Please do not overlook Jimmy Carter, an antiSemite and anti-American bigot who promotes his apartheid book and criticizes critics of his biased and erroroneou book as Jewish critics. This fool who bears the appropriate label as the most incompetent American president in recent memory freely crtiticizes the President both here and abroad, contrary to the tradition of former Presidents not criticizing a sitting President and also travels abroad for his paid lectures to criticize the United States. Some suggest he should be charged with treason and I agree.

Thanks for confirming my doubts on media manipulation, you're doing a great job. Do you have anyone set up in Spain to follow the Spanish and Catalan press and news? You could do with someone here too. Thanks again and good luck. I hope there is less to report in 2007.

Keep up the good work. We in mid America need to see and hear this. I forward alot of these emails to friends and family.

Keep up the good work. It inofrms us of all the bias which really is anti-semitism. I am not Jewish and yet I am appalled at the amount of anti-semitic sentiment among the non-thinking idiots of the planet.

Sussess is always heted and you form the most successful ethnic group on this planet (count your Nobel Prizes)
You have brought so much innovation and justice (every human rights case has Jewish lawyer) to humanity

ALL THE BEST TO YOU ALL WHO TOIL TO BRING US THIS.

Thankful for your presenting factual rather than doctored information!
Keep up good work and presenting much needed input.

Yep, there's lots of dishonesty spewing from the Mid-East, but that's not surprising, considering the Arab-Muslim capacity for hyperbole, rumors and blood libels. The viscious cartoons, the Elders of the Protocols of Zion mini-series (quite popular with moronic viewers), Holocaust denial, 9-11 conspiracy theories involving Mossad, and the selective outrage which ignores real genocide like Darfur (committed mostly by Arab Janjaweed) all demonstrate the sick society of third world Islam. The lies start in their elementary school textbooks, so at what point are they supposed to objectively weigh the truth? How can anyone see the truth through lenses of hatred toward Israel and Jews in general?

Congratulations on your persistent endeavours. In an age where so much hypocrisy focuses for so long on such a tiny portion of humanity, yours is a worthwhile effort.

The world community has always needed someone to pick on. The easiest victim has always been the Jews - spread out all over the world, no central strength to protect them - so the world has continued to blame/bully them for any or everything that comes (or is manufactured) to pass. The fact that Israel - a national power, a source of central strength - sticks in the throats of the world community. No wonder they are so eager to continue to blame the Jews for all ill happenings and ferverently wish for Israel's demise. The very fact of Israel's existence is an outrage to the mind-set of the world!

You would find plenty of dishonest and disproportionate comment in Swedish newspapers, Aftonbladet to mention just one. The state run TV and radio are good runners up.

Thank you Honest Reporting,
for another year of vigilance. You speak for the masses whose words fail them when confronted by the hate in the world and you don't allow any attack, any falsehood to go unanswered.

Is there some petition on-line that can be signed and sent to these media-morons who actually have no clue what real/true journalism is all about. If they see enough of us who have had it--the MIGHT--just might get it. All these reports have accomplished one thing for most Americans who have a brain that works--we DO NOT watch or listen to mainstream media. Why would we subject ourselves to drivel?
Thanks for your work and keep it up--we need you.

And how you leave out Perennial Israel Hater and 'Anti-Zionist' (cough) Chris McGreal of Guardian.
The MOST anti-Israel reporter working for the MOST anti-Israel Daily in the West.

Wow! Thx so much Honest Reporting for the important work you do! We need so much more media-scrutiny as you do, for all the lies that so freely flow, all based in seething hatred for Jews & Israel. May God deliver us soon from this declining world situation & bring true world peace & restoration..! Until then, keep up the good work - kol ha kavod!

Max

your 2006 dishonest reporting awards -
excellent summary.

I am absolutely dumbfounded by the greatness of your work. "Honest Reporting" is worthy of a Nobel Prize for the pursuit of justice.
Your role is synonymous with that of the guardian angels of Israel and the Jewish community.
May you continue to go from strenth to strength.
