Hi Alison, Thanks for responding. Just to clarify, it seems both CJ and I have tried to find out if Media Lens have said anything negative about Vanessa on their website only. That was the result, which consisted of two pieces where ML has mentioned her. I am certainly aware of Vanessa's body of work, perhaps not in detail, but her pieces do regularly appear on TLN, and on the websites we frequent. As it happens, speaking for myself, I deeply admire her, as well as your good self, David and Mike. My admiration is not impacted by the fact that you guys are openly partisan on Syrian issues. So am I. It certainly does seem strange that ML have a blind spot where VB is concerned i.e. not commenting positively or linking to her work. It is as though they follow in footsteps of the MSM. We here in TLN have often commented that ML may be nervous about stepping out of line. After all, TLN was born after we all got kicked out from ML, although this could very well be that they couldn't administer the punters getting out of order and thus liable to facing the flack from the MSM : ). Unfortunately I could not follow your FB exchange to the end, since I don't do FB. Thus I was not able to get to the end of the message to find out if there was any reasoning behind ML not actively supporting VB and by extension, others. Take care now and have a safe trip! Best.
