Dear All --
That's a very unfair set of generalizations about the US press. Alan Riding's
piece in the NYTimes was a very nuanced and fair piece. It is far from
adopting the State Dept.'s propaganda line on the Cultural Diversity Convention.
George Will's piece is indeed predictable propaganda, but he's a columnist and is
close politically to those putting out the line.
I think if you parse who is writing what, you will find that it is as
diversified as the press and as the the US political scene. One shouldn't fall into
the trap of mimicking one's adversaries, by saying the exact opposite of what
they say.
Best, Rony Koven
