The Many Faces of NewsweekAn emailer suggests that accusing Newsweek of treason is "a bit much."
A bit much of what, though? The truth?
If anyone doubts Newsweek's anti-U.S. agenda, they should peruse the newsmagazine's foreign editions. As noted on
The Riding Sun -- a blog by an American living in Japan -- the cover of the February 2nd issue of Newsweek's Japanese edition bears the headline, "The day America died." The cover photograph shows an American flag stuffed into garbage-filled, back alley trash can.
The Riding Sun's Gaijinbiker then notes:
The equivalent international edition of Newsweek, the January 31 issue, featured a picture of Bush on the cover, with the caption "America Leads ... But is Anyone Following?"
Both of the above editions featured a cover-story article by Andrew Moravcsik, titled "Dream on, America". (This was translated into Japanese as "Yume no kuni Amerika ga kuchihateru toki", which is even harsher; it means, roughly, "America, the dream country, is rotting away".) According to Newsweek itself, the article described "the world's rejection of the American way of life."
Moravcsik's article did not run in the American edition of that same issue. The cover was also a bit different. It featured Hilary Swank, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx, with the title "Oscar Confidential"So, during wartime, Newsweek led with the Oscars in its U.S. edition while cheerfully proclaiming to the rest of the world that America is dead.
And labeling this treason is "a bit much?"
There's only one surprise about this. It must have never occurred to Newsweek's dumbass editors that the Information Superhighway Patrol -- the bloggers -- would reveal these foreign Newsweek editions to American readers. Thanks to Gaijinbiker,
Instapundit,
Lileks,
LGF and many other bloggers, Newsweek's anti-U.S. agenda is exposed.
That Newsweek is biased against the United States isn't the issue. Bias, as I've
written before, is a great thing. The issue is that Newsweek is concealing its true mission -- subverting America's war on terror -- from its legion of American readers.
At least the commies at
The Nation have the balls to be upfront with their readers -- all 17 of them -- about that magazine's treasonous mission.
