BSAlertCan it be so easily demonstrated why the American media has completely turned its back on journalism? Check it out… Here is the current cover of Newsweek across various areas of the world.

Meanwhile the foreign issues note, Five years after the Afghan invasion, the Taliban are fighting back hard, carving out a sanctuary where they—and Al Qaeda’s leaders—can operate freely.

I guess Newsweek figures what you don’t know can’t hurt you. Just shut up and look at the pretty pictures of Angelina’s baby.

FOX News Exposes Princeton / Diebold Vote-Reversal Story

HUGO CHAVEZ, VENEZUELAN PRES. (through translator): The hypothesis that is gaining strength, which was said on television last night, and which could soon blow up, was that it was the same U.S. imperial power that planned and carried out this terrible terrorist attack, or act, against its own people and against citizens all over the world. Why? To justify the aggression that was immediately unleashed on Afghanistan, on Iraq and the threats against all of us, against Venezuela, too.

From subtle shifts to complete transformations, the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, changed the lives of millions of Americans.

First, of course, there were those who faced the devastation of losing family and friends, as well as those who witnessed the attacks or were uprooted from their homes and workplaces in and around the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Then there were the thousands of reservists who were called up to serve in America’s armed forces or made the decision to join up and serve in the armed forces.

And then there are the less obvious effects of being in a country that no longer feels comparatively cushioned from the troubles of the rest of the world.

If your life was transformed in some way by 9/11, we would like to hear from you. As part of a special section marking the fifth anniversary of the worst attack on the United States since Pearl Harbor, we will be featuring the stories of how ordinary Americans were affected by an extraordinary act of hatred.

Scholars for 9/11 Truth
Duluth, MN (PRWEB)  July 21, 2006 —  Bill O’Reilly, the host of “The O’Reilly Factor” on the Fox News Channel, has suggested that Kevin Barrett, an outspoken 9/11 truth activist, belongs “in the Charles River floating down”.  James H. Fetzer, founder and co-chair of Scholars for 9/11 Truth, a non-partisan society of more than 300 members dedicated to exposing falsehoods and revealing truths about 9/11, said that the absence of response from the FCC, Fox News, and the national media speaks volumes about the state of the nation. “When public threats can be made to a citizen’s life for expressing his opinions on a controversial topic and neither the government nor the media respond,” he observed, “that is a sure sign we are living in a fascist state.”

WorldNet Daily
Fox News military analyst Maj. Bob Bevelacqua, a former Green Beret, appearing tonight on “The O’Reilly Factor,” compared Israeli actions in Lebanon and Gaza with Nazi actions in Russia during World War II.

Bevelacqua, a long-time Fox News contributor, said the Israelis were unwilling to compromise in their conflict with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. He denied that the Israelis willingly evacuated from Gaza and Lebanon.

“Saying the Israelis pulled out of Lebanon is like saying the Nazis pulled out of Moscow,” he said. “They invaded Lebanon. They invaded Gaza. They take homes and then they give them back. And they expect some type of great recognition.”

Bill O’Leilly, er I mean O’Reilly, said that he would like to see 9/11 activist Kevin Barrett murdered and thrown into Boston Harbor.

Here’s Kevin’s response:

Dear Mr. Murdoch,

It has come to my attention that one of your announcers, Bill O’Reilly, has stated on national television that he would like to see me murdered and thrown into Boston Harbor.

Since I get so many email death threats I can’t keep track of them (among the 10% of my 9/11-related emails that are negative) this is a pretty inflammatory thing to say. If anything were to happen to me, Fox News would find itself facing the mother of all lawsuits, and my family might very well end up in control of the Murdoch fortune. You
may wish to consider urging your friends in the White House to offer me Secret Service protection. Please assign me the guy who said “we’re out of here” to Bush when the second plane hit the building at 9:04 – not the higher-up who overruled him and kept Bush reading about pet goats while our nation was allegedly under surprise attack. See: http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/9-11secretservice.html. The Secret Service agent who said “we’re out of here” before being overruled was honest. That’s the guy I want protecting my life.

Anyone interested in the truth of 9/11 should check out this clip from the Hannity and Colmes show, where they’re interviewing Professor Kevin Barrett. He’s a professor at the University of Wisconsin and has come under fire recently for bringing up other theories about 9/11 to his students, something the government clearly doesn’t want.

The interview itself is pretty funny…Fox news tripping over itself trying to pin this guy down and accuse him of things, while he just tells it like it is.

Here’s the link.
