So explain why William Shawcross, who wrote a great book, "Sideshow, " on Kissinger, Nixon and the savage, "secret, " bombing of cambodia in the early 70's, in the yrs. previous to the Khmer Rouge seizing power, is so critical of Noam on the KR???

See the Sophal Ear thesis I posted the first chapter and URL of. Another chapter (#3, I think) goes into depth on the excahnged between Noam and Shawcross in the NYRB.

Another cite: Michael Kazin in Socialist Review, late 70's (think it was in the special double issue on U.S. politics that contained other pieces by such as Barbara Ehrenreich, David Plotke and some Cineaste editors on Vietnam War films) critiqued the, "Propaganda Model, " of Noam C. and Ed Herman.
