Barre Seid updates

Anyone with a lingering interest in Barre Seid's shenanigans will want to check out these articles regarding his funding of distribution of the anti-Muslim Obsession DVD in 2008.
1. The breakthrough article by Justin Elliott on Salon.com
2. Expert dissection by Richard Silverstein of the lies and dissemblings involved
3. Little bit o' Shimer-focused analysis by yours truly

Personally, what really ticks me off about this is how little Seid was willing to put into Shimer by comparison. Apparently education comes a distant second to wingnut demagoguery for him.

But then, given the people he chose to be his stooges on the Board of Trustees, I suppose that shouldn't come as a great surprise.
