NPR EXEC AND JOURNALIST ALLEGE JEWISH CONTROL
By Harmony Daws
10 Mar 10
National Public Radio executive Ron Schiller nodded in agreement
when an apparently Muslim speaker said, “ Jews do kind of
control the media or, I mean, certainly the Zionists and the people
who have the interests in swaying media coverage toward a favorable
direction of Israel.” (This would be what we call The
Israel Lobby,
powerful both in Washington and in the halls of media, to blame
for incredibly
biased reporting.)
Another NPR exec said “that’s good” when NPR was
praised as “National Palestine Radio.” Schiller then
said Zionist
influence doesn't exist at NPR, but "it's there
in those who own newspapers obviously." Obviously
he is right. This is a proven fact, easily available to anyone who
does a little research. This Wikipedia list is only partial, but
it gives a brief, unbiased glimpse into Jewish media influence, click
here for list .
Schiller had to know he was breaking cardinal rules. Proud Jewish
Americans do boast about the Jewish origins of Hollywood and big media.
(See Joel Stein’s article for an example, latimes.com How
Jewish is Hollywood?)
But it is not permitted to speak negatively about the fact of Jewish
majority ownership of American media, and Gentiles are not allowed
to mention it. If they do, they are called “anti-Semitic.”
The “apparent Muslims” speaking to Schiller were undercover,
pretending to be part of the Muslim Brotherhood for a muckraking job
by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas. They have now exposed
the “anti-Semitism” of these NPR executives.
The Zionist Organization of America—the oldest Israel advocacy
group in America—is calling for American Jews to demand the government
cut
federal funding of NPR. ZOA head Morton Klein called for fellow
Jews to stop giving money to NPR.
Yesterday ADL broke its silence and demanded
an apology from the departing
NPR exec. Immediately after the controversy, NPR head Vivian
Schiller (no relation to Ron) resigned
under pressure to do so.
But falling on her sword may not have been enough. Colorado Republican
Doug Lamborn is heading “full speed ahead” to follow the
ZOA’s advice and push
for defunding of NPR.
I’m all for defunding the $400 million yearly that NPR should
never have gotten from taxpayers, especially since Ron Schiller also
said scathing things about red-state Americans and NPR has consistently
shown its bias for the left. But Zionist loyalties are not a good motivation.
This is yet another example of publicly flogging anyone who falls off
the high wire of publicly acceptable speech about Jews and Israel.
Schiller isn’t alone in daring to break the rules.
Wayne Madsen is a freelance DC-based investigative journalist (www.waynemadsenreport.com).
He specializes in intelligence and international affairs and has written
for The Village Voice, Counterpunch, The Progressive and American
Conservative and has authored five books. To further
decorate his resume, Madsen has been criticized by CBS, Salon and Atlantic
Monthly as a conspiracy theorist. Considering the one-sided, bigoted
view of mainstream media, this should be considered a compliment.
Right-of-center news sites now have published an
exclusive interview with Madsen by Kourosh Ziabari of Foreign
Policy Journal.
(It was published in the lesser known of the two Foreign Policy Journals, www.foreignpolicyjournal.com .)
After many statements about international affairs, Madsen said bluntly:
The Israeli Lobby owns the Congress, media,
Hollywood, Wall Street, both political parties, and the White House.
This kind of talk will get people fired by this lobby, as we have
seen recently with White House correspondent Helen Thomas and CNN
anchor Rick Sanchez. However, many Americans are growing tired
of the arrogance of the Israel Lobby and their bigoted attitudes
toward anyone who challenges their influence-peddling and their
ridiculous insistence that Israel must be supported because of
some ancient fairy tales involving some tribes who wandered the
deserts of the Middle East and saw and heard non-existent things
because of sun stroke, drinking bad water, and smoking local hallucinogenic
plants.
Madsen clearly has arrogant disdain for religion or Christianity.
But that doesn’t erase the validity of his remarks. Evangelical
Christians by and large do support Israel because of misinterpreting
Jehovah’s promise of the Holy Land to Jews—not because
of a clear-eyed view of Israel’s role in foreign affairs or the
Middle East. And the journalist is correct: It has been amply proven
that Congress, media, Hollywood, Wall Street and the political right
and left all bow to the liberal Jewish interpretation of reality. Just
look at the last few weeks.
Fashion designer John
Galliano is standing trial and facing a potential
six months in prison—after already being fired from his prestigious
position with Dior—for drunken statements about Jews. If he had
made boozy, over-medicated statements about Communists, white people
or Christians, the story wouldn’t even have made headlines. Galliano’s
insults included “filthy whore” and “f---ing Asian
bastard,” but slamming prostitutes or Asians won’t send
you to jail. Offending Jews can. Rather bravely, Jewish lawyer Stephane
Zerbib is defending Galliano, despite numerous threatening messages
from his outraged co-religionists.
The Jewish Telegraph Agency offers this concise summary of
the Galliano and Charlie Sheen events.
JTA
notes that both incidents “didn’t quite follow the
script” of a public figure stepping out of line about the Jews,
being condemned by ADL, apologizing and being absolved. Galliano got
in even hotter water, getting fired and facing trial. But Sheen demanded
an apology from ADL and then claimed he’s Jewish himself. A lawyer
wrote to Sheen’s counsel on behalf of ADL, refusing
to retract Foxman’s statements.
At this point, Sheen has gone far off the rails—actually waving
a machete from the rooftop of his apartment. It can be argued that
the League has come out in a bad light, stooping to the paranoia of
criticizing a man who is clearly chemically deranged and not winning
anyone’s respect.
If speaking the truth (Schiller, Madsen) or drunken lunatic insults
(Galliano, Sheen) are the height of current “anti-Semitism” in
America, then does ADL’s Foxman really earn his $500,000+ salary?
