Respectfully disagree. His stalwart and ever-unpopular efforts from the Bush years down to the present to defend freedom of speech against the efforts of the security state to undermine it have been impressive. It is an ironic sign of the times that he was originally castigated as a leftist ideologue and is now deemed a right-wing nut by erstwhile fans.
As someone who lived years under a quasi-military dictatorship, requiring vigilance of one's environment before conducting frank political conversations, I will always cherish the freedom of speech guarantees in the U.S. and esteem the few remaining journalists who defend them.
