Joe in Newsweek Korea PLUS L.A. BBQ Festival
2009-09-03 03:44:00 An essay I wrote on the Korean government’s ham-handedness in promoting Korean cuisine overseas has been published in this week’s Newsweek Korea. It’s in Korean, but I am making the original English version available for download here. It’s mostly about how the government and some private entities aren’t even bothering to ask foreigners what they like. They’re forcing what they themselves like onto the market, like expensive royal court cuisine and ddeokbokki/”topoki”- (see “Agriculture Ministry is Officially NUTS“). With impeccable timing to prove my point, reader Edward brings to my attention a post by Food Comma that L.A. has just finished a Korean BBQ festival and contest. I’ve been making the rounds to any Korean who would bother to listen to me that Korea, with all its festivals, really needs a BBQ festival. Can you believe they don’t have any? They have a giant festival for rice cakes but not o...
Newsweek Slams Oprah

For Anyone Still Wondering Why Newsweek is Failing
2009-06-06 20:26:00 Newsbusters’ Kyle Drennen tells us: Newsweek editor Evan Thomas brought adulation over President Obama’s Cairo speech to a whole new level on Friday, declaring on MSNBC: “I mean in a way Obama’s standing above the country, above – above the world, he’s sort of God.” Thomas, appearing on Hardball with Chris Matthews, was reacting to a preceding monologue in which Matthews praised Obama’s speech: “I think the President’s speech yesterday was the reason we Americans elected him. It was grand. It was positive. Hopeful…But what I liked about the President’s speech in Cairo was that it showed a complete humility…The question now is whether the President we elected and spoke for us so grandly yesterday can carry out the great vision he gave us and to the world.” He’s got vid of the event, too. Is there something in the HVAC over there, that brings these kind of drooling comments out? Or is it just that GE, and thereby ...

Josef Joffe on Arab Judeophobia, in Newsweek of all places!!
2009-03-02 23:48:00 The situation is very threatening what with Obama openly spitting in the Jews' faces, what with assigning the Muslims in the United States a higher status than the Jews and promising to cater to Muslim needs, plus his wishy-washy stand on the Durban II atrocity known in advance and the Chaz Freeman appointment to provide the prez with intelligence summaries [whereas Freeman is a Saudi agent and a Chinese (PRC) agent] and the 900 million bucks for rebuilding Gaza, thus rewarding Hamas for attempting to kill Jews every day, while providing no money for the material damage the Hamas sweethearts did in Israel. Obama is as bad or worse than friends of Israel and of a decent, pro-American policy in the Middle East warned of. Obama would seem to have a natural inclination to send US reps to Geneva for the Durban 2 mob extravaganza. This is because Durban I was a Ford Foundation project, and probably Durban 2 too, and his mother and Sec'y of the Treasury Geithner's father worked together...

One Out of 1.3 Billion Loses It And Newsweek Proclaims China As "Most
2008-11-17 03:42:00 "Santa Clara" is among my Google alerts because my eldest daughter studies engineering at the University there. Friday, it was filled with stories of an engineer (apparently Chinese-American) who, after being laid off from his high tech start-up, killed three people at the company where he once worked. The story bothered me, but it did not worry me about my kid (who was in Palo Alto in any event) because these sorts of things are random and can happen anywhere. I drew no conclusions from these murders about Chinese-Americans, San Clarans, high tech workers, Californians, or we 300 or so million Americans. But when one out of 1.3 billion Chinese loses it and commits murder, there are apparently all sorts of things we can and should extrapolate. In "Murder at the Drum Tower," Newsweek uses the knifing of the Minnesota couple inside Beijing's drum tower during the Olympics as evidence of China being on the verge of a total meltdown. The article tells us that the perpetrator, a M...

China Real Estate. Newsweek Says It's All Good.
2008-10-13 06:36:00 One of the advantages to living in a city without a decent newspaper is that until only a few weeks ago, virtually every article on local real estate would quote a local realtor talking about how the market is fine and how now is the time to buy a house. As a homeowner, reading those articles always made me feel a little bit better. Lately though, even our two local papers are starting to catch on. Newsweek is apparently a bit slower as it just came out with an article with all of the requisite quotes from realtors telling us how China is different and why real estate will always be a great investment in China. The article is entitled, "Great Expectations," and subtitled, "Real estate around the world may be on the skids, but China's homeowners are feeling little pain." One of the best things that ever happened to me occurred during my first year of legal practice. I worked on a massive case representing the FDIC in trying to figure out who was liable for the collapse o...

