New Video of Wright Surfaces
Rev Jeremiah Wright (introduced by Robert McChesney) at Monthly Review's 60th Anniversary from Monthly Review on Vimeo.
(Accuracy in Media) - A new video of Jeremiah Wright has surfaced, showing Barack Obama's pastor of 20 years praising Marxism and discussing his ties to communists in El Salvador and Nicaragua and the Libyan government. Equally important, Wright is being introduced in the video by Robert W. McChesney, co-founder of Free Press, an organization which has come under scrutiny for its links to the Obama Administration and dedication to the transformation and control of the private media in the U.S.
In an article in the socialist Monthly Review, "Journalism, Democracy, and Class Struggle," McChesney declared, "Our job is to make media reform part of our broader struggle for democracy, social justice, and, dare we say it, socialism."
In the video, which captures Wright's appearance at a September 17, 2009, anniversary celebration of Monthly Review, Wright said that while the "corporate media" provide a "binary lens" of the world, in such terms as "communist versus Christian," Monthly Review offers what it calls "no-nonsense Marxism."

From 'Townhall.com':
"The more we understand Obama's character, the more his friendship with Rev. Wright makes sense. Our parents knew that we become who we surround ourselves with. Unfortunately -- and as I have said before -- in our personal lives we have an amazing ability to spot fakes, phonies, and degenerates (not to mention, correlating the relevance of loser friends with the one who chose them), but when it comes to choosing a President, we lose that ability. Let's hope America has made the connection by 2012."
