2 December 2004 @ 9:27PM >> Peter Beinart, a rather sensible liberal who also serves as the editor The New Republic, has a brilliant essay discussing the current state of the American left.

Not only do I think he’s largely correct on diagnosing the problem, I think he’s also right on the solution. If the left followed Beinart’s suggestions, I think it would once again be a credible force in American politics. But as long as America’s leftists continue down the Michael Moore and MoveOn road, they will have about as much political relevance as Lyndon LaRouche.

2 December 2004 >> Front Page Magazine reviews Brainwashing 101:

The past year has seen an explosion of political documentaries. But the single most interesting one has yet to find a commercial distributor. Evan Coyne Maloney’s “Brainwashing 101” employs the techniques which made such films as Supersize Me effective: cheeky commentary, smartly ironic editing, a self-deprecating onscreen persona and cleverly staged confrontations with soulless bureaucrats. In this case, the bureaucrats are leftist administrators at American colleges.

Brainwashing 101 can be viewed or downloaded for free on the AcademicBias.com website. The film is also available on DVD.
