Big Lizards: Media Matters In the Meme Streets of Baghdad - iii

By Dafydd ab Hugh  •  January 9, 2007 12:48 AM

Continued yet again from the previous lizard post…
This is the last part of the triptych; you are now free to move about the cabin.

This post is by the lizards (mostly Sachi), not by our dearest Michelle; third time’s the charm: I finally understood, after MM switched to a real cell phone instead of two [...]

Big Lizards: Media Matters In the Meme Streets of Baghdad - 1

By Dafydd ab Hugh  •  January 8, 2007 07:55 AM

This post is by the lizards (mostly Sachi), not by our dearest Michelle; the host is on holiday somewhere — I think she said Akron, but the connection was bad.
~^~
The Iraq war — indeed, the larger GWOJ (global war against jihadism) — is as much a propaganda war, a war of ideas and “memes,” as [...]

Going to Iraq

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 3, 2007 11:00 AM

Paging Kathleen Carroll
My blogging has been lighter than usual the past few weeks due to family time, Fox News duties, holiday chaos, holiday illness–and, yes, planning for a trip to Iraq. As you know, ex-CNN newsman Eason Jordan extended an invitation to me three weeks ago to go to Iraq to investigate the Associated Press/”Jamil [...]

The AP (non-)responds and
another search comes up empty

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 21, 2006 04:40 PM

Yesterday, I contacted the AP about the “Jamil Hussein”/Jamil Ghdaab Gulaim/Ghulaim findings and asked these simple questions:
Ref. http://michellemalkin.com/archives/006579.htm
1. Is Jamil Ghdaab Gulaim the real name of your oft-cited source, “Captain Jamil Hussein” aka ” Jamil Gholaiem Hussein?”
2. If not, where is “Captain Jamil Hussein” currently working? If he is a Baghdad police officer, as AP [...]

Tracing “Jamil Hussein’s” footsteps
and ignoring anti-blog hatred

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 20, 2006 03:17 PM

After receiving initial reports from a Civilian Police Advisory Training Team (CPATT) source two days ago and investigating further, here’s what I can tell you:
According to two CPATT officials–one in the U.S, one in Iraq–there is no one named “Jamil Hussein” working now or ever at either at the Yarmouk or al Khadra police stations. [...]

What’s so funny about going to Iraq?

Eason Jordan has further comment on his invitation and my acceptance:
Some of you have asked what’s up with IraqSlogger’s invitation to send Michelle Malkin to Iraq. It was [...]

Looking for Jamil Hussein:
Accepting Eason Jordan’s invitation

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 14, 2006 07:01 AM

My new travel partner?
Eason Jordan reports on his new website, Iraqslogger, that his team is in Baghdad looking for Jamil Hussein. They have not found him yet–which is newsworthy in itself–and get this: He has offered to pay for me to join the search in Iraq and accompany me:
Who is Jamil Hussein? Michelle Malkin is [...]

Eason Jordan is back

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 13, 2006 05:29 PM

Well, this should be interesting. I’m sure bloggers will be checking in to see what defamatory statements and rumors former CNN head Eason Jordan will be posting on his new website, Iraqslogger:
For the past four years there has been no shortage of news and views on Iraq and the long-running war there. What’s been missing: [...]

Ward Churchill cheered;
brands Bob Kerrey a “serial killer”

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 12, 2006 11:06 AM

Fight the power Source: NYSun
The New School gave the nation’s preeminent moonbat academic a rousing reception. He returned the favor by trashing the college’s president, former Senator and Vietnam War veteran Bob Kerrey as a “mass murder and serial killer.” Via the NYSun:
An ethnic studies professor from the University of Colorado, Ward Churchill, received a [...]

Ted Turner-itis: allergic to patriotism

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 11, 2006 09:12 AM

My column on North Korea’s favorite media mogul and Fox Derangement Syndrome. A snippet:
CNN founder Ted Turner opened his mouth this week at the National Press Club, and promptly demonstrated why America needs Fox News Channel now more than ever.
Three years after the invasion of Iraq, Turner is still pouting about public displays of [...]

AP runs to the Washington Post

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 25, 2006 03:14 PM

Tom Curley: Head of the A(wt)P
What do you do when you are a global news organization under fire for suppressing five-month-old news of the capture of one of your employees by American troops in a Ramadi apartment with an alleged al Qaeda leader and a weapons cache?
You run to a sympathetic news organization to help [...]

THE WARD CHURCHILL REPORT

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 16, 2006 02:04 PM

It’s out today. Read it here (PDF file).
Pirate Ballerina, the blog that was central to pushing the story forward, has analysis and points to the bottom line of the report:
While we are unanimous in finding that Professor Churchill’s research misconduct is serious and that we should express the degree of that seriousness through a recommendation [...]

DAVOS: RECAPPING THE GLOBAL BLOVIATE-O-FEST (W/ VIDEO)

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 29, 2006 02:04 PM

The World Economic Forum in Davos, which attracts the world’s wealthiest and windiest bloviators, wrapped up this weekend. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt turned up, along with Michael Douglas, Peter Gabriel, retired tennis player Monica Seles, and other We Are The World Hollywood celebrity-types.

2005 IN REVIEW: THE WAR ON BLOGS

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 31, 2005 06:56 PM

To the dismay of the MSM, the blogosphere didn’t go away in 2005. Here are some of the more memorable moments in the clash of the bloggers vs. MSM:
10. Commentator Bill Press’s condemnation of bloggers as people “with no credentials, no sources, no rules, no editors and no accountability.” Press’s idea of good [...]

