3. I guess they will publish either all of it or major excerpts, a piece at a
time.

2. Great CSpan over the weekend of O'Neil debating Kerry way back in 1971
O'Neil has held a grudge against Kerry for over 30 years!

4. Yes - they will supposedly be excerpting it over the next few days

Rev. Moon and the boys once again bring "journalism" to new lows.

If/when they do it, they should get a LOT of letters (hint, hint) blasting them for their "fair and balanced" coverage.

9. The Washington Times
is a right wing rag, just like the NY Post. It should not be confused with the Washington Post. I am not surprised the Rev. Moon owned paper is doing this as they are not a serious or objective newspaper.

11. Of course it's a right wing rag
Edited on Wed Aug-18-04 08:45 AM by DancingBear
But, to those folks waiting in doctors offices and dentists offices throughout the D.C. metro area, it LOOKS like a real newspaper. Hell, my eye doctor always has a copy of it amongst his waiting room reading material, along with The Washington Post.

As crazy as it sounds, a lot of people read it for its sports section, which beats The Post twelve ways from Sunday.

You would be amazed at how many people here read this thing, and take it as their news source.

10. but but but...
I thought the Swiftless Wonders were all non-partisan, Clinton
voting, patriotic 'merkins!

Why would they allow THE most right wing shitbag newspaper
in the country to publish their work?

Maybe they should be asked that at every press conference.
Oh wait, the only 'press' they do is also far right wing. Hmmm,
I'm gonna hafta rethink their 'non-partisan' posturing!

Too sarcastic? :evilgrin:

12. Well, they've certainly got enough space to do it
Edited on Wed Aug-18-04 09:12 AM by hatrack
You know, what with all the advertisements that don't crowd their pages.

Besides, the book isn't exactly flying off the shelves anyway. Look for little daggers in the NYT Bestsellers list this Sunday!

15. I guess this means
the Moonie paper won't be carrying O'Reilly's column on the Swift Boat Liars. LOL

17. Is This A New Concept Here???
I thought newspapers printed excerpts BEFORE the book hits the stores, not AFTER. Ooops...forgot, this is a parallel universe in retrograde disintigration here.
