Angelina Jolie Pens ‘Economist’ Article

Angelina Jolie has penned an article for The Economist, a London-based weekly international news and business publication.

According to Britain’s The Guardian, Angie’s article will be published tomorrow in the Economist’s annual spin-off issue, The World in 2008. Angie’s piece covers the “accountability for the atrocities in Darfur” and her photo byline describes her as a “goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.”

Angelina Jolie: Hollywood actress, UN goodwill ambassador, mother-of-four and now author for The Economist!

UPDATE: Here are some quotes:

– “Accountability is perhaps the only force powerful enough to break the cycle of violence and retribution that marks so many conflicts.”
– “I hope that the Sudanese government will hand over the government minister and the Janjaweed militia leader who have been indicted for war crimes (by the International Criminal Court in The Hague), and that the teenager I met in Chad will get the trial he seeks.”
– “I hope that those responsible for the atrocities in Darfur will be held to account, not only for that young man’s sake, but for the world’s.”

Has anyone noticed that the attacks on Angie at JJB are normally vicious on Mondays and Tuesdays just before tabloids come out.

Doesn’t bother me at all. I don’t think it’s really about Angie, it’s about riling the JP fans over there. Also, today nothing they write can bother me because Angie writing for The Economist has me all happy. :)

Wow! People must have gotten quite a scolding from some of you about the gum and pants because their article about Angie’s piece in the Economist was one of the first things I saw today. Good job!

=====================================================

People dropped the ball and I had to ask them if gum on the shoe and supposedly split pants were truly news worthy. I asked why they didn’t carry the story about Angelina receiving the Freedom Award? And why it wasn’t deed news worthy?

When Times had that crappy writeup on Angie earlier this year, I did the same. It’s our job to make the so-called legitimate news outlet step up to the plate and do the right thing, IMO.

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT HER TO SAY? HE’S THE BIGGEST WUSS I’VE EVER MET? C’MON, THAT WOULD BE MEAN AND ANGIE AINT MEAN.

Here we go, again!

Yo ’styless’—you could never be ‘cool’ so give it up honey…. You are soooo miserable and there is nothing you can do about it ….ROTFLMAO…. They keep on loving and caring and accomplishing and you idol is doig WHAT???????

118- Mr and Mrs Smith-
ROTFLMAO! OMG…:) :D :)

Angie must be pretty stupid if she’s with the biggest wuss.

JUST REMEMBER WHEN YOU LOOK AT RED CARPET PIX OF ANGIE HANGING ON BRAD SHE DID THE SAME WITH HER EX HUSBAND BUT WITH MORE PASSION. SHE IS A PRETTY DAMN GOOD ACTRESS.

I’ve been a big fan of The Economist for years. Never has a journal provided more comprehensive and intelligent coverage of world events, including unique perspectives. Whenever it came into the office, I would immediately monopolize each issue. As an AJ fan, I was THRILLED to hear they are publishing one of her articles. It is an internationally-recognized, widely resepected journal, and her inclusion in it is indicative of her INTERNATIONAL REPUTATION, not what some low-brow rag magazines and radio djs think of her.

Suck on it, haters. Sucks to be you.

Now she is writing? WOW! She is amazing. I am so excited!!

WRONG!, Sherfcukinglock! I never change my handle…it’s personal like that…aiight? Ask jared.
