Chapter 4 the Right-Wing Media Enablers of Anti-Islam Propaganda
Chapter 4 The right-wing media enablers of anti-Islam propaganda Spreading anti-Muslim hate in America depends on a well-developed right-wing media echo chamber to amplify a few marginal voices. The think tank misinforma- tion experts and grassroots and religious-right organizations profiled in this report boast a symbiotic relationship with a loosely aligned, ideologically-akin group of right-wing blogs, magazines, radio stations, newspapers, and television news shows to spread their anti-Islam messages and myths. The media outlets, in turn, give members of this network the exposure needed to amplify their message, reach larger audiences, drive fundraising numbers, and grow their membership base. Some well-established conservative media outlets are a key part of this echo cham- ber, mixing coverage of alarmist threats posed by the mere existence of Muslims in America with other news stories. Chief among the media partners are the Fox News empire,1 the influential conservative magazine National Review and its website,2 a host of right-wing radio hosts, The Washington Times newspaper and website,3 and the Christian Broadcasting Network and website.4 They tout Frank Gaffney, David Yerushalmi, Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Steven Emerson, and others as experts, and invite supposedly moderate Muslim and Arabs to endorse bigoted views. In so doing, these media organizations amplify harm- ful, anti-Muslim views to wide audiences. (See box on page 86) In this chapter we profile some of the right-wing media enablers, beginning with the websites, then hate radio, then the television outlets. The websites A network of right-wing websites and blogs are frequently the primary movers of anti-Muslim messages and myths. -

STATEMENT for the RECORD Assistant United States Attorney Aaron S
STATEMENT FOR THE RECORD Assistant United States Attorney Aaron S. J. Zelinsky House Judiciary Committee June 24, 2020 Good afternoon, Chairman Nadler, ranking Member Jordan, and Members of the Committee. In response to your subpoena, I am prepared to testify before you today about the sentencing in UnitedStates v.Roger Stone. Since 2014, I have been privileged to serve as one of over 5,000 Assistant UnitedStates Attorneys.We arenon-partisancareer prosecutorsworkinginoffices throughoutthecountry.Our job is to see that justiceis done,in every case,without fear or favor.Withoutparty or politics. I remain committed to these principles, as I am likewise committed to complying with your subpoena to the best of my ability. It is unusual for a prosecutor to testify about a criminal case, and given my role as a prosecutor, there are reasons why my testimony will necessarily be limited. The Department of Justice has indicated it may assert certain privileges related to investigative information and decisions, ongoing matters within the Department, and deliberations within the Department. I intend to respect the invocation of these privileges in appropriate circumstances, but also recognize that, for example, the deliberative process privilege does not apply when testimony sheds light on government misconduct, or when the Government has disclosed deliberative information selectively and misleadingly. The Department has cleared my submission of this written statement. The first thing every AUSA learns is that we have an ethical and legal obligationto treat every defendantequally and fairly.No one is entitledto moreor less because of who they are,who they know,or what they believe.In the United States of America,we do not prosecutepeoplebecauseof their politics. -

In an Academic Voice: Antisemitism and Academy Bias Kenneth Lasson* Current events and the recent literature strongly suggest that antisemitism and anti-Zionism are often conflated and can no longer be viewed as distinct phenomena. The following paper provides an overview of con- temporary media and scholarship concerning antisemitic/anti-Zionist events and rhetoric on college campuses. This analysis leads to the con- clusion that those who are naive about campus antisemitism should exer- cise greater vigilance and be more aggressive in confronting the problem. Key Words: Antisemitism, Higher Education, Israel, American Jews In America, Jews feel very comfortable, but there are islands of anti- Semitism: the American college campus. —Natan Sharansky1 While universities like to nurture the perception that they are protec- tors of reasoned discourse, and indeed often perceive themselves as sacro- sanct places of culture in a chaotic world, the modern campus is, of course, not quite so wonderful. -

1:19-CR-00018-ABJ UNITED STATES of AMERICA, V. ROGER
Case 1:19-cr-00018-ABJ Document 141 Filed 06/27/19 Page 1 of 11 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA Case No.: 1:19-CR-00018-ABJ UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, v. ROGER J. STONE, JR., Defendant. ______________________________/ RESPONSE TO MINUTE ORDER ALLOWING RESPONSE TO GOVERNMENT’S MOTION FOR AN ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE AND FOR A HEARING (DKT. 136) Justice Breyer, concurring in part and dissenting in part in Iancu v. Brunetti, -- S.Ct. ---, 2019 WL 2570622 (June 24, 2019), wrote: “I would appeal more often and more directly to the values the First Amendment seeks to protect. As I have previously written, I would ask whether the regulation at issue ‘works speech-related harm that is out of proportion to its justifications.’ United States v. Alvarez, 567 U.S. 709, 730 (2012).” See, Opinion of Breyer, J., at *8. In Alvarez, Justice Breyer’s concurrence in the decision relating to the Stolen Valor Act concluded that “the statute as presently drafted works disproportionate constitutional harm.” Alvarez, 567, U.S. at 739 (Breyer, J. concurring). The government’s June 20, 2019 Motion For An Order To Show Cause And For A Hearing (Dkt. 136), is a disproportionate response to Roger Stone’s exercise of his First Amendment rights within the confines of this Court’s Order. The government, presenting several Instagram posts, writes: These posts are not the first statements that appear to have run afoul of the Court’s order. The government is bringing this matter to the Court’s attention now because Stone’s most recent posts 1 Case 1:19-cr-00018-ABJ Document 141 Filed 06/27/19 Page 2 of 11 represent a direct attempt to appeal to major media outlets to publish information that is not relevant to, but may prejudice, this case. -

Note the inclusion of documentary evidence dating back to 1994 in correspondence with James M. Rockefeller and Dr. Glenn Olds. • E-mail from me to Governor Jeb Bush and President G.W. Bush confirming a March 20, 2005 death threat directed at Mr. Rockefeller in Miami. Based on the repetitive behavior patterns chronicled in the course of two^ye_ars of full- time_research, I am ccmfid_ent we can assist Mr, A^nanjn identifyin^g those who staged hjs_sonjo catalzye an incident .at this particular _time. Research uncovered numerous situations where pro-Israeli operatives have "taken position on" children and siblings of prominent or well-to-do people, often at a very young age. The targeting of Mr. Rockefeller (age 53) dates back at least to age six and perhaps earlier. Please ensure that Mr. Annan schedules time ASAP for a confidential discussion with Mr. Rockefeller and I. Fast-emerging fact patterns suggest that the Israelis are regrouping for yet another initiative as part of their commitment to wage way by way of deception, a key reason they first need to discredit the U.N.