THE MEDIA AND THE UNHINGED MARINE

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 9, 2005 08:52 AM

My latest column follows up on the lies of Jimmy Massey and his media enablers.
Doug Struck, the Washington Post reporter who covered Massey’s bogus testimony at Army deserter Jeremy Hinzman’s Canadian asylum hearing last year, has not responded to my e-mail inquiring about any follow-up.
USA Today reporter Rick Hampson, who wrote this March 2005 feature, [...]

WARD CHURCHILL AND ME

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 20, 2005 09:45 AM

Counterpunch, a widely-read left-wing political newsletter edited by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair, published a rambling interview the other day with America’s nuttiest professor, Ward Churchill.
It seems I’ve gotten under the blithering professor’s skin. When the interview first appeared, Churchill was quoted accusing me of “blatant plagiarism” (screenshot via Shock and Blog) and lifting [...]

THE SEDITIOUS WARD CHURCHILL, PT II

By Michelle Malkin  •  June 30, 2005 10:33 AM

The nuttiest professor’s fragging comments, blogged here three days ago with a big hat tip to the diligent folks at PirateBallerina, are now on video at Trey Jackson’s.
The Denver Post (which properly credits PB; good for them) reports that Churchill is, naturally, defending his latest smear.
Controversial University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill says he does [...]

THE SEDITIOUS WARD CHURCHILL

By Michelle Malkin  •  June 27, 2005 12:10 PM

He just doesn’t shut up. Fortunately, the vigilant bloggers at Pirate Ballerina continue to track the nutty professor’s bloviations. At a forum on “conscientious objection and resistance to military recruiters” in Portland on Friday, Churchill seemed to suggest support for fragging–troops murdering their own on the battlefield–as an effective anti-war tactic.
PB has transcript excerpts and [...]

A reckless charge aganist the military… in an unexpected place

By Michelle Malkin  •  June 7, 2005 12:54 PM

***See update below for FNC correction***
CNN’s Eason Jordan. Newsweek. Linda Foley. One of this blog’s big themes has been challenging reckless anti-military bias by the MSM, wherever it rears its ugly head. Last night, disappointingly, that place was Fox News Channel (for which I serve as a contributor).
Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit first tipped me [...]

FRIDAY ROUND-UP: PEPSI, THE NEW EASON, AND THE MORANS

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 20, 2005 07:02 AM

Sizzling hot stories breaking out of the blogosphere:
- Pepsi falls flat. My friends at Power Line have done an absolutely fabulous job reporting on the insipid, America-bashing commencement address of Pepsi exec Indra Nooyi. See here, here, here, here, and here. Hugh Hewitt has some sage advice for the company, whose damage control efforts are [...]

WHAT ISIKOFF SHOULD DO

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 17, 2005 11:19 AM

Drudge has the siren spinning over Newsweek’s refusal to accept reporter Michael Isikoff’s resignation. The magazine is making all macho-like in standing up to supposed White House bullying:
“Mike was told he would not be sacrificed, we are standing behind him 100%,” a top magazine source told the DRUDGE REPORT. “We do not, I repeat, do [...]

WARD CHURCHILL AND MEChA: PERFECT TOGETHER

WARD CHURCHILL: BULLYING CLAIM

By Michelle Malkin  •  April 24, 2005 09:53 AM

The Denver Post has the latest Ward Churchill installment:
A previously unreported allegation of intimidation by University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill surfaced during a committee’s initial review of his work, but, like other threat complaints, it was not addressed by administrators.
The complaint was included in more than 150 pages of documents released Thursday that stemmed [...]

WASHINGTON POST’S MANAGING EDITOR SPEAKS HIS MIND

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 11, 2005 06:41 AM

The Washington Post’s managing editor, Philip Bennett, gave a fascinating interview to People’s Daily Online, the official mouthpiece of the Communist Chinese regime.
Assuming Bennett’s remarks were correctly transcribed (and there is a significant possibility that they were not), it seems fair to say he has bad feelings about the Bush Administration, which he says [...]

BAD PROSPECT

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 8, 2005 06:44 AM

Garance Franke-Ruta has a ridiculous article in the American Prospect arguing a la Dan Rather that the bloggers who brought down Eason Jordan and exposed RatherGate are partisan Republican activists disguising themselves as independent citizen bloggers.
Don’t waste your time reading the whole thing. This one paragraph is all you need to read to understand where [...]

CNN: LOST IN TRANSLATION?

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 7, 2005 02:01 PM

CNN reports:
In an article published Sunday in her communist newspaper, Il Manifesto, Giuliana Sgrena wrote, “Our car was driving slowly,” and “the Americans fired without motive.”
[Update 2:17pm...Quote has been removed, but you can still see it here.]
Ok, now click on the link to CNN’s translation of Sgrena’s article. Notice anything strange? According to CNN’s [...]

FOR YOUR READING PLEASURE…

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 7, 2005 10:07 AM

I was recently interviewed by John Hawkins of Right Wing News. He asked me for my thoughts on a wide range of topics, including immigration, internment, death threats, Chris Matthews, Wonkette, Andrew Sullivan, Eason Jordan, and the MSM’s lack of interest in Easongate. Click here to read it.

U.S. TROOPS MISTAKENLY SHOOT GIULIANA SGRENA

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 4, 2005 04:09 PM

Italian hostage Giuliana Sgrena has been released, but according to Reuters, “U.S. forces mistakenly opened fire on the convoy taking her to safety, wounding her and killing an Italian secret service agent.” The Jawa Report is all over the story.
Update: Reader Greg points out that the Reuters story left out an important part of [...]
