As a former subscriber to Ms. Magazine, I must say that I'm not much surprised that the magazine of 1960s feminism saw fit to reject the worlds most harmless ad.

Ms. Magazine is apparently only in favor of acknowledging women's achievements as long as they aren't Jooooze!

From the American Jewish Congress:

When Director of AJCongress' Commission for Women's Empowerment Harriet Kurlander tried to place the ad, she was told that publishing the ad "will set off a firestorm" and that "there are very strong opinions" on the subject - the subject presumably being whether or not one can say anything positive about Israel. Ms. Magazine publisher Eleanor Smeal failed to respond to a signed-for certified letter with a copy of the ad as well as numerous calls by Mr. Gordon over a period of weeks.

A Ms. Magazine representative, Susie Gilligan, whom the Ms. Magazine masthead lists under the publisher's office, told Ms. Kurlander that the magazine "would love to have an ad from you on women's empowerment, or reproductive freedom, but not on this." Ms. Gilligan failed to elaborate what "this" is.

"The only conclusion that one can reach from this behavior is that Ms. Magazine feels that an ad highlighting the accomplishments of three incredibly talented and dedicated women would offend their readership. Since there is nothing about the ad itself that is offensive, it is obviously the nationality of the women pictured that the management of Ms. fears their readership would find objectionable. For a publication that holds itself out to be in the forefront of the Women's Movement, this is nothing short of disgusting and despicable," stated Mr. Gordon.

Radio talker Rush Limbaugh apparently knew what they were all about when he jokingly referred to them as feminazis.

It's been quite a week for the American left -- first they reveal themselves to be bigots and now we see some anti-Semitism. Quite impressive.
