Newsweek is
Dead...
But Will AFP
Survive?
• Major U.S. weekly mainstream magazine says it can’t afford to put out print edition any longer

. Newsweek is dead. Long live AMERICAN
FREE PRESS. That’s right. At the end of
2012, Newsweek — the always reliable
(but financially troubled) voice for the
interests of the plutocratic elite — will no longer be
published, except online.
First launched in 1933 by a clique of Wall Street
money men, Newsweek was merged in 1937 with a
journal controlled by W. Averill Harriman (a frontline
New World Order advocate in the foreign policy
establishment) whose family’s railroad empire
was bankrolled by Rothschild-linked financial institutions
on American shores.
In 1961 Newsweek was grabbed up by the
Washington Post media company of Wall Street
war profiteer, Eugene Meyer— an early member
of the Federal Reserve System board of governors
and later head of the World Bank — whose extended
family included the grand rabbi of France
and the owners of the San Francisco-based Levi
Strauss garment giant whose heirs comprise one
of the world’s largest fortunes.
In her suppressed biography of Meyer’s daughter,
Katharine Graham, author Deborah Davis documented
that the Post-Newsweek combine “grew
up by trading information with the intelligence
agencies,” most especially the CIA.
The two publications were, in short, propaganda
outlets, a point made clear when they played
the pivotal role in “Watergating” President Richard
Nixon, at precisely the time Nixon was engaged in
a behind-the-scenes struggle with Israel and its allies
at the CIA over U.S. Middle East policy. At one
point, Nixon even threatened to go public — during
his State of the Union address — and expose the intrigues
of the Israeli lobby to the American people.
Although two Zionist billionaires — industrialist
Sidney Harman and Hollywood kingpin Barry
Diller — consecutively bought Newsweek during
the last year, they were unable to keep the magazine
alive.
All of this cuts to why it is so important AFP
readers continue to support our populist weekly —
one lone voice countering the media monopoly.
AFP doesn’t — at least not yet — have financial
backing from the patriotic millionaires (and billionaires)
we know are out there and who are reading
AFP. We need your generous support. It’s time you,
too, join the ranks of those middle-class folks who
support AFP. Help keep AFP doing the important
job it does each week. We’re waiting to hear from
you. Now. Don’t let AFP end up like Newsweek. Call
