Another Sunday, more Obsession

That's the right-wing, anti-Muslim DVD that's being stuffed into millions of Sunday newspapers in swing states across the country and continues to cause controversy. Critics fear the biased documentary may be leading to violence against Muslims.

Newspapers that accept money from the DVD's backers to distribute the fear-mongering film insists they can't reject the insert based on content. But lots of leading newspapers, including the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Detroit Free Press, and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and The News & Record of Greensboro, N.C., have done just that.

And the publisher of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel now says that if forced to make the decision again, her paper would not distribute the DVD.

More problematic is the fact that several newspaper that have distributed the DVD have also written up front page news articles explaining the decision, thereby providing the right-wing backers of the film a day's worth of free publicity.
