NPR forced to apologize after boosting Media Matters' lie that National Review editor used 'racial slur'
NPR has apologized after boosting the Media Matters lie that National Review's Rich Lowry used a racial slur on Megyn Kelly's show when he fumbled over the words "migrants" and "immigrants," making some launch the false accusation that he said the n-word in a September 15 show with Kelly. The outlet came out with a story dedicated to apologizing for originally headlining, "Conservative editor-in-chief appears to use racial slur to refer to Haitian migrants" after Lowry, who even addressed the word mix-up prior to the story getting drafted. The outlet, after recognizing its mistake, changed the headline to "Conservative editor-in-chief says mispronunciation led to accusations of using slur." (Post Millenial 10/5/24) READ MORE>>>>>

Dershowitz joins Miami Herald effort to get full list of Epstein ‘John Does’ unsealed
MIAMI — Famed lawyer Alan Dershowitz has asked the judge in a previously settled and sealed libel suit involving Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s longtime girlfriend, to unseal a full list of “J. Does” — associates of the sex-trafficking multimillionaire who were named in the course of the litigation. The judge this week unsealed the file — and released the first 1,000 pages of documents — but did not provide a who’s-who index of those who had come up as witnesses, victims or colleagues of the notorious couple. Dershowitz, who was a friend of and lawyer for the late financier, is piggybacking on a motion made by The Miami Herald, which spent years in court trying to get the full, unredacted file unsealed, finally succeeding this week.
