Winfield, the interpreter for Dan Rather's interview with Saddam Hussein was faking an Arabic accent. What are they thinking over there at CBS? If they really wanted that authentic Arabic sound, couldn't they have aired one of the Iraqi translators, or even found an Arab of their own? I guess it's no surprise that Hollywood does the sinister Arab thing better than Saddam himself!
