Gotta "love" Counterpunch running a Noam Chomsky apologist over the Epstein files all while ignoring Chomsky is a lifelong member of the left hand of the duopoly who hates the Green Party and doesn't even talk about parties to his left.
This all happened LONG before his stroke but long AFTER Epstein's 2008 conviction. The Guardian has more.
And, the being in the tank for the duopoly has been ardent.
Meanwhile, yeah, I still hold a bit of a grudge that Counterpunch never ran my Jim Stiles snark, here on Substack. St. Clair may have forgotten. Or he didn't like it. Perhaps like him at High Country News, I didn't fit the site's editorial needs.
On the duopoly and other issues?
Chomsky signed that infamous Harper's letter.
Chomsky signed another letter, just months earlier, along with other pseudoleftists, asking Howie Hawkins not to run for the presidency on the Green Party ticket.
Chomsky was a sheepdogger long before.
Is it any wonder I dropped Counterpunch from my blogroll, after it sheepdogged for both him, and sheepdogger-redux Ralph Nader? (St. Clair is still, I think, butthurt over Nader vs GP 2004. The GP wasn't totally in the right, but it was no more wrong than Nader, who is himself a pseudoleftist.)
