Newsweek and the rest of the media need to get up off their knees and start fighting back. They've done enough apologizing.
The L.A. Times today reports on the dozens who have alleged mishandling of the Koran. Our compilation on prior Koran abuse claims is here. Our point: Attorney General Alberto Gonzales should appoint a special counsel to investigate the prisoner abuse claims.
