| My interest in assessing the honesty of publications by David Horowitz began around May 2005, when I came across a book by him titled, The Anti-Chomsky Reader. When I skimmed through it I immediately saw much evidence of lying, so I decided to make a thorough check of the accuracy of his quotings of in-print sources. It is important to note that this book gives no source information at all around half the time that it attributes a quote or a way of thinking to Chomsky or someone else. The book has a total of 343 notes, yet when I sampled a random ten percent (19 pages) of all this book's 191 pages that have some main-text on them, I found 31 instances of words in quotes (or characterizations of ways of thinking) with no source information at all given. This implies that the entire book has around 310 instances of these unsourced claims, which is almost as many as the sourced claims! |
