Print Joel B. Pollak Follow Read Full Bio New Yorker's Hagel Story Got One Thing Right: Breitbart's #WAR The New Yorker did get one thing right in its attack on Breitbart News today: "Where journalists are researchers, they see themselves as warriors, picking up Breitbart’s hashtagged mantle #WAR." 21 Feb 2013 In 'Friends of Hamas' Story, Media Fail to Pursue Full Disclosure from Hagel There were not one, but two Breitbart News stories about the allegation that "Friends of Hamas" had donated to organizations connected to former Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE). Both ran Feb. 7, and alongside one another, atop the site. The fact that the media have focused on the first, and ignored the second, is a testament to their refusal to hold Hagel to reasonable standards of disclosure, or to address the substantive issues releated to his associations. 21 Feb 2013 Another important message from a Hagel supporter 20 Feb 2013 Hagel 2007 Speech: North Korea 'Moving in the Right Direction' In a speech to the Cato Institute in July 2007, then-Sen.
