You’re not going to believe this one. Newsweek reporter Michael Hastings, while covering the presidential campaign, entertained fantasies about “taking out” Rudy Giuliani. And now he’s talking openly about it, and about his underhanded dealings with the John McCain campaign, as he pretended to be friendly and sympathetic while looking ...

The Washington Post and Newsweek have a special joint project called “On Faith” that has been running for more than a year, a special project that is thoroughly infiltrated by radical Islamists, antisemites, and Holocaust deniers, misleadingly promoted as “interfaith dialog.” Some of the propagandists published by On Faith are ...

The joint Newsweek-Washington Post venture “On Faith” has featured an all-star cast of radical Muslims and blatant antisemites like Arun Gandhi, whitewashing Islamic fundamentalism and attacking Christianity and Judaism, all in the name of “interfaith dialog.” So today it’s no surprise to find them promoting yet another Islamic supremacist, Imam ...

What’s gotten into Newsweek magazine? This article by George Weigel is way off their usual politically correct line: The War Against Jihadism. What kind of campaign is this? Six-plus years after 9/11; while the Taliban attempts an Afghanistan comeback; as Islamist terrorists cause mayhem in Algeria and occupy huge ...
Today in Newsweek, an op-ed by noted international commentator and genocidal Jew-hater, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, titled with his usual light-hearted irreverence: Costly Arrogance.

Markos “Screw Them” Moulitsas is going to be covering the 2008 campaign for Newsweek, which strikes me as perfectly appropriate: Newsweek Welcomes Kos as Political Contributor. At Daily Kos, Markos crows that “wingnut heads are exploding” over this, but last time I checked, my head was still very much intact. ...
Newsweek exposes the evil neocon sorcerers who make up Rudy Giuliani’s foreign policy team. Thank goodness we have Newsweek and their army of highly-skilled fact-checkers, keeping America safe from neocon schemes.
Newsweek comes in for plenty of well-deserved criticism around here, particularly for their egregious whitewashes of radical Islam and their blatantly leftist bias, but here’s an article they did right: The Ongoing Hunt for Osama bin Laden. It’s a little difficult to read, because it confirms all our worst fears ...
The Washington Post and Newsweek are currently pursuing a monumental campaign to whitewash radical Muslims, obfuscate the truth about jihad, and promote the viewpoints of really bad people. The latest example was on Sunday, when they published an article by Muzzamil Siddiqi, the imam of the Islamic Society of Orange ...

In their outrageous quest to legitimize radical Muslims as “moderates,” the Washington Post and Newsweek are publishing one deceptive piece after another, some of them by really bad people like the spiritual leader of Hizballah Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah, and Muslim Brotherhood stalking horse Tariq Ramadan. Today the soothing words come ...

Newsweek has become the public relations arm for radical Islam. Case in point, their deceptive and ridiculous article on the Hamas funding trial in Dallas: Trial Against U.S. Muslim Charity Begins. In their latest whitewash piece, they begin with a glowing portrait of the daughter of Ghassan Elashi (she wants ...

The Washington Post and Newsweek are pulling out all the stops in their promotion of radical Islamists as “moderates.” Today we get another round of misdirection from the Muslim Brotherhood’s slickest Islamist spokesman, Tariq Ramadan, billed as a “European intellectual”—who’s banned from entering the United States (a fact the Post ...

It’s becoming a real trend for mainstream media to present the very worst radical Islamic nutjobs as legitimate scholars, to whom we need to pay careful attention. In the latest disgusting example, here’s the spiritual leader of Hizballah, Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah, brought to you by the Washington Post and Newsweek: ...

Newsweek writer and Islamic advocate Lorraine Ali, last seen at LGF when she authored a scurrilous ad hominem attack on Ayyan Hirsi Ali, has another piece of work today in Newsweek’s online edition, doing her best to spin the Pew Research poll: Media Coverage of Muslims Bombs. According to Ms ...
It’s not the first time Newsweek has published a press release for Islamic supremacism, and it won’t be the last: Mideast: The New Muslim Brotherhood: Mullahs Gone Mild. As we’ve noted several times recently, the Muslim Brotherhood has mounted a charm offensive in the West, trying to remake their image ...
They come to America to escape this kind of Dark Ages misogyny—but even here, they aren’t safe: In Secret, Polygamy Follows Africans to NY. Notice that even though they recognize there’s a serious problem, The New York Times determinedly shies away from the M word in this article. She worked ...

Here’s a great piece by Christopher Hitchens on the media’s attacks on Ayaan Hirsi Ali—especially the scurrilous Newsweek article by a Muslim advocate that outraged us last month: Ayaan Hirsi Ali is no fundamentalist. In her book, Ayaan Hirsi Ali says the following: “I left the world of faith, of ...
An unbelievable smear job at Newsweek on Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s excellent new book Infidel: The Controversial Memoir of a Muslim Woman. But Hirsi Ali’s memoir is as much about her political agenda as it is her life, andin between tales of her youth she wedges harsh and uncompromising declarations: “True ...

Newsweek knows who to blame for the Islamic world’s [Popup] into a life of jihad. UPDATE at 1/19/07 8:45:37 pm: Previously at Newsweek:
An absolutely clueless Newsweek article mocks President Bush for being aware of the goal of the Islamic fascists: Caliwho ? Bush’s Favorite New Word: ‘Caliphate’. Oct. 12, 2006 - When President George W. Bush starts using fifty-cent words in press conferences, one has to wonder why [Yes, after all, he’s ...
The latest web edition of Newsweek has an article by “moderate Muslim” Akbar Ahmed on the cancellation of a Mozart opera out of fear of violence from the Religion of Peace™. He calls this fear “sensitivity.” In this instance, “moderate Muslim” appears to mean: the one who shows up after ...

Newsweek shows their impartiality again, by interviewing Shi’ite nutjob Muqtada al-Sadr, and treating him with the same respect they would show to, say, someone like Kofi Annan: Interview: Iraqi’s al-Sadr on the Occupation. (Hat tip: Uncle Bubba.) (Instead of “Kofi Annan,” I was going to write “someone like President Bush,” ...
