Fair criticisms, but I still think the wuswus (as and a friend and I call it since it's probably the only acronym in history harder to pronounce than the name it stands for) does some excellent work. They've been at the forefront of issues like Julian Assange's persecution, internet/social media censorship, Syria, Russiagate, etc. And with a lot of solid analysis. I think they've been terrible on the Jan 6 riots, but overall, a hundred times better than sites like the Intercept, Democracy Now, or Jacobin. Re Dore, I agree, but to his credit, if White objected to being attacked in absentia and asked to come back on, he would invite him. I wish he would stop abusing the term "left" to refer to CNN or Joe Biden...probably a bit of pandering to his more right wing audience. |
