WHAT: Groups to Protest Treasonous Reporting by New York Times at Washington, D.C. Bureau on Monday

WHEN: Monday, July 3 at 12 p.m.

WHERE: 1627 I Street NW, Washington, D.C.

The D.C. Chapter of FreeRepublic.com, an independent grassroots conservative organization, and Accuracy in Media (AIM) will hold a demonstration at noon, Monday, July 3, at the Washington, D.C., bureau of The New York Times, 1627 I St., NW, to call for the prosecution of New York Times publisher Arthur Sulzberger, Jr., Executive Editor Bill Keller and reporters James Risen and Eric Lichtblau for giving aid and comfort to al Qaeda by publishing stories exposing national security intelligence programs.

Despite pleadings from the federal government and Democrat and Republican members of the 9/11 Commission, The Times recently published a report detailing lawful surveillance of international banking transactions that was employed to prevent terror attacks.

This report followed The Times' publication last year exposing the federal government’s NSA surveillance of international based phone and electronic communications aimed at preventing terror attacks. Incredibly, The Times was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for that story.

When confronted at the April 2006 annual Times meeting by AIM editor Cliff Kincaid about the NSA story, Sulzberger said that he and his editors "made the decision that, in the battles between civil liberties on the one hand and national security on the other, civil liberties won."

To which Kincaid responded, "Whose civil liberties are you talking about? Certainly not the civil liberties of those Americans who are possible victims of a terrorist attack carried out by the terrorists who are under surveillance. So whose civil liberties are you protecting in this case by going public and alerting our enemies as to what we're doing?"

Kristinn Taylor, co-leader of the D.C. Chapter of FreeRepublic.com said of The Times, "As a military family member, I find it appalling that The New York Times would place the lives of soldiers in the field and civilians at home in danger by giving our national security secrets to al Qaeda. Suzlberger, Keller, Risen and Lichtblau are nothing more than ink stained enemy combatants who should be prosecuted for treason."

Hope you have a large turnout on the 10th. This bump is for the Tri-State Chapter!

[firebrand]

Thanks, Angelwood! Wish we could have joined forces somehow for this one, but this way you guys can host the DC speakers and we'll host ours. Good luck on Monday.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

I wish I wasn't between night shifts that day. :-(

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

What about the WSJ bureau? And the Post?

Don't forget the L.A. Times. Oh, that's right, the New York Times ran with it first. That's a good excuse. /s

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

The NYT was the first to commit treason. All others followed.

If you were playing follow the leader, and the leader jumped off the 14th Street Bridge, would you follow him? "The Times did it First" is a flimsy excuse.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

I recently subscribed to the internet version of the WSJ for a year. I'm not going to ask for my money back; I'll just wait until it's time to renew, then say no thanks and explain why. I bet it pisses them off when people continue to shun them a year from now! HA!

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

However, years ago when Angelwood and Marylander were protesting the NY Times, they were egged by NY Times workers who threw eggs at them from the windows of their offices seven floors above them.

Did the reporters look anything like this guy?

[NordP]

Thanks for posting this!

See tagline ;-)

[NordP]

Read the New York Times "Sedition Edition"

[NordP]

GREAT JOB!! Thanks for posting the link, and all your fine (and very funny) work!!!!! You rule.

[Peach]

Good job, Doug. LOL

[W04Man]

Right, I've printed mine out already!! Anyone Want one?

[W04Man]

Are we still on at Noon tomorrow for this rally?

[kristinn]

Yes, we are. Afterward, we'll take a break and then go have fun with Cindy Sheehan and Code Pink.

[trooprally]

We've also printed that one and several others (two each) from the two NYT threads. They are roughly 15" x 20".

So if someone doesn't have time to make a poster, there will extra posters at the Times rally.

[Mrs] T will bring them on Monday. I can't go, spent too much time printing and mounting the dozen or so posters.

Quick question - are you the author of the 30" x 40" red lettered "Rumsfeld Yes - al Zarqawi No" poster? If so, any chance of getting it back to you so you can put Zarqawi's replacement on it. Not permanently, who knows how long he'll be around.

[Mr] T

[W04Man]

No, that one about Rummy & Al Zarq is NOT mine. I don't recall seeing it.

Bump and Elect Diana Irey

[3D-JOY]

Planning to be there...

Meet Mrs. T this time?

[3D-JOY]

BUMP

I am pleased to see the support for her...does she have a good chance to beat him? ...with the local voters?

[W04Man]

Yes, Diana has a "good" chance to beat him. Coop has some statistics he could share with you about voting in the district, but momentum is building in the district even while us outside are providing increasing support. She needs all the financial help she can get from outside. She is knocking on doors and doing her best inside the District. If you know of anyone who might contribute, please contact them.
