Ashley Herzog is the Ohio University student whose photos were filched by some unknown hate-monger–still unidentified, still out there–who created a fake Flickr site with Photoshopped images of me. Those images were falsely publicized last week by UNC School of Law professor Eric Muller as authentic, and then picked up and broadcast widely by the […]

Every weekday morning, after I get my kids dressed and fed and off and running for the day, I sit down in my home office to blog, write columns, manage Hot Air, and juggle duties as a Fox News contributor. I can’t wait to see what’s happening in the world, what tips readers have sent, […]

***updated: tracking the source of the bogus Flickr photos…Wonkette editors demonstrate further malice…***
***update 9/30 6:25pm…I have just heard from the student whose pictures were stolen from Webshots by the creator of the bogus Flickr site. She is Ashley Herzog of Ohio University (not Oberlin, my alma mater, as the bogus Flickr site creator misled people […]

I have blogged before about the obsessed UNC professor Eric Muller.

He and his friends at Wonkette have sunk to a new low (Guess insulting me with ping-pong ball jokes wasn’t enough). As a response to my column this week on Charlotte Church, they post a picture of a woman in a bikini that they […]

A few weeks ago, UNC law professor Eric Muller–the chief critic of my latest book whom I debated several times on the radio and engaged extensively (see below)–called on his blog readers to get my book banned –yes, banned–from the shelves at the Manzanar relocation center.
The staff at Manzanar received nearly 200 letters, weighed […]

My old debating partner, Eric Muller, is trying to get my book banned from the Manzanar bookstore, which is operated by the National Park Service. Once again drawing a scurrilous parallel between my argument and that of Holocaust deniers, Muller urges his readers to contact the National Park Service. I urge my readers to […]

Washington Post managing editor Philip Bennett tells Hugh Hewitt the People’s Daily of China misquoted him–a possibility I acknowledged in the second sentence of my initial post on this topic last week. Bennett says:
The version published in the People’s Daily includes numerous and important inaccuracies. In many places words and sentences were removed to […]

Am scheduled to do a KPCC-FM radio debate in about 5 or 10 minutes with my old friend Eric Muller on FDR’s evacuation, relocation, and internment policies. I think you can listen live here.

Today is the 60th anniversary of Iwo Jima. Blogger tributes here and here. See also Power Line, Ace, and LGF.
It’s also the 63rd anniversary of Executive Order 9066, the West Coast evacuation order signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942. We’ve seen plenty of stories and op-ed pieces leading up to the […]

The professor I had an impromptu debate with at Emory University on Tuesday continues to twist the truth. On a History News Network blog, Greg Robinson posts a bitter account of the night. Demonstrating his willingness to distort reality, he writes:
Perhaps in response to the news of my appearance, Malkin changed the topic of her […]

I’m in Atlanta, heading back home today after a fantastic and fascinating visit to Emory University. The College Republicans invited me to speak last night on the “Girls Gone Wild” culture, a subject which I first addressed last summer and continue to cover. The event, sponsored by the Young Americans for Freedom, was well-attended and […]

Law professor Eric Muller’s critiques of my book, which began reasonably enough in early August, have degenerated into irrationality.
Muller’s descent began shortly after I pointed out copious factual errors and mischaracterizations in his posts–errors that remain uncorrected and unacknowledged to this day.
A few days later, Muller signed the hysterical letter by the newly-formed “Historians’ Committee […]

The history curriculum in Bainbridge Island’s middle school dealing with the so-called Japanese-American internment has come under fire, according to this article in the Bremerton Sun. An excerpt:
A special social studies program for Sakai Intermediate School sixth-graders called “Leaving Our Island” is missing context and rises to the level of “propaganda,” some parents say.
Their complaints […]

Blogger Eric Muller, believes it’s time to start “winding the back-and-forth down.” This desire is apparently shared by his co-critic, author Greg Robinson. I can see why.
In yesterday’s post, I pointed out that Robinson had failed to correct more than a half-dozen factual errors that I called to his attention in my Aug. 6 […]

Today at 10am, I’ll be discussing my book on Philadelphia’s public radio station, WHYY. UNC law professor and blogger Eric Muller of Is That Legal? will take up the debate. More info here. Listen live here.

For those who are interested, I have uploaded a follow-up response to professors Eric Muller and Greg Robinson, two principal critics of my new book. You can read the whole thing here. Part I of my response to Muller and Robinson, posted a few weeks ago, is here.
I appreciate the extensive effort that these […]

Later today, I’ll be appearing on the Northern Alliance Radio Network at 2 pm eastern time. The interview will air live on the Net.
I’m scheduled to debate law professor/blogger Eric Muller twice next week: on Wednesday August 25th at 10 am eastern on WHYY “Radio Times” with Marty Moss-Coane and on Thursday […]

A lot of buzz about the book this week.
Tom Ikeda and Scott Oki attack it in a Seattle P-I op-ed. Like Greg Robinson, they say none of the information in my book is new, which is untrue. They cite the conclusions of the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians without addressing any […]

New column’s up.
All (or almost all) of the intervenors in Arthur Jacobs’ case were Japanese-American leaders or groups. Jacobs comments, “It is interesting to note that those who we are told fought so hard for justice for members of their ethnicity, fought even harder against a person who was not a member of their ethnicity.” […]

This afternoon, during the 5 o’clock hour (eastern time), I’ll be discussing you-know-what on Sean Hannity’s radio show. Tonight, it’ll be a double-header with appearances on both Hannity & Colmes and Scarborough Country. I’ll wrap up the day with an appearance on Alan Colmes’ radio show.

Update: Ken […]

It was wet and dreary outside in a typically Pacific Northwest way, but the big crowd at Cedar Park Church in Bothell last night provided a remarkably warm welcome. Thanks to all who came out. The showing from the other side was rather anemic, and contrary to the biased Seattle Times report (and yes, that […]

University of North Carolina law professor Eric Muller has been guest-blogging about my new book this week over at The Volokh Conspiracy. He enlisted the aid of his friend and author Greg Robinson in his endeavor. I welcome the debate from the Eric-Greg tag team and others who have actually read the book and are […]

Hey, kids. Been up all night (nothing unusual there) at the hospital with my 4-year-old daughter, who hasn’t been able to hold anything down for the past 24 hours (water, Coke, jello, Cheezits, pedialyte popsicles…all of which ended up on the family room couch). Seems there’s a nasty stomach bug going around. After some IV […]

The word is out about my new book, In Defense of Internment: The Case for “Racial Profiling” in World War II and the War on Terror. I’ve been keeping it under wraps over the past year as I quietly toiled away in the wee hours of the morning, but since Instapundit kindly mentioned receiving the […]
