The New York Times, once ironically known as the "Newspaper of Record", has a problem. But they aren't lonesome. The same problem threatens CBS news, and the rest of the "mainstream" media. Though Dan Rather will soon be freed from his many duties in the news manufacturing division, and thus be able to enlist the aid of O.J. Simpson in finding the real perpetrator/hoaxer, there remains to the liberal media that nagging problem. And that is "the record". In the past, engineered crises and hard hitting ambushes, once they had accomplished their intended purposes, could be safely laid to rest,...

WASHINGTON One of the authors of a new anti-John Kerry book has apologized for his comments in an Internet chat room describing Muslims and Catholics as pedophiles and Pope John Paul as senile. As he prepared to launch the book "Unfit for Command," Jerry Corsi said his postings on the Web were meant as a joke and he never intended to offend anyone. In a chat room entry last year, Corsi accused Muslims of being pedophiles, wife beaters and killers of infidels. The book's co-author is John O'Neill, who also is spokesman for the group that began airing an ad...

At 20, Author Launches an Assault on the Ivory TowerBy Justin Pope The Associated Press Published: Jun 10, 2004

(from poster: "THIS IS JUST A HYPoTHETICAL ARTICLE" warning to readers/posters. I don't want any lurkers/posters to do a "War of the Worlds" suicide number due to this post.) (excerpt from Feb. 21, 2003 L A Weekley article about the aftermath of a HYPOTHETICAL anthrax attack that kills about 38,000 LA residents): Others focus their emotions on the need to strike back, although it isn't clear at whom, since the FBI hasn't caught anyone yet. Even so, they post furious tirades on FreeRepublic.com urging the president to kill all "ragheads and camel drivers," "nuke Mecca" and turn Baghdad into "a...

Internet Performs Global Role, Supplementing TV Special Coverage of the Attacks on the World Trade Center History expands. Terribly. In 1914, two bullets fired at an automobile driving through the streets of Sarajevo killed the Archduke Franz Ferdinand and Sophia, his wife. Their deaths led to World War One. In 2001, two massive jet aircraft crashed into the World Trade Center in New York killed ... the numbers are so far unknown, but it's likely that thousands are dead. Another hijacked jet, aimed at the Pentagon, killed untold others. Yet another jet, also under the command of terrorists in league...

Since i discovered Free Republic almost 5 years ago, it has become quite apparent that FR has become one of the most fast-moving and practical sources for conservative news. Five years ago, I was an angry American (Clinton scandals). Today, I am a very informed conservative activist with constant information at my fingertips (thanks to FR)I believe that if we could each tell five conservative friends about FR in the next two years, we could educate them to the point of activism.What i would be interested to hear from my FR friends is their personal experiences about sharing FR with...

On Monday NewsMax.com detailed the story of Clinton campaign insider Patrick Halley, who revealed that "goon squads" were recruited to suppress protests at events for New York Sen. Hillary Clinton. Now, one Clinton "goon squad" victim has come forward to tell his story. The incident took place at New York City's Israeli Day parade at the height of Mrs. Clinton's 2000 campaign for the Senate, where, by all accounts, the-then first lady was roundly booed by the crowd as she stoically marched from block to block. A member of the conservative Web site FreeRepublic.com, dressed for the occasion as the...

The Gist Who Is Promoting Violence?It was interesting that in the same week that The New York Times announced it would begin publishing notices of gay unions on its wedding pages, the bestselling conservative shock-diva Ann Coulter was quoted saying this to The New York Observer: "My only regret with [Oklahoma City bomber] Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building." In the same week, too, a Times editor tragically fell to his death from the 16th floor of the Times building in an apparent suicide. Soon enough, on the conservative website FreeRepublic.com, where...

Stand-by seating is available when the doors open at 6 p.m. for the 7 p.m. live broadcast. The theater has seating for several hundred people.

(Page 118) By disrupting the constant drumbeat of liberal propaganda -- Reagan was a brute, Cuba has excellent health care, Santa's home is melting, Gore won the election, and Clinton is Elvis--the Internet had become a threat to "democracy." The first chapter of Sunstein's book [Republic.com -- a book that apparently advocated censoring the Internet] was posted on Freerepublic.com --a website that is wildly popular on the basis of the now-discredited "consumer sovereignty" principle. One Freeper responded, "I've been exposed to a massive excerpt from Republic.com, a book written by a liberal, on a conservative niche website. Without that conservative...

Evolving E-Books Let Authors Answer Critics This spring, Princeton University Press unveiled an unusual electronic book program, designed to free books not only from the space restrictions of print but from time restrictions as well. Called Princeton Digital Books Plus, the program goes beyond the simple production of electronic copies of static hardcover books. Instead, each book is designed to evolve after its publication date, shaped by online discussions among readers and authors. The first book to be vaulted into the public arena of feedback and revision is "Republic.com," by Cass Sunstein, a law professor at the University of Chicago....
