***EMERGENCY PROTEST OF NEWSWEEK MAGAZINE***

5/16/05 | Starfan

[StarFan]

Outraged Freepers in the Tri State area are asked to join us in protesting Newsweek Magazine tonight. We will meet at the Newsweek Building, between 56th & 57th Street at 4:45 p.m. onward.

Signs are welcome.

If I could bring before you iron clad evidense that the war in Iraq was trumped up and it would not make a difference. So, I am not even going to bother. I have not the time to waste, nor the inclination to continue to beat my head against the wall.

At least Zacs Mom has gone through the effort to document these things, which BTW are often linked to other external documents outside of FR. You, my friend, are unwilling to produce anything to counter this information. We are to accept your 'word' as authoritative. You decry bloodshed,and we are in the fight. Yet you support Newsweek's efforts that endanger the lives of our soldiers and our efforts to gain the confidence of nations in the islamic world. In your opinion it is better that more of our soldiers die in order to justify your unjust war opinions. You want us to fight this war to lose, not to win.

Holy Crap!
Longest.
Post.
Ever.

The MSM doesn't like how we can footnote, offer rebuttal, and timelines to events. It is great having the power to recall past reports.

[Borges]

The opening line of that post should have been 'Call Me Ishmael'.

I'm in the other Washington, but I am with you in spirit. Also I think all of us should write to our senators and ask that the media be held accountable.

I learned in high school journalism that you had to have 3 sources before you could publish your story. To think how much fun has been poked at the Enquirer and the MSM isn't any better.

Your wife's nephew or your dentist's neighbor's uncle?

"This account has been banned or suspended."

ZOT.

And after surviving since November 2001.

[MeekOneGOP]

Bye, MJM59.

"He's dead, Jim!"

[StarFan]

What did I miss?

Supremes elected GWB in 2000. That should cover it all.

[Godzilla]

Ah, delicious.

[VRWCmember]

But to hold them to a higher standard than you would your own government is just wrong. I expect more from our leaders than what we are getting. But, if you want to let Bush slide on the whole "try and scare the pants off of the world for Iraq's WMDs" that is your perogative. I think that he and his administration did a half @$$ed job in doing their homework prior to the war.

Only a complete IDIOT would equate Newsweek's ONE ANONYMOUS SOURCE as a higher standard than the combined intelligence information of the US and EVERY SINGLE NATION on the UN Security Council.

[Republican Wildcat]

A sleeper account.

[MeekOneGOP]

Yep!

And it took a while, and a couple of Freepers
bangin' away at him, but .....

"He's dead, Jim!"

:)

"The MSM doesn't like how we can footnote, offer rebuttal, and timelines to events. It is great having the power to recall past reports."

:) I agree. We are b*tchslapping the MSM everyday.
That's the thing about liberals that most people don't understand: they are extremely sensitive to criticism. That is why they hold all of their PC beliefs, is because the "bubble" that they've been encapsulated in (universities, news environment) have pressured and propagandized them into thinking this way.

[Stellar Dendrite]

"The opening line of that post should have been 'Call Me Ishmael'."

LMAO!!!!

[weegee]

Ah but some of the media sources we have exposed as liars have since said that FR cannot even link to their articles (USA Ptooey among them).

We aren't just prohibited from excerpting them.

What are they afraid of?

Someone should take out an ad in a major daily paper listing all of the "news" providers that don't want FReepers voicing off on their articles and ask "What are they afraid of?"

Pajama People rule!

[dearolddad]

Perhaps a sign stating: Issikoff should spend less time
J**king off.

[Doctor Raoul]

Can't make it from GA, but make sure someone has a "Newsweek lied, people died" sign.

That will be $5 please...

The "Former Newsweek Reporter - WILL LIE FOR FOOD" sign is $10.

[Doctor Raoul]

Thanks for doing that.

[Doctor Raoul]

So amazed by just how scared you people are. It must be a shame to go through your lives so scared and insecure of every little threat or perceived threat. dubya and his crew sure have done a good job at keeping you all wetting your pants on a regular basis. May I suggest Depends for the next three years or so.

Your fascination with excretment betrays you as a liberal.
