I've just been informed (by someone who wants to remain anonymous) that Barbara Epstein resigned from the board of MR because of the nonsense that Yoshie has been posting to MRZine about Iran. When she made her complaints known to the board, they made it clear that they supported Yoshie's work, so Epstein felt that she had no choice but to quit. She's not interested in campaigning against what she still regards as a venerable institution, but she feels that Yoshie's position on Iran has so discredited the organization that she couldn't abide a formal association anymore.
