Newsday does it again.

[Reality]

In line with their hypocritical thought processes, Newsday has done it again with today's editorial page.

After agreeing that the war against Iraq was the proper thing to do, Newsday is now lambasting the government for refusing to allow the press to photograph coffins being unloaded at a military base in Dover. It would seem that Newsday sees this as a photo-op in order to oppose the very war they endorsed, and incite others to do likewise. There is no other purpose for the photographs, and their touting of the 1st Amendment rings very hollow indeed. We all know what coffins and body bags look like, and do not need to see them on the front page of Newsday every day, nor do the families of those brave soldiers still serving in Iraq.

Please note that this editorial comes on the heel of Veteran's Day, a time when we should be honoring our war dead, not making political statements with them.

Just for the record, Veterans Day is a day for us to honor the war "living". It is meant to be a tribute to all the living veterans of wars past.

Memorial Day is when we are to honor the war "dead".

Sorry, just a personal thing that I don't like to see confused. I always feel as though Veterans Day is a forgotten holiday.

[Reality]

for confusing the two days of rememberance. In any event our veterans, whether alive or dead, deserve more respect from all of us.

Anybody catch Friday's editorial about OTHER papers needing to be more responsible and check their facts before printing things? How about Newsday takes the lead on this initiative? Thanks for the laugh.

Thank You for posting your reply !
You are 100% correct and many forget that !!

Wow - I never realized the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day - thanks for the insight. I think it is deplorable that the El Salvadorian parade in Brentwood drew over 5,000 people and no where near that amount of people show up for Veterans or Memorial day. These are the people that fought for OUR freedom.

Of course more people show up at the El Salvadorian parade. Who would you rather be around, a bunch of cantankerous old vets, or some sexy señoritas in skimpy summer outfits? Sound like a no-brainer to me!

[RalphsNeice]

Committing to defend your country is one of the most personal things a man or woman can do. Our men and women in uniform deserve respect, admiration, support, and the very best equipment etc we can give them. Newsday should be ashamed.

Newsday relies on it's advertising and local reports about Long Island (which includes sports) to make their money. People are more apt to get Newsday for the store coupons than it being a good newspaper to read.

We don't need a conservative paper at all. We need an unbiased paper that prints objectively and has editorials on both sides of the political spectrum!

The above posting was correct; Buy The New York Post. Go right past the 'hollywood' type stories which seem to be somewhat popular in every paper and go straight to the Editorial section. It's excellent. Also, the 'meaty' stories in the paper are very interesting and overlooked in the more liberal papers.
About Memorial Day: If you want to participate, or watch, a first rate Memorial Day Parade, you MUST see the Little Neck, Queens, Memorial Day Parade. The Little Neck/Douglaston community is JUST over the Nassau border in Queens and it's a great parade. Many people participate in it, including Many schools, clubs, Departments, pipe bands and politicians. It's the 2nd largest Memorial parade IN THE COUNTRY, only behind Chicago.

[Justice777]

Yes the parades from other nations are becoming more popular than American parades, sad as that fact is. This is exactly why I feel that this country is separating into subsets of people who refuse to assimilate and don't relate at all to Americans now or the Vets who died in previous wars so that they can live free here. America is no longer a melting pot, just sub cultures of people all relating to themselves only, and their "mother" country. I see people sporting flags from their own country of origin rather than proudly flying the flag of the country they now live in who provide them with so many freedoms and services. They live here but are not loyal to and refuse to relate to the country who took them in for a better life. This is a growing national trend of fragmentation going on and I feel this is a very negative phenomenon. And a great dishonor to our Vets who died for all of us here and the ones who now fight overseas.

[NewsdayBlows]

Liberal Rag....Need I say more?

[Proof Reader]

More Binder bashing. More Tonna groping.

Taking Leg. Binder to task for observing his religion is wrong. I hope Newsday remembers to time Mr. Tonna's exit on Good Friday.

And, why exactly is Leg. Binder's suggestion for a little decorum such a problem for Newsday anyway? Anyone who has attended a session or read their minutes would have noticed a certain disconcerting laxness that is not appropriate for the serious nature of the business at hand and the responsibility bestowed upon our paid legislature and its employees.

