An extreme rightwing magazine was ordered Tuesday to publish a statement denouncing racism and anti-Semitism after a Paris court found it had maligned the Jewish community and placed it in jeopardy.
The magazine, Sock of the Month, published a banner headline on its front cover asking “Have The Jews Pushed Us Into The (Gulf) War?”
Judge Huguette Le Foyer de Costil ruled that although the publication appended a question mark to its cover headline, it “cast doubts upon the entire Jewish community, which is moreover pointed to as a possible source of trouble and runs a (security) risk as such.”
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
