NYT outs Sandusky rape victim: americanthinker.com .... Newhouse says that a Times' piece (" For a Reported Penn State Victim, a Search for Trust") written by Nare Schweber and Jo Becker published Wednesday is "so detailed," a simple Google search of its contents "results in the young man's name within seconds." Newhouse's specific charge: The story quotes his next-door neighbor and names his neighborhood. It describes the detailed circumstances of a car accident which was reported in local papers at the time. It says he liked to wear tie-dyed socks. None of these details have anything to do with why or how the boy was allegedly befriended and then assaulted over several years by Sandusky. They only serve to make the boy easily identifiable. You could call the anonymity maintained in the story a polite fiction, but there is nothing polite about it. Protecting the identify of a rape/sexual assault victim is considered sacrosanct among journalists. Rarely if ever are names divulged -- or identifies revealed, in so many words, as The Times has done. The Times is taking criticism from one of its own.

We got a taste of what is to come from the Muslim Brotherhood’s co-sponsored “kill the Jews” pep rally held last Friday in Cairo. According to a report in YNet News, about 5,000 people joined the rally at Cairo’s most prominent mosque, the Al-Azhar mosque. Over and over again, the crowd chanted passages from the Koran vowing that “one day we shall kill all the Jews.” The rally was co-sponsored by the Al-Azhar University, which President Obama had referred to as a “beacon of learning” in his June 2009 speech to the Muslim world, and by the Union of Muslim Scholars. frontpagemag.com