The transparently negative job Newsday is trying to do on Leg. Binder makes me respect him even more. Same for Mr. Tonna - except in the opposite direction.

[IslipDem]

I read the editorial and didn't take the comment about Leg. Binder as a knock on him. More a complaint that the meeting was scheduled at a time when at least 1 of the Legislators would have to leave. And that Schedule wasn't fair to Leg. Binder.

[SC Legislature]

Don't always agree with Allan but he is a hardworker who let's you know where he stands on issues. He doesn't do things behind his constituents backs like some legislators. Newsday can't stand him because of his disregard for Newsday's endorsements. He stood in front of their white fortress in Melville and told them he didn't ever want their support. That took guts and character. Most people, even those who are Democrats liked that display against a arrogant and dishonest newspaper.

[watcherdem]

Ditto - and what a crack about grandstanding at the funeral. I was there, and he was the one who spoke from the heart and touched everyone there -- the guy was in tears and couldn't speak.
Why is it that some people, and Newsday, practice the art of personal bashing -------probably because they haven't amounted to much in their lives and don't think much of themselves

[need more Binders]

His constituents know this and even if you don't always agree with him you know that he believes its the right thing to do. Thats a lot better then politicians who say what you want to hear and then do the opposite of what they say and hope you forget.

[btween the lines]

Newsday hates Republicans and are full of it when they say they only want a level playing field - they are the ultimate apologists for the Dems in both counties.
Suozzi raises salaries.........great. Souzzi has corruption.........no problem, no investigation needed here, like we do to Republicans. Nassau Dems Jacob has iron fist on a Rules Committee where every bill MUST got there first.......nothing Newsday feels the need to write about. Levy, campaigns on streamlined more efficient government and puts three people in the job that one was doing.........good for him (except for Sabatino). Levy campaigns on NO drivers, but plans on having some and we will still employ those he dismissed costing more money.........nothing to write about. Levy wants only the best professionals and proposes an inexperience negligence lawyer for County Attny along with a Schaffer cronie and an absentee low functioning town attorney..........hey isn't he the greatest for putting in all women. Levy proposes to take away the huge salary increases at the Community College, but they were never really approved by the Legislature or would ever be signed off on by the Comptroller.............just a small mistake, leave him alone. Levy's $1million savings isn't even smoke an mirrors, there are no savings, just a press conference to make him look like he's delivering on his campaign pledge............hey, maybe if we don't write about it, no one will notice.

We all know Republicans are not treated with such kid gloves. Maybe if more Republican electeds would do what Binder did, maybe they'd be exposed and show just a little more journalistic ethics. Naw, they're too fat and happy and scared to rock the boat.....they won't take any chance on hurting themselves, even to help the party. And that's the biggest problem with the Reps, their wimpy electeds, who don't know if they're Reps or Dems........but Newsday knows!

[The need competition]

Newsday will sell papers until Long Islanders have a daily alternative that provides local sports scores and local news in addition to the larger state, national, and world news. Any viable alternative would enjoy immediate success.

[Justice777]

Time to Boycott Newsday and get a Newspaper that actually promotes America instead of selling us out. Any ideas?????? I am ready to cancel my subscription

Will Newsday continue to be a publicity arm for the Nassau and Suffolk Democratic Committees if Frank Zarb purchases the paper?

:x You see the editorial by Klurfeld on how terrible it is to be labeled racist /

I guess thats why that a--hole labels along with his paper "newsday" many decent people as racist when they run for political office.

Klurfeld and newsday owe Republican Rich McGrath an apology.

They slandered him right before the town board election in Huntington 2003.

Obviously it was to protect the corrupt Democrat town board.

