MY SAY: WHAT ARE THEY THINKING AT AMERICAN THINKER?

Posted By on August 13th, 2013

I like and often post from American Thinker…but these past few days have set me to thinking…They have joined the jeremiad against Diana West. Two efforts are actually risible- by authors who have not read the book!!!!

Exhibit A:

CLARICE FELDMAN WEIGHS IN ON DIANA WEST WITHOUT HAVING READ THE BOOK!!!! SEE NOTE PLEASE

http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/08/demagogic_writers_and_the_people_who_love_them.html

All Feldman does is repeat the screeds of Radosh and Herf…..hhmmmmm……

“This week I’m making an exception in highlighting the imbroglio between Ron Radosh, an historian whose knowledge of the American Communist party and the McCarthy era is unmatched, and Diana West, author of American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on our Nation’s Character. I’m doing so, not to attack West whose work I have not read, but to point out the dangers of demagogic writers — everywhere on the political spectrum and the emotional bonds their fans form with them. ”

ANOTHER “REVIEW” OF DIANA WEST BY RON CAPSHAW-SOMEONE WHO HAS NOT READ THE BOOK !!!!

“I haven’t read West (I do intend to), but from the scuttlebutt and reviews circulating the internet, it is fairly apparent that she is a reckless historian of the McCarthy school of history. This, Ron Radosh is not. Unlike the conspiratorial school, populated on the left by Oliver Stone, and onthe right by West, Radosh dares to take a complex view of history. He is grown up enough to realize that both Hiss was guilty and McCarthy was a reckless demagogue; that the blacklist was wrong and that the Hollywood Ten were selective civil libertarians.”

More egregious, however is the following by raging Ron Radosh where it is obvious that he got an advance copy of Diana West’s submitted rebuttal. That’s really unsavory.

RON RADOSH: HISTORY AS IDEOLOGY…..ANOTHER OSESSIVE ATTACK ON DIANA WEST…..SEE NOTE PLEASE

Diana West submitted a rebuttal of false claims against her by Radosh to American Thinker, but instead of publishing them AT ran this by Ron Radosh which shows in his words that he saw her column:

“Now let me turn to some of Diana West’s key assertions regarding World War II, which she argues in the new piece she is writing for this site I do not really effectively challenge.”

And by the way…..AT has not posted West’s rebuttal……rsk
