Syndicated Creators Among Liberals Dissed in Book

Posted
By: E&P Staff Several liberal syndicated creators are featured in "100 People Who Are Screwing Up America," the new book by conservative "Bias" author Bernard Goldberg.

According to MyDD.com, Goldberg's list includes columnist Paul Krugman of The New York Times and New York Times News Service (8th), editorial cartoonist Ted Rall of Universal Press Syndicate (15th), editorial cartoonist Jeff Danziger of the Cartoonists & Writers Syndicate and New York Times Syndicate (35th), and "The Boondocks" creator Aaron McGruder of Universal (88th).

Also ranked are syndicated creators better known for other work. They include Tribune Media Services columnist Jesse Jackson (4th) and King Features Syndicate columnist Dan Rather (12th).

Goldberg's list includes only a few conservatives, such as Enron's Ken Lay.

Rall, writing in his blog, said: "Right-wingers love their Nixon-style enemies lists! When I was a kid, I used to be jealous of the brave, patriotic Americans who made Nixon's list. Now here I am."
