Splintered Sunrise makes very good points in his excellent post about how the left can sharpen up its act in getting the message across in the media especially during the past week and the storming of the flotilla.
We come up again and again against a media machine that stifles opposition along with biased reporting (though maintaining it is isn’t biased and very much ‘impartial’). And these are the times the left needs to utilise experienced comrades such as Anna Chen, insightful and knowledgeable with a proven track record in dealing with the media.
I think Splinty correctly argues the points succinctly and powerfully.

The event description:
“London Heathrow Airport – 11am Sunday 6 June 2010: Peace activists returned from the Middle East having been aboard the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. We witnessed their return and heard their message. We heard extensively from Osama Qashoo, an award-winning documentary film maker, who described events aboard the Mavi Marmara, and heard his calls for further international action.”
Many thanks,
