Fake Media Critic?

Interested in having your eyes opened?  Go to http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/POLITICS/JFK/postphotos.html.

Expand the photograph at “The Assassin’s View.” Notice the name of the writer of the thoroughly dishonest article, which is clearly readable when you blow the photo up.

Now go to http://www.amazon.com and search the book titles for The Media Monopoly. The author of this book was the Dean Emeritus of the School of Journalism of The University of California at Berkeley and his book has gone through many editions. It is a limited hangout, confession-and-avoidance book about the sins of American journalism. Some people think it is the last word on the corruption of America’s news media. It is not. It is barely the first word. This man has apparently been in the deception business for quite a long time. He reminds me of Hugh Aynesworth, q.v. my article on Aynesworth and The Washington Times at Pruden…  

But, then, he did work for quite a while at The Washington Post. “He has been hailed for his ethical standards and has been described by Robert W. McChesney as one of the finest journalists of the 20th century.”  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Bagdikian

Is McChesney unaware or the pedigree of Ben Haig Bagdikian, or have we stumbled onto the trail of the fake left?