[Pissed C/O]

I personally think newsday i snothing but a Dirty rag sheet. You can't beleive a thing you read in it. They never print anything that should be printed and only print what that STUPID editor wants printed.
Why would they not print sonething about Sufolk County C/O's nto haveing a contract and being without a raise for 51 months? That should be news to the public, truthful news. The fact of the matter is that the person negotiating for the county refuses to give a fair contract to the men and women who risk their lives every day of the year (Holidays included) working inside the jails of suffok county makign sure the scum of the earth(Prisoners) don't escape, don't kill themselves, get what they are supposed to have and watch them without getting injured or murdered themselves. DOES ANYONE GIVE A DAM ABOUT THE C/O's??? They are mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, and possibly YOUR NEIGHBIOR that may come to help in your time of need. Why tell me, why doesnot newsday print articles like this and try to help these people with the county? because it si nto BIG news to them.
I knwo, becAUSE i AM A c/o AND HAVE SENT NUMEROUS LETTERS TO NEWSDAY ONLY TO BE TURNED DOWN FOR THEY REFUSE TO PRINT THEM.

Maybe so, but that is still no reason Newsday doesnt print what needs to be printed. They edit and print what is Politically correct in their eyes only. That is B _ _ _ S _ _ T. Suffolk County workers need some news coverage too. I stopped purchasing Newsday and will NEVER purchase it again until they start providing coverage for US (county workers) for without us county workers this county would turn into a pile of S _ _ T.

PLUS:::: COUNTY WORKERS ARE NOT ONLY WORKERS WE ARE TAXPAYERS TOO. DONT FORGET THAT.

[newsday su-ks]

why dont you help organize a boycott of that hypocritical corrupt newspaper

Klurfeld even just made a statement how being labeled a racist is the worst thing going for a political figure

thats why he and his crummy paper taint their opposition with that broad brush :twisted:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is an excerpt from Mr.Klurfeld's Editorial on April 13 2007

Klurfeld:
"That Imus is now off TV and radio illustrates a positive development: The worst thing that you can be labeled these days is a racist. It's like touching the third rail of American culture. You can be an adulterer and your career may survive. Just look at Bill Clinton and Rudy Giuliani in the political realm. You can even be a convicted criminal and still make a comeback. But once you're tagged as a racist, you're finished."



Maybe thats why the Democrats and Newsday like to tag certain people who are against their political agenda as racists, once they do they're finished.

I would have sued the beejeebes out of Klurfeld and that disgusting excuse of a newspaper back in 2003 when Newsday and Klurfeld slandered the Republican candidates with being racists.

It was pure evil to do that and the candidates and their families did suffer greatly because of it.

Maybe there can be justice after all if that paper folds.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



-To be more precise this was the town board race in Huntington in 2003. It was a deliberate hit job by the newspaper and Klurfeld only a few days before the election.

:x Saw this on news12. Makes my blood boil. Obvious why Newsday editorial board uses that word in Klurfeld's own words. Plus he's on the side of Sharpton and Jackson against Imus. Imus was wrong and apologized but Sharpton and Klurfeld wanted to destroy him.

BOYCOTT NEWSDAY AND THEIR EDITORIAL BOARD LED BY JAMES KLURFELD THE SLANDERER

[newsdays stalinist ways]

Klurfeld has helped silence critics by slander

the race word is very effective even if it's a lie

it does give JK and newsday considerable power and influences

for his part Klurfeld should be made to live in one of Donald Pius's houses of death on Pulaski Road

even the poor illegals deserve better than that

but you cant help them

cause Newsday wont let you ,the slumlord wins again and again............

The truth is the Newsday editorial board is prejudice. They have pre-conceived notions and opinions regarding Correction Officers, in both Nassau and Suffolk. Thats a fact, they'll never admit to it themselves or anyone else, but it is the truth.

newsday will never change the editors would rather see a dead newpaper than to be balanced and honest

the paper hates all American workers in uniform

maybe if we outsourced all of those jobs to immigrants Newsday would change their evil ways huh :x

I didn't realize people still read Newsday. While I peruse the website often to keep up on local news I never read the actual paper anymore. The quality of writing has gone downhill in the past fifteen years.

Klurfeld's biggest supporter is George Soros and moveon.org

paper has hit the gutter and is falling further from objectivity

May 1st is a big day for Newsday and it's supporters-thats when all the communists and socialists who support illegal aliens will march in our streets waving foreign flags and saying they have to have civil rights to take from the American taxpayer-this is Newsday big day :twisted:
