Reader comment on item: Debating Press TV - And Much More

Submitted by randy (United States), May 6, 2015 at 20:29

I am still enough of a liberal to object to labeling those wingnuts as 'lefties.' I suggest they are part of the wraparound extreme, where the loony left meets its mirror image from the right to form a Hitler-Stalin Pact (a la Alex Jones) that, perhaps inevitably, once again finds Jews to be behind it all. And the show performs a service in revealing just how rooted is anti-Semitism in private and state-run media outlets thruout the Muslim world. How interesting that Barrett parries Pipes' question by labeling American Muslims as "cowardly" and only concerned w/ making it in the USA. And also interesting how this show begins & ends w/ title sequences that, far as I can see, portray nothing but war, shooting and violent chaos. Guess that's what it takes to be "news."
