It was his idea back in the early 70s to create the GOP Noise Machine to infiltrate the public discourse with wingnut ideas. It worked, as this little revelation from a former WaPo reporter shows:
Goodman, who spent a decade at The Washington Post before his three years at the Times, says he will still rely on facts and not engage in "ranting." And while he was happy at the newspaper, he says, he found he was engaged in "almost a process of laundering my own views, through the tried-and-true technique of dinging someone at some think tank to say what you want to tell the reader."
This is why Heritage & Cato are so useful to the gasbags.

Cancel my potential vote, the guy's a sellout loser, like most phony American "right-wing" charlatans.
