PIPER ON THE PALIN PHENOMENON WITH
MICHAEL COLLINS PIPER
Post-Newsweek
Portrays
Palin as Divine Choice

(AFP) astounded many — on both the “left”
and the “right” — with its no-holds-barred
report, The Power Behind Sarah Palin,
demonstrating that Palin’s political and
financial fortunes have been enthusiastically
advanced by the “liberal” Washington
Post- Newsweek media empire in collaboration
with the “conservative” Fox media
combine of Rupert Murdoch.
 AFP
still stands alone in having drawn attention to
the ambiguity of the “liberal” Post-Newsweek
combo being a force behind Palin — a point
many grassroots liberals and conservatives alike
seem unable to understand, captivated as they
are by the phony “liberal-conservative”
paradigm advanced by the controlled media.
The
key here is that both the Post-Newsweek
and Murdoch conglomerates have deep, long-standing
ties to the tentacles of the Rothschild banking
dynasty.
To
further affirm AFP’s contention, Newsweek
came back on June 21 with a remarkable cover story
about Palin entitled “Saint Sarah.”
Subtitled “What Palin’s appeal to
conservative Christian women says about feminism
and the future of the religious right,”
the article featured an attractive cover portrait
of Palin looking heavenward with her hands together
as if in prayer.
Then,
inside the magazine, on the contents page, Newsweek
featured an appealing full-page picture of Palin,
wearing a baseball-style cap affixed with a cross,
accompanied by a large-type legend reporting:
“To some, Palin is a prophet, ordained by
God for a special role in the cosmic battle against
the forces of evil.”
The
actual article begins with a two-page spread featuring
a lady’s hand reaching up to heaven with
bright lights and pink crosses in the background,
with the big title “Saint Sarah,”
underscored by the bald statement (repeating the
earlier claim) that “To white evangelical
women, Sarah Palin is a modern-day prophet, preaching
God, flag and family — while remaking the
religious right in her own image.”
Throughout
the article are pictures of wholesome wives and
mothers with children praying, reaching out enthusiastically
to Palin, etc. One actually shows a woman’s
head bowed before Palin, as if she is about to
kiss Palin’s ring. Readers who doubt these
descriptions may consult that issue of Newsweek
for themselves.
The
entire tone of the article suggested — as
other Post-Newsweek reports have hinted
in the past — that Palin is effectively
the new “leader” of America’s
women — a “post-feminist feminist.”
She has emerged as a preeminent power over what
has been known as “the religious right.”
Actually,
the article’s theme was not so much a report
of what is, but rather what the Post-Newsweek
empire desires. That is, the Post-Newsweek
controllers are trying to place Palin in the leadership
position they are describing.
Newsweek
has been unrelenting in its Palin promotion. The
Oct. 4 issue came back with a roar, featuring
a cover story entitled “The Bear Truth”
and subtitled “Will the ‘mama grizzlies’
really protect America’s kids?” using
terminology crafted by Palin to describe herself
as a mother grizzly bear looking out for America’s
young people. The cover of the magazine featured
pictures of Palin and three other prominent and
undeniably good-looking female Republican candidates:
Christine O’Donnell, candidate for the Senate
in Delaware; Nikki Haley, candidate for the governorship
of South Carolina, and Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.).
All
three women are dressed in red. Newsweek’s
editors did not select these photographs by accident.
In advertising, the color red is considered eye-catching
and figuratively inflaming.
Inside
the magazine, Newsweek featured a two-page
spread of an illustration of “mama grizzlies”
with their cubs surrounded by bumper stickers
and campaign signs including ones proclaiming
“Palin/President ’12.” Two subsequent
pictures accompanying the story were similar:
a mama bear baring her paws and wearing a “Sarah
Palin 2012” button and another of a mama
bear in an eye-catching forest decorated with
a “Sarah Palin 2012” campaign signs
alongside signs for other female GOP candidates.
In
short, this issue of Newsweek was essentially
another promotion of Sarah Palin for president.
If this were advertising instead of “news,”
it would have cost Palin or her backers a fortune.
On
Oct. 7, The Washington Post devoted a
page of its Sunday opinion section to Matthew
Continetti, the opinion editor of Zionist billionaire
Rupert Murdoch’s Weekly Standard,
who promptly shot down what he said were five
“myths” about Palin:
That
1) she cost John McCain the 2008 election; 2)
she made a mistake resigning as Alaska’s
governor before her term was over; 3) she and
her tea party supporters are destroying the GOP;
4) she is “extreme”; and 5) she is
“unelectable.”
Continetti
emphasized that, before he was elected president,
GOP icon Ronald Reagan was called “extreme”
and “unelectable.” This echoed previous
over-the-top commentary by other Palin promoters
in the Post calling Palin “the
new Ronald Reagan.”
That
the Post would hand a Standard
henchman the opportunity to promote Palin is not
so surprising, considering the fact that both
the Post and the Standard —
one “liberal” and the other “conservative”—have
been acting as Palin cheerleaders for several
years. In fact, the Standard’s
editor, William Kristol, the neo-conservative
warmonger and Bilderberg figure, is known to have
been the prime mover behind Palin’s placement
on the 2008 ticket. As a recent Vanity Fair
article noted, he is in close contact with
Palin, one of her chief advisors.
Ironically,
Kristol’s Standard deputy, Continetti,
authored a pro-Palin puff book, The Persecution
of Sarah Palin: How the Elite Media Tried to Bring
Down a Rising Star. Considering the elite
media’s actual promotion of Palin, this
is clearly a falsely titled book.
