The US Army would of received a grant from the Natioinal Endowment.Right! Great thinking!
Say, we could take this idea and run with it.
Think about it: No more military appropriation bills. Just call those B2 formations 'Stealth Art' and get money from the NEA!

A Newsweek retraction at this point requires a great deal more in terms of validity. Firing Isikoff and Barry immediately would be a good start ...

What good will this do? People have already died and our country's reputation has taken another hit because of their treasonous article. This should NOT be the end of the story.

John Gibson is talking about this right now. Newsweek-"If it didn't happen, we'll make it up no matter what the cost!"

$50 says Newsweak will resurrect Abu Ghraib to try to push this off the radar. Or perhaps Rathergate. Or perhaps an affair between John F'n Skerry & Oprah (single rich woman).
To: kcvl
Another example of uncaring Journalistic pride.
Sorry, please continue to buy our leftist unscrupulous magazine!

Question: Given the story was retracted, is Newsweek obligated to protect the source of this false story?

Did he phrase it like this?
"CNN is sadly reporting that Newspuke has retracted the story of the desecration of the Koran at GiTMO."

Whoever was just on Fox said that journalists have a duty to report the news, but no DUTY TO REPORT THE TRUTH.
I love that sentence.

Reese Schonefeld, CNN news founder, said he wouldn't have run this story no matter how many sources he had.
