Cockburn Sums Up: an autobiography by Claud Cockburn.

I've never heard of Claude Cockburn before, and I'm not very surprised: I learn from this autobiography that he was a Communist and journalist for the Daily Worker, which would have removed him from my world. He ran a Samizdat press in London before WWII. He later went to live in Ireland and worked freelance.

Newspapers are only useful as long as they don't pretend to give an onbjective opinion.

Recommended to everybody who hate communists.
