Washington Times again prints anti-Israel ad
by Eric Fingerhut
Staff Writer
The vice president and general manager of The Washington Times says he will review how an advertisement describing Israel as "an official anti-Christianity nation" was printed in the newspaper last week.
After being read portions of the ad text over the phone on Friday, Richard Amberg Jr. said that language from the March 28 advertisement "gets real close to the line" of violating the paper's advertising policy, which does not allow ads that are false or that denigrate religions.
"There is a process" to review controversial ads, but "I was not here" and did not review this one, said Amberg. He said his initial recollection was that the ad was "related to Zionism and not the Jewish faith."
