On 31 October 2005, The Guardian published an interview with Noam Chomsky, prophet of coffee- table anti-imperialism and verbal conjuror extraordinaire, carried out by the journalist Emma Brockes, which was highly embarrassing to him. The interview exposed him as having revisionist views in relation to the Srebrenica massacre, which he described as ‘probably overstated’ and which he has minimised at various times and in various ways.

  • Reliability of Wikipedia 1 Reliability of Wikipedia
    Reliability of Wikipedia 1 Reliability of Wikipedia The reliability of Wikipedia (primarily of the English language version), compared to other encyclopedias and more specialized sources, is assessed in many ways, including statistically, through comparative review, analysis of the historical patterns, and strengths and weaknesses inherent in the editing process unique to Wikipedia. [1] Because Wikipedia is open to anonymous and collaborative editing, assessments of its Vandalism of a Wikipedia article reliability usually include examinations of how quickly false or misleading information is removed. An early study conducted by IBM researchers in 2003—two years following Wikipedia's establishment—found that "vandalism is usually repaired extremely quickly — so quickly that most users will never see its effects"[2] and concluded that Wikipedia had "surprisingly effective self-healing capabilities".[3] A 2007 peer-reviewed study stated that "42% of damage is repaired almost immediately... Nonetheless, there are still hundreds of millions of damaged views."[4] Several studies have been done to assess the reliability of Wikipedia. A notable early study in the journal Nature suggested that in 2005, Wikipedia scientific articles came close to the level of accuracy in Encyclopædia Britannica and had a similar rate of "serious errors".[5] This study was disputed by Encyclopædia Britannica.[6] By 2010 reviewers in medical and scientific fields such as toxicology, cancer research and drug information reviewing Wikipedia against professional and peer-reviewed sources found that Wikipedia's depth and coverage were of a very high standard, often comparable in coverage to physician databases and considerably better than well known reputable national media outlets.

INTRODUCTION On Wednesday, January 7, 2015, armed gunmen entered the offices of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and killed employees and editors of the magazine in probable retaliation for the publication of satirical cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.2 The attack on Charlie Hebdo has contributed to the debate over whether publication of speech that is likely to provoke violent reactions from religious extremists should be permissible.3 Some have argued that such speech should be prohibited in order to prevent responsive violence and terrorism.4 Recently, a school of journalism dean argued in USA Today that the publication of cartoons that insult the Prophet Muhammad 1 Daniel Ortner, J.D.

Wikipedia has been criticized for the uneven handling, acceptance, and retention of articles about controversial subjects. The principal concerns of the critics are the factual reliability of the content; the readability of the prose; and a clear article layout; the existence of systemic bias; of gender bias; and of racial bias among the editorial community that is Wikipedia. Further concerns are that the organization allows the participation of anonymous editors (leading to editorial vandalism); the existence of social stratification (allowing cliques); and over-complicated rules (allowing editorial quarrels), which conditions permit the misuse of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is described as unreliable at times.

  • Playing the Nazi Card Cover A4 Q7:Layout 1
    Understanding and Addressing The ‘Nazi card’ Intervening Against Antisemitic Discourse Paul Iganski and Abe Sweiry STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The European Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism (EISCA) was established in 2007 as an independent think-tank to examine the growth and development of antisemitism in the world today and to explore new strategies for countering this age- old hatred in all its forms. EISCA is founded on the principle that the key to addressing antisemitism in the 21st century comes from a knowledge of its origins, a grasp of its history and a recognition of its changing shape and centrality when analysing racial hatred and contemporary prejudice. In addition to carrying out original research, EISCA provides a network to the most comprehensive scholarship in the field and a blog (www.eisca.eu) devoted to monitoring and examining the discourse of antisemitism in the written, visual and electronic media.

  • Wikipédia, Outil De Calomnie Et De Mensonge Pour Ses Parties
    Pour simplifier l’accès aux savoirs SCIENTIFIQUES ET HISTORIQUE, Wikipédia est un outil pédagogique souvent très utile, évidemment ; mais dans les domaines POLITIQUES ET ÉCONOMIQUES, où les voleurs de pouvoir (et les voleurs tout court, comme les industriels et les banquiers) ont beaucoup à gagner ou à perdre — et où il y a donc de puissantes raisons pour mentir —, Wikipédia est un outil de manipulation et de mensonge, exactement comme les autres médias achetés par les riches pour désinformer les citoyens, en discréditant fallacieusement les opposants et en flattant pernicieusement les dominants. Pour preuve, par exemple, l’article passionnant ci-dessous, de Craig Murray. C’est ainsi que ma propre page Wikipédia est progressivement devenue un outil de calomnie malveillante chimiquement pure — avec interdiction de m’y défendre moi-même… Étienne. Est-ce que le fait d’être libre n’offre pas forcément l’objet libre aux plus riches (le privant rapidement de réelle liberté) ? L’Affaire Philip Cross par Craig Murray [Trad.] 23/05/201826/05/2018 FLAVIEN REHAUT Note Soverain : Cet article de Craig Murray met en évidence les liens entre Wikipédia, généralement réputée pour être une encyclopédie libre et participative (et donc une référence dans le domaine de l’information), et la manière dont elle est utilisée à des fins (géo)politiques avec la complicité supposée de son fondateur et de certains rédacteurs. Cet article traite de l’affaire « Philip Cross », un utilisateur de Wikipédia qui a un grand nombre de révisions à son actif, toutes en faveur des médias néo-conservateurs britanniques et en défaveur des médias indépendants et alternatifs.
