Pilger is well known overseas and somewhat here, but definitely not a right winger in any conceivable stretch: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Pilger

Just think of what we could do in this country if the liberals, conservatives, and everyone in between would stop letting the elite pit us against each other and lead us by the nose from one puppet to the next. What kind of country could we have if we would educate ourselves, love and trust our neighbor, and help each other achieve the maximum personal liberty and empowerment. What if we stopped letting Madison Avenue make us feel inadequate and started living up to our potential.

Thanks for posting these links.

Pilger referred to the years following the secretive Columbia University days. I, too, wonder what he did at Business International.

Pilger's following quote (from the wiki link) is eerily reminiscent of BO's reaction to those in the media who question him, IMO.

"Secretive power loathes journalists who do their job, who push back screens, peer behind façades, lift rocks. Opprobrium from on high is their badge of honour."
