[lbo-talk] horse's mouth

[Doug Henwood]

Yeah, and you'd think a retired English professor with Marxist 
politics might be interested in the relations of discourse and power 
- how the powerful present themselves, directly or through their 
spokespersons, and how the media interpret what they hear. But when 
your eyes are on bigger forces, I guess press conferences are just 
distracting trivia.
