  Charles Johnson (blogger) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Johnson was born in New York and raised in Hawaii.
Johnson claims to have voted for Al Gore in 2000, but was deeply affected by the September 11, 2001 attacks and now describes himself (per neoconservative writer Irving Kristol) as "a liberal who got mugged by reality".
Johnson coined the term "idiotarian," popularized the epiphet "moonbat", and has also adopted the phrase "Religion of Peace", using it sarcastically to describe Islam.

 The Blogger Who Helped to Dislodge Dan Rather   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Johnson was no fan of George W. Bush, and ridiculed the president on his site.But the September 11 attacks changed all that.
Johnson who, copying the forgery from a PDF file CBS posted on its Web site, retyped the memo using Microsoft Word’s standard settings, and found that his version was identical in every detail to the one Dan Rather claimed had been typed on a manual typewriter some three decades earlier.
Johnson writes scathingly about the mainstream media, which he refers to by the derisory acronym “MSM.” He regularly castigates what might be termed the Guardian worldview abroad, and lashes out frequently at “al-Reuters” and other news services for their anti-American biases.

 uncoy.com | la vie viennoise : LGF and LGFers | trolls and lizards | brownshirts and nero's mob | fate of ernst roehm
charles johnson for some reason prefers to call his mob, lizards rather than trolls.
i understand that these are serious charges, but charles johnson has been guiding and shaping these assaults on the mild-mannered and sincere matthew yglesias, who is a guy who even has the courage to admit his own mistakes.
I don't think Tacitus is a conservative pro-war blogger of the 'anti-idiotarian' kind, the way CFJ is. On Tacitus you're quite likely to find some intelligent commentary and analysis, rather than just one endless ream of hate-filled postings by people who delight in other people's misery.

Charles Johnson must be pretty frustrated that Salam Pax (aka the Baghdad Blogger) is still around.
Oh, Charles, if you do get round to writing a post about this, don't forget to mention that Hohmann is a member of the conservative Christian Democrat party, the only mainstream party in Germany to have wholeheartedly supported the US invasion of Iraq.
Charles Johnson highlights (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=8740_Fear_Us_Oh_Europe) an interesting piece of news about an EU survey showing that most Europeans believe that the US and Israel are currently the greatest threats to world peace.

 Wingnut psychosis revisited | Loaded Mouth   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Johnson's first concern is for how the media will portray this massacre if the reports turn out to be true.
Johnson will stand with Bush's agenda no matter what, and the "what" in this sentence seems to be limitless.
Johnson, all that matters is that the media reports it.

 USS Clueless - Blogger conspiracy?
It seems that a lot of Blogger account passwords were changed to "1", possibly as many as 350,000 of them.
As I write this, Blogspot seems to be back up again, but it also seems that Blogger itself was storing FTP passwords for each account's host system online in clear and those may have been stolen, too.
Update: Blogger's server is still down, which means that any site maintained with it cannot be updated.

Roger L. Simon has just posted anOpen Letter to All Bloggers announcing that he and a couple of others are going to start a corporate advertising service which will sell ads to advertisers ‘en masse’.
My concern, as a definitely left-of-center blogger (though not purely political), is the rightward lean of the board.

Charles Johnson delights in listing every instance of religious lunacy on his blog - as long as it's Muslim lunacy, that is. Christian and Jewish lunacy apparently doesn't exist.
Charles Johnson, who attacked (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=10547_Boing_Boing_Joins_the_Bashers) a blogger named Kathryn Cramer and the site BoingBoing, is seeing his boomerang unexpectedly come back after failing to hit its target.

 BuzzMachine... by Jeff Jarvis
Iranian blogger ba2k publishes email from Said saying that he did not sign the petition and from Chomsky saying he did.
The blogger is shocked that the group did not find a single Iranian to sign its petition.
: Blogger and its new parent, Google, need to fix something: Hoder, who started the blogging revolution in Iran, reports that the new Blogger doesn't support unicode (which, I now learn, is a means of displaying no end of languages in browsers) and that means that the many Persian bloggers now using Blogspot can't.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Reporting the message to his readers, Johnson wrote on his website: "This particular death threat is a bit different from the run of the mill hate mail we get around here, because an IP lookup on the sender reveals that he/she/it was using an account at none other than Reuters News."
After bringing the threat to the attention of Reuters, Johnson was told by the news organization's Global Head of Communications, Ed Williams: "I can confirm that an employee has been suspended pending further investigation.
In an additional twist, Johnson traced the movements of the sender of the threat, and found direct parallels between the internet locations of the sender and Inayat Bunglawala, Media Secretary of the Muslim Council of Britain.

 Cox & Forkum: Down From The Mountain
Soon Charles Johnson, a Los Angeles musician-turned-conservative-blogger who hosts the site LittleGreenFootballs.com, posted the results of his own investigation [of the CBS Bush memos].
The article is very grudging in giving credit to blogs, going as far as to cast doubt on their legitimacy, but bloggers Scott Johnson (Power Line) and Charles Johnson (Little Green Footballs) are acknowledged for their breakthroughs in the faked memos story.
It took the savvy chappies at the Powerline Web site and Charles Johnson of ''Little Green Footballs'' about 20 minutes to spot the eerily 2004 look of the 1972 memo, and various Internet wallahs spent the rest of the day tracking down the country's leading typewriter identification experts.

You have got to be kidding me. I love Charles, but if an LLL had tried to 'prove' forgery through this technique, y'all would have (rightfully) laughed them off the site.
Charles - if you have time/inclination/etc - print the document - photocopy it - SCAN IT - and load it into Pshop and kill anti-aliasing.
Someone was kind enough to link the Charles' previous entry on this subject to Fark.com and it got "greenlighted" (posted on the front page).

 The Peking Duck: Charles Johnson does Auschwitz -- and gets it all wrong
My favorite wingnut racist blogger Charles Johnson yesterday wrote a piece commemorating the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, a place the very name of which has become synonymous with evil.
Johnson's piece is well intended; it offers a sketchy, History 101-type description of the death camp, the kind of thing you can find on any number of Web sites.
How odd, that Johnson doesn't see the extreme irony here -- that his own site is the kind of breeding ground for hatred and racism that made Auschwitz possible.

So, I am about to move from Blogger to Movable Type & from Blogspot to a server that will be leased cooperatively by a really weird--& I say that with affection, you understand--group of literary bloggers with a taste for the technical.
Blogger is an amazing tool & one that I will continue to use.
Without trying to support or refute anything either blogger wrote, I'd simply observe that whatever will replace marriage will probably be called marriage, even though if we came back in a hundred years we wouldn't recognize it.

The two main organizers of this ‘pajama party’, Roger Simon and Charles Johnson, will appear on Kudlow & Company this afternoon.
The name Pajamas Media is a not-so-subtle reference to the September remarks of CNN executive, Jonathan Klein, who said a typical blogger is just "a guy sitting in his living room in his pajamas.

Now, in spite of the conceits of these bloggers – some of whom seem to think that they're pulling off nothing less than a "technological Reformation" – the weblog as a form has been around a lot longer than the current crop.
These bloggers were inspired by the onset of the war, as Glenn Reynolds, the proprietor of Instapundit – kind of the New York Times of the bloggers' subuniverse – points out.
