One of our most popular series here at Everything Croton.....and now more follow-up ARTICLES....
First up, one of our local authors recently had the pleasure of seeing John Cleese--and his daughter Camilla---in COMEDY WITH THE CLEESE'S. Let it suffice to say that we are all strongly encouraged not to miss the anti-woke (and very funny) Cleeses if they come to our neck of the woods! Here's more of the fabulous John Cleese at https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=870312213749790

The New York Times, Washington Post and NBC News all issued retractions Saturday for their coverage of Rudy Giuliani following a raid of his Manhattan apartment by the FBI. The Times appended their correction to a story about the role Giuliani may have played in the 2019 recall of ambassador Marie L. Yovanovitch and whether he received a warning from the FBI about Russian disinformation. “An earlier version of this article misstated whether Rudolph W. Giuliani received a formal warning from the F.B.I. about Russian disinformation. Mr. Giuliani did not receive such a so-called defensive briefing,” The Times wrote Saturday in a note attached to the piece.
The Washington Post’s correction, on a story about prominent Americans being targeted by Russian disinformation, was similar. And NBC....well here's the entire article at https://nypost.com/2021/05/01/new-york-times-wapo-nbc-forced-to-retract-false-claims-about-giuliani/

JOE HILDEBRAND.... The thing about the mob is that it comes for us all.
Even the most dogmatic and ideologically pure comrade will eventually fall foul of the latest invisible rule book and be burnt at the stake without ever knowing precisely what they have done wrong.
Thus we have seen in recent times several high-profile torchbearers of the left cry cancel culture or become deathbed converts to the cause of free speech. A few of us got here earlier.
Author J.K. Rowling has been subjected to actual book-burnings for daring to express her views on gender and academic Richard Dawkins has had an award revoked for daring to even ask a question about gender.
Now philosopher Peter Singer is so impassioned about resisting cancel culture that he has founded an academic journal in which fearless champions of free speech can boldly express their views behind the cloak of anonymity. READ MORE AT https://www.news.com.au/the-team/joe-hildebrand
