They've always been fifth columnists for the Right. Back in the 1980s they were always supporting the death squads in Central America and added insult to injury by claiming the murder of nuns is a "liberal" position. The New Republic-AN licks its chops at any opportunity to egg on the murder of brown people, or to smear and harass those who might not want to join in.
This goes beyond the New Republic-AN. The MSM goes out of its way to promote these shysters, even though they are (a) wrong and (b) work for a magazine with a puny readership. The Nation. has MUCH bigger circulation and actually gets it right when it comes to political issues. But aside from Katrina Vanden Heuvel, how many of writers from The Nation. are regulars on news/talk shows? How about Mother Jones? Harpers?
The New Republic-AN is an open sewer of sadism, bigotry and dishonesty, yet news and opinion shows can't wait to plunge right in.
