This is what Ray wrote at the time: “It is extremely telling that Sy could not find anyone in this country to publish this investigative piece so embarrassing to the powers that be (as well as to lazy journalists). Like Mearsheimer and Walt when they did their major piece on the Israel Lobby, Sy had to go to the London Review of Books.”
Let’s face it: Investigative journalists – the fewof them still left – are an endangered species. Look for the media to do their best to ignore Hersh’s story, as they did with Part One on Dec. 8.
In vivid contrast, Robert Parry of consortiumnews posted this story within an hour or two of when the Hersh article appeared online.
