...Since it prints no criticism and all Koreans read Soviet-fashion between the lines, Seoul can do this simply by printing photographs of a smiling Harvard President visiting Seoul officials, as President Bok is about to do. Harvard seems not to have armed itself against this: no attempt to counteract the public statements about the University in the March 1975 articles has ever been made. It is sad that famous and respected prefessors who, in their youth, sought to protect the persecuted intellectuals of China from Kuomintang terror, now, in later years, show little reservation about appearing to side with...

Majority Report, a biweekly newspaper published in New York City, doesn't have the listings of events around here, but it talks about women, minorities, politics (not just Democratic and Republican) and workers and makes an effort to counteract the distortions in mainstream media coverage of these topics that we are bombarded with incessantly...
