thanks dennis. clearly, she cherry-picked. 

the branding of her targets as white supremacists, racists and fascists causes 
most of her trouble i think. i agree with amith that it sounded like earlier 
attacks from nutty pro-zionists, who repeatedly launched accusations of 
antisemitism against alexander cockburn. 

"the left" has a lingering problem and this is emblematic of what's eating it. 

however, i will agree that counting articles can raise legitimate questions, 
just not this hysteria.

CP co-editor Joshua Frank replies on my Facebook page - 

We publish 100 articles a week, she's singling out 3 writers at most, which 
we publish on occasion - of course not all of their stuff. For instance, we 
don't run PCR's crazy 9/11 truth theories. But I'm sure that the "editorial 
collective" (Jeff and myself) has an agenda to team up with the far-right. 
Very obvious. Talk about conspiracy theories.
