NY Times Editor Keller Snipes at Fox and ‘Mumbling’ Murdoch, Hypocritically Ducks ‘Baseball Bat’ Offer
June 4, 2011 No CommentEsquire’s Scott Raab recently interviewed the New York Times's soon-to-be-former executive editor, Bill Keller (before his resignation announcement), on the release of a documentary, “Page One: A Year Inside the New York Times.” Keller gave no hint of resignation plans in the lunchtime chat at a Midtown restaurant, artfully evading the question “Do you see yourself doing this job in five or ten years?” Keller was in usual form, sniping at Fox News and taking another personal swipe at Fox's owner, News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch,

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Google Inc revealed on Wednesday that unknown hackers likely originating from central China tried to hack into the Gmail accounts of hundreds of users, including senior U.S. government officials, Chinese activists and journalists. The world’s largest Internet company said on its official blog that the hackers, who appeared to originate from Jinan, China, recently tried to crack and monitor email accounts by stealing passwords, but Google detected and “disrupted” the campaign. It notified the victims and relevant governments, Google added in its blog post. Google shares slipped finished 0.7 percent lower at $525.60. “We recently uncovered a campaign to collect user passwords, likely through phishing,” Google said on its official blog. “This campaign, which appears to originate from Jinan, China, affected what seem to be the personal Gmail accounts of hundreds of users, including among others, senior U.S. government officials, Chinese political activists, officials in several Asian countries (predominantly South Korea), military personnel and journalists.” The United States has warned that a cyber attack — presumably if it is devastating enough — could result in real-world military retaliation, although analysts say it could be difficult to detect its origin with full accuracy. The attacks are the latest computer-based invasions directed at western companies and come a year after Internet giant Google and numerous companies were targeted by hackers traced to China. That previous incident triggered a highly-charged debate over the country’s censorship and rigid control of the Internet. Google eventually all but pulled out of China, despite the market’s massive growth opportunity. (Reporting by Alexei Oreskovic and Edwin Chan; editing by Andre Grenon) Copyright 2011 Thomson Reuters.

June 4, 2011 No CommentRep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO) went on the attack against same sex marriage Thursday at the Eagle Forum Collegians 2011 Summit in Washington, D.C. “Well, think about it,” she began. “That starts you down the road to opening up licensure to basically meaning that a license would mean nothing if you let everybody with that standard.” “For instance, you know, if you just care about somebody and have a committed relationship, why not allow one man and two women or three women to marry?” Hartzler asked. “Why not allow group marriage? There are people out there who want that.” “Why not allow an uncle to marry his niece? Why not allow a 50-year-old man to marry a 12-year-old girl if they love each other and they are committed?” she continued. “So, pretty soon if you don’t set parameters, you don’t have any parameters at all.” “It’s their right to marry whoever they want but we’re saying marriage is between a man and a woman… It’s not a right in the Constitution as far as that goes either. It’s not a right of anybody, of a three-year-old being able to drive a car.” Right Wing Watch noted that Hartzler has built her political career on opposing gay rights.
