National mag publishes fabricated report attacking Corsi book
WorldNetDaily ^ | 5/18/11 | WorldNetDaily

Posted on 05/18/2011 11:47:30 AM PDT by patriot453

A major national publication that endorsed Barack Obama for president in 2008 today published a completely fabricated news story claiming Jerome Corsi's new best-selling "Where's the Birth Certificate," published by WND Books, has been disavowed by the publisher and taken out of stores nationwide, with refunds offered to purchasers.

Esquire, established in 1932, alleged on its website today under a "BREAKING" headline that Corsi's book was "pulled from shelves!"

Media are calling WND from around the world about the false report.

WND founder and CEO Joseph Farah confirmed he never spoke to Esquire.

"Never uttered these words or anything remotely resembling them to anyone," he said. "It is a complete fabrication."

Farah said, "The book is selling briskly. I am 100 percent behind it. This has all the earmarkings of a White House dirty trick – but, of course, only the Nixon administration was capable of dirty tricks like that, according to our watchdog media."

Damages should be due the publisher, bookstores and the author.

Holy Crap....

These people are losing their minds over this book~!

There must be something more to this than there appears. If the issue was ‘settled’ by the latest BC, it certainly doesnt sound like like they are done with it.

I think the new BC raises more questions than it answers (total fabrication)

It proves the gullibility of so many people —— the article at Esquire was satire.

Go onto Amazon.com and see how available the book is. When I looked, there were 20 new and 3 used copies, plus the Kindle edition. So if someone wants a copy, it's readily available.

The Internet is not the liberal's (or progressive's) friend.

This is becoming SOP for this bastard administration. When the COLB came under question, the powers that be sent JOhn Klein into the fray to pose the big lie that all paper docs had been destroyed when the electronic filing began, even had poor ol’ Lou Dobbs repeat that lie on air! Now, when the latest forgery comes under scrutiny and fails, the axelgreasy squad of liars in media begin fabricating stories to dissemble the reality. Corsi’s book must raise issues that barry the bastard wants to remain unaddressed, else he would not be sending fools in media out to fall on their swords writing gross lies to create smoke, lots of smoke.

Perhaps Farah set these guys up so he could get some free publicity.

It was a joke and satire by the editor.

He did in a klutzy way but he totally meant is a joke.

This helps keeps the issue alive, front and center. And who benefits the most from that?

If you can’t work out that it is a spoof (especially with the moon landing bit) then you need help.

Many clearly do need help and the fact that they vote democRAT proves it.

While this is clearly satire it will be and already has been accepted as truth by many. So Esquire gets to present their point and escapes prosecution in civil court because it is satire. It's a win-win for them and the Kenyan.

Why, of course! (LOL)

This can’t help but make the snowball grow larger.

I hope the state-run media will continue to try to discredit this issue.

No. It wasn’t.

Only after the morons at Esquire had their asshats handed to them - did they add the sarc tag.
