i think it's very important for americans in particular to read chomsky because you've grown up in the largest media culture in the world ...
everyone else reads him...and frankly that's why we're weary of american culture...and i think americans who read him are as well.
and he's not an anti-semite...it's a convinient media tool used by american media to try and not get people to read his books...
he is fighting for the freedom of humanity and mostly americans...and if you aren't going to read him because he's been called anti-semite...you're very superficial and should maybe read him to find out for yourself...
my view would be that if you're not reading chomsky you're anti-american...and i think it's funny that that's been changed into he's anti-semite...
read his work on language, and media cohersion...and then criticise him...it's ridiculous...
this from people in a country who are putting a stranglehold on the world and pushing around 3rd world countries half way around the globe...in the name of an economy that's depended on war since FDR...
c'mon what's worse? believing a man that's reputed to be an anti-semite, but there is no real proof...or believing your own govt?

nothing against anyone on here or anything said...i just can't believe that people don't want to dive into chomsky for what he can teach...we don't discount picasso cause he was a wanna be communist and a bigamist (all of which we can prove)...so why bite on chomsky?
sorry...i just feel that he is one of the best researchers in the world...read boorstin, or saul, or eco...and then open chomsky...and it's a different world of analytical prowess.
