I don’t see them attached to this Washington Post piece, either. The entire mainstream media is capitulating to jihadist intimidation instead of standing up for the freedom of speech — which freedom, accordingly, is not long for this world. “Fox News has ‘no plans’ to air Charlie Hebdo cartoons,” by Erik Wemple, Washington Post, January […]
MSNBC: Falwell suing Hustler same as Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre
This appallingly risible analysis is the mainstream. If you point out that suing someone for libel is quite different from massacring someone, you’re just a racist, bigoted Islamophobe. Video thanks to Anne Crockett.
CNN policy: Charlie Hebdo Muhammad cartoons forbidden, “Piss Christ” okay
The freedom of speech is actually alive and well in the mainstream media, as long as you’re slamming Christianity in some way — look at the media adoration of Reza Aslan. But if you mock Muhammad, suddenly the mainstream media dons a hijab and goes silent. “CNN Policy: Charlie Hebdo Muhammad Cartoons Forbidden, ‘Piss Christ’ […]
Howard Dean on the Charlie Hebdo murderers: “I stopped calling these people Muslim terrorists. They’re about as Muslim as I am.”
The gunmen screamed “Allahu akbar” and declared, “We have avenged the Prophet Muhammad” as they murdered people in the offices of a publication that had mocked him. They couldn’t be Muslim terrorists! But Howard Dean says, “They have no respect for anybody else’s life, that’s not what the Koran says.” Well, let’s look at what […]
New York Times: “What We Don’t Know: The reason Charlie Hebdo was targeted”
New York Times editors are scratching their learned, judicious heads. Let’s see. The gunmen screamed “Allahu akbar” and declared, “We have avenged the Prophet Muhammad” as they murdered people in the offices of a publication that had mocked him. What on earth could have been their motivation? Right-wing extremism? A last, desperate response to institutional […]
Financial Times calls for Sharia self-censorship: “Some common sense would be useful at publications such as Charlie Hebdo”
The Financial Times piece has been edited. The Daily Beast points out that it used to say this: “If the magazine stops just short of outright insults, it is nevertheless not the most convincing champion of the principle of freedom of speech….This is not in the slightest to condone the murderers… it is merely to […]
Variety: “Charlie Hebdo carnage will likely fuel the racism and anti-Islam sentiment which has been on the rise in France”
As always, the Leftist media is not concerned about Islamic jihad except insofar as a (generally nonexistent) “backlash” affects Muslims and encourages “racism.” What race is the jihad mass murder of cartoonists again? “Gunmen Kill 12 at French Satirical Magazine Charlie Hebdo,” by Elsa Keslassy, Variety, January 7, 2015: …The Charlie Hebdo carnage will likely […]
Telegraph: “Charlie Hebdo attacks: Anti-Islam parties are now on the march across Europe”
The UK’s witless dhimmi Telegraph is having a wonderful day. After the Charlie Hebdo jihad mass murders, it ran a story with the headline “France faces rising tide of Islamophobia.” And now this one: “Charlie Hebdo attacks: Anti-Islam parties are now on the march across Europe.” You might think that in the wake of an […]
UK’s Telegraph headline on Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre story: “France faces rising tide of Islamophobia”
Indignant Britons have written to me in recent weeks, saying I am being too hard on the UK. Clearly I am not being hard enough. It has surrendered to the jihad agenda. Might as well turn out the lights and close the books on what was once a great nation. The Telegraph’s headline wins the […]
State Department wishes ‘RIP’ to living captives of jihad terrorists
This epitomizes how out of touch and frankly stupid the State Department’s Think Again, Turn Away program really is. State Department analysts continue to misdiagnose the problem of the global jihad and apply solutions that only make it worse — and since the mainstream media is just as clueless and compromised, these failed analysts are […]