Back To The Future
2008-06-02 14:05:00 Time Warner and GE goin' to The Chapel of Love? Yeah, yeah, yea-yeah-yeah. Newsweek: A goal for GE would be to avoid the huge tax bill it would incur in selling NBC Universal outright to Time Warner in a transaction valued in the tens of billions of dollars, say the sources familiar with the situation. One model for such a transaction might be the deal GE struck in 2003 to bulk up NBC by combining it with Universal, then owned by Vivendi. That combination left the French company with a hefty, though minority, 20 percent stake in NBC Universal. Under a similar scenario, Time Warner and GE could combine most, if not all, of their entertainment operations into a newly formed separate company, in which Time Warner would be the majority owner. The bet is investors would better recognize the value of a pure entertainment entity with big media brands, propelling the stocks of parent companies Time Warner and GE. And if that happens, the two Jeffs might just live out their corporate car...

2008-05-31 17:22:00 Interview With Ron Paul (Newsweek) Talks about Bob BarrIt is time for The R3volution to continue the fight. I welcome any and all with open arms to the Libertarian partyJOHN McCain may be the presumptive nominee, but the Republican race isn't over—at least not to Ron Paul. The Texas congressman remains an official GOP candidate and has about $5 million in the bank, and a mighty band of fanatical followers. Will the fiercely antiwar conservative become a distraction for McCain at the Republican convention? Paul spoke with NEWSWEEK's Daniel Stone. Excerpts: What kind of presence will you have at the convention? We'll have a big rally there one of the days. Since they won't give us a spot, we'll make our own spot. We won't disrupt things—that doesn't achieve anything. But we'll have a presence and present views and try to … get in on the committees to vote on platforms. That's not disruptive.

ArtSunday: ?The Thirteen American Arguments?
2008-05-18 06:21:00 The Thirteen American Arguments: Enduring Debates That Define and Inspire Our Country by Howard Fineman Random House, 320 pp. Americans love to argue. In fact, we would not be Americans if we didn?t. So says journalist Howard Fineman in his new book, The Thirteen American Arguments: Enduring Debates that Define and Inspire Our Country. Arguing, Fineman says, is what we do and who we are. ?We are the arguing country, born in and born to debate,? he writes. ?We are an endless argument.? Fineman is Newsweek?s senior Washington correspondent and columnist, and he?s a news analyst for NBC and MSNBC. By his own description, he has covered every presidential campaign and major candidate since 1983. In The Thirteen American Arguments, Fineman taps into his decades of experience to find perspective on the American experiment. He looks not at petty partisan bickering and political posturing but rather at the larger, fundamental questions Americans have wrestled over since the country?s foundi...

Newsweek and the GOP onslaught- McCain response
2008-05-12 17:16:00 Man! Obama sure is lucky that he has more money and academia, most major newspapers, and almost all of the television networks on his side. He's going to need it when he goes against the vicious GOP attack machine this fall. Poor guy. In more evidence that I have, in fact, entered an alternate reality, Newsweek claims that the Republican attack machine, not theirs, is the scarier monster. Have they ever heard Howard Dean? Daily Kos? Huffington? How about using this Newsweek attack piece to preempt any McCain criticisms of Obama? I think this whole "GOP is meaner than us" is catching on amongst the easily self-deluded and self-righteous left. Here's the original Newsweek article. Below is the McCain campaign response by Mark Salter: Dear Jon, A useful way to read the piece would be to try to imagine you were a Republican reading it. The characterization of Republican presidential campaigns as nothing more than attack machines that use 527s and other means to smear opponent...

Karl Rove: Fox In The Hen House
2008-04-27 15:09:00 Unsolicited advice to Obama from Fox News political guru, the redeemed Karl Rove: "You're making mistakes and making people worry that you're an elitist. So while you'll almost certainly win the nomination, Democrats are nervous about the fall. You've given them reasons to be." More at NewsweekMaureen Dowd NYT likens Obama's waning life force to vampire chick lit. "She?s the one who is more energetic and focused and beaming, and he?s the one who seems uneven and gauzy, often fatigued and unable to disguise being fed up with the slog... Even his speeches don?t have the same pizazz.Even some Obama fans find Hillary?s toughness and shameless shape-shifting compelling.

Newsweek Pokes Holes in Joe Cimperman’s Attacks Against Dennis Kucinich
2008-03-04 09:46:00 Fact Checking the “Dump Dennis” ad, Justin Bank, Newsweek Former Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich is now fighting to hold onto his House seat in Cleveland, Ohio. He’s the target of a tough attack ad that says he “gives a lot of speeches” but “doesn’t get much done.” But the ad is a textbook example of deceptive political advertising – it uses dramatic-sounding numbers that, put into context, aren’t such a big deal after all: The ad, by challenger Joe Cimperman, says that under Kucinich’s watch, “we’ve lost 38,000 jobs.” That’s the decline in employment figures for an Ohio county, part of which Kucinich serves. But we’re sure that one congressman doesn’t bear the sole responsibility for such job losses. The ad says Kucinich “passed only one bill” in Congress, a claim based on the fact that he was the lead sponsor on only one bill that was signed into law. But...
