Rutgers University in New Brunswick, N.J., is investigating an
incident in which a student-run satirical newspaper published an
article called "What About the Good Things Hitler Did?" while using a
real student's name and photograph, MyFoxNY reports.
That student, Aaron Marcus, is Jewish and said he can't believe the
paper would do something like that.
"To say anything praiseworthy of someone like Hitler, and to have
people actually believe it was coming from me even in a satirical
manner is just really painful for me and my family," Marcus told
MyFoxNY.

BFD Matt, especially from a satirical paper.
If you're so thin skinned that you think satire about Hitler is sick, maybe you should stick to subjects like knitting.
The paper should issue an obligatory apology, Marcus should accept it then forget the whole thing. Sheesh

If you had read the article what I found sick wasn't that article
but claiming it was written by a Jew that had family members in the
Holocaust. No the paper alone wasn't the problem at all.

Yes but those responsible should have thier dishonesty placed in
their record. Well guess they were just filling out a early resumes
for MSNBC. Edited audio or edited credits all the same if you hate.

Notice you did not counter the article just used a strawman. Fox is
always questionable then again they did not, like MSNBC edit audio

up to the viewer to tell the difference.

WASHINGTON -
U.S. retired Gen. Colin Powell said on Sunday the Republican Party
has failed to adequately represent America's blacks, but he would
consider serving as secretary of state under Republican George W.
Bush if the Texas governor wins the presidency.
Powell, a prominent black Republican whose popularity during the
Gulf War led to calls for him to step up as a presidential candidate
in 1996, has previously indicated he was notinterested in running
for vice president under Bush.
Powell said on Fox News Sunday the Republican Party is dangerously
close to being seen a party for whites, especially because of its
stand against affirmative action.
"It is certainly not seen as the black guy's party ... It has not
done well in the African-American community," Powell said in an
interview taped on Friday.
"I think too often the Republican Party has said we know what's best
for you as opposed to listening to the African-American community,
understanding some of the despair that exists in the African-American
inner city communities," he said.

a supporter of the Confederate flag being flown at the South Carolina
statehouse. He provoked controversy at a rally for the flag in 2000 when he

Ravenel upset even more people after he apologized to mentally handicapped
people for comparing them to the NAACP. Many called for the Charleston
bridge to be renamed.
Ravenel once said that his fellow white congressional committee members
operated on "black time", which he characterized as meaning "fashionably
