Holiday Bush Derangement Syndrome: Crisis in Gaza All White House’s
July 5th, 2007 10:46 AM
American foolish enough to read anything by the clearly anti-Bush McClatchy news service were treated to an astoundingly disgraceful Independence Day gift Wednesday with an article that blamed all the problems in Gaza on – wait for it – the White House (h/t Dan Gainor).In this smear piece published on the occasion of our nation’s 231st birthday, the hits started right in the glorious headline: “…
Al Qaeda Atrocity Follow-up: Old Media Member 'Explains' Non-Coverage
July 4th, 2007 10:07 PM
Michael Yon doesn't have an answer (HT to NewsBuster reader "acumen") as to why Old Media won't cover the Al Qaeda massacre of a small village near Baqubah, Iraq that he reported earlier this week (related NewsBusters posts are here and here):
Coordinates to the area of the gravesites are MC 679 381.
In my dispatch, I reported that six people were killed, but mentioned that Iraqi soldiers were…
Hamas Mouse Murdered On-Air by 'Jew
June 29th, 2007 3:23 PM
Remember the Palestinian children's show starring the Mickey Mouse ripoff, "Farfur?" Yeah, the one preaching global Islamic supremacy and shooting Jewish people with an AK-47. The show got canceled, but not for the right reasons and far, far from the right way.In the latest Hamas outrage, the show, "Tomorrow's Pioneers," featured Farfur being beaten to death by an actor playing the role of an…
CNN Shills For Hamas: ‘This is Law and Order in the New Gaza
June 22nd, 2007 2:23 PM
Last week, the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas took over Gaza in what was described by many as a bloodbath.Just days later, CNN’s Ben Wedeman filed a report from the region in which he glowingly praised these terrorists’ efforts to bring “law and order in the new Gaza.”In a video segment that was aired at various times Thursday, Wedeman exclusively interviewed Gaza residents who seemed thrilled…
Ohio's Governor Speaks at CAIR Banquet; Ohio’s Press Snoozes
June 19th, 2007 10:11 AM
Ohio's press must have been forced into rationing newsprint and bandwidth during the past couple of days.
I can't otherwise explain how the Toledo Blade, Cleveland Plain Dealer, Cincinnati Enquirer, Dayton Daily News (news; blogs), and especially the Columbus Dispatch, have thus far carried no coverage of this Ted Strickland appearance on Sunday:

PLO Official Says Al-Jazeera Is an Accomplice to Crimes Committed by H
June 17th, 2007 5:41 PM
Here’s something you don’t see every day: an Arab leader complaining about Al-Jazeera being biased.Yet, that's what happened Sunday according to Agence France-Presse (emphasis added throughout, h/t Charles at LGF):A senior Palestinian official on Sunday accused pan-Arab Al-Jazeera television of favouring Hamas in its coverage of the battles between the Islamists and rival Fatah.Al-Jazeera…
Media Ignore Theft of Arafat’s Nobel Peace Prize, Downplay Palestini
June 17th, 2007 1:04 PM
On Saturday, NewsBusters asked two important questions: “Will Media Report Palestinians Fleeing Gaza For Israel,” and will they address the theft of Yasser Arafat’s Nobel Peace Prize by Hamas looters? At this point, the answer to the latter is a resounding “No.” The answer to the former is “Not much.”To be more specific, extensive searches of Google News and LexisNexis have identified that no…
Hamas Looters in Gaza Steal Yasser Arafat’s Nobel Peace Prize
June 16th, 2007 10:30 PM
Better stow all that needs to be stowed, sports fans, for this is guaranteed to evoke uncontrollable fits of laughter.Looting Hamas militiamen apparently broke into former Palestinian Liberation Organization leader Yasser Arafat’s home and stole his – wait for it! Wait for it! – Nobel Peace Prize.Honestly, there’s no way you can make this stuff up.The Jerusalem Post reported the excruciatingly…
CNN’s Jack Cafferty Blames President Bush For Hamas Takeover of Gaza
June 16th, 2007 5:11 PM
On Thursday, Instapundit’s Glenn Reynolds was curious how quickly Israel would be blamed for Hamas’ activities in Gaza, with the answer expeditiously coming from the Boston Globe.Well, CNN’s Jack Cafferty one-upped the Globe Friday by actually blaming Hamas' takeover of Gaza on – wait for it! – President George W. Bush.Color me unsurprised.In his normal spot on CNN’s “The Situation Room,”…
Will Media Report Palestinians Fleeing Gaza For Israel
June 16th, 2007 2:30 PM
Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs pointed out an interesting situation developing in war-stricken Gaza that will likely put America’s anti-Israel press in a peculiar position (emphasis added):According to the international left and the paleo-right, Israel is a fascist apartheid state, a brutal occupier, universally despised by the oppressed Palestinian people.So where do the oppressed…
