 Democratic Underground Forums - "Fred Barnes accuses Stephen Ambrose of plagiarizing some 3rd party"
I do not understand why a conservative hack like Fred Barnes in a right-wing rag like The Weekly Standard would be trying to attack one of their own.
It may also be that Barnes simply has a chubby for this cat Childers (who is quite a good historian, from what I understand, and turns out much more detailed stuff than Ambrose, and for whom the bomber story was a family labor of love) and is personally offended by Ambrose's use of his work.
I think that Fred Barnes, a plagiarizer himself, is just upset that Stephen Ambrose did not dedicate half a book to John Wayne and Ronald Reagan's heroism (they stayed in Hollywood making movies) instead of writing about McGovern's unit and McGovern.

Barnes Original has accounted for enough 5-shot, 100 yard, sub ¾ inch muzzleloading groups to pique my interest.
Killing dirt, wet newspaper, or even ballistic gelatin only tells us how well a bullet kills these substrates, not what performance on game is. In the case of ballistic gelatin, the lack of bones makes it obvious that it is inherently flawed when used as a direct indicator of terminal performance on game.
Even though the more conventional design of this bullet does not allow for the 100% weight retention of a Barnes MZ-Expander, and core separation could be a possibility, the astounding accuracy of this bullet and its superb flight characteristics make it the bullet that is coming out of my muzzle on the next hunt.

No, I'm saying that Barnes probably DID get a call, but there's no reason for him to remember it 16 years later because 1.) Moore was a nobody at the time, and 2.) Moore lies about the content of the call, to the extent of making it unrecognizable.
All Moore suggests is that Barnes "probably" saw the item in the Washington Times, amd therefore by his virtue of failing to act on it way back then, Moore tries to prove that Barnes lied ("Fred Barnes did not complain when I published the interview with him 16-years-ago.

For the May 31, 2004 issue of The Weekly Standard, Barnes (now a co-host of The Beltway Boys on the Fox News Channel) tried to set the record straight.
According to Moore, he had caught Barnes yelling about teenage ignorance of the classics on January 2, 1988, and had confronted him over it the next day, and the article from his old underground 'zine proved that the phone conversation did take place.
Since this altercation took place before Moore's first film made him a famous millionaire, it is highly unlikely that Barnes would recognize him at the time, unless he had heard of the rather obscure news of Moore's dismissal from Mother Jones magazine in 1986.

Barnes preferred to continue being snide, saying the UN should "bring in Japan & Brazil" on the SC & "drop France." He went into a France-bashing rant (e.g., "why are they there in the first place?" "It was a gift from the US" & "this country that did nothing to defeat the Nazis").
Barnes should think on that 270,000 civilians killed, and understand that is 90 WTC events.
So Barnes has to concede that France, with a population of 42M lost 3 times more soldiers per capita than the USA with a population of 129M.

 Barnes' Door Open - Who needs Ari Fleischer when we can read Fred Barnes each week? By Jonathan Chait
Last year (April 30, 2001), Barnes wrote a story pegged to Bush's budget explaining that the defining legacy of the Bush presidency was to reduce the size of government by 2.5 percent of the GDP.
It's like the welfare rolls." That doesn't sound like a "benign view of government." Nor does Daniels' argument, also faithfully recorded by Barnes at the time, that it was necessary to reduce spending in order to reduce the national debt and save the Social Security surplus.
Perhaps there is a philosophical consistency here that escapes me. Or maybe the White House is rallying the GOP apparatus to explain away the next three years of structural deficits.

But if you watched Special Report last night, you saw Fred Barnes—gesturing aggressively—insisting that Bush “consistently” said “exactly the opposite.” For the record, this is precisely the process Gore’s speech described, in which the Bush Admin—and a cowering media—conspire to deceive U.S. citizens.

To believe it, Barnes must have either been a technological idiot or awash in desperate, contemptible hatred for homosexuals.

Barnes said he didn't "scream bloody murder" when the book came out in 2001 because he didn't learn about the phony anecdote until it was brought to his attention by Alan Wolfe, who was writing a review of the book for the New Republic magazine.
Wolfe's quote, saying not a word of it was true, was sufficient, Barnes thought at the time.
