The Truth About Kos (DailyKos): Welcome, CounterPunch.Org Readers!

I have noticed over the last twenty-four hours that perhaps one hundred CounterPunch.Org readers have come directly from the homepage of CounterPunch to an article I authored and posted here, entitled, CIA-Trained Blogger Disbursing Money to "Progressives"

I am very happy that others are as concerned as I am that the whitosphere and the afrosphere have been infiltrated, but I cannot seem to figure out HOW the CounterPunch readers are finding this particular article. Can anyone explain it to me. (I have included CounterPunch in the list of blogs and websites that have referenced the Truth About Kos because it's clear that, for whatever reason and at whatever time, CounterPunch must logically have referenced the article in question.)

I have searched at the homepage of CounterPunch for a link to this article, but I can't find one. I have googled the article to see if it has been mentioned in conjunction with CounterPunch, but I can't see that it has. So, I am at a loss as to how CounterPunch readers are finding this article, with about a hundred reading the article in one 24-hour period.

Any information you can provide to help resolve this fortuitous mystery will be greatly appreciated.

If a Link Here Doesn't Work . . .

If a link doesn't work, be patient. Look for an updated link in the articles below, use the search function in the top left, and/or look to this list of all but one of the articles written by Markos C. A. Moulitsas Zúñiga (MAMZ) when he was at Northern Illinois University (NIU), writing extreme right-wing letters to the editor. Interestingly, the one known missing article still is not in the archives although it was faxed to me by Northern Star staff and republished here. That article was the first in a series of five articles about "racism", four of which were assigned tasks and described the "racism" and religious persecution problems on campus based on interviews.

In the fifth article, which was not commissioned, MAMZ declared that, having completed the obligatory four articles, the fifth article would announced his intention to withdraw again into "detached selfishness", grateful that he was not one of "them", "whose skin color or religious persuassion (sic) made them the target of bigotry and discrimination. They would never be able to escape who they were."

This is MAMZ announcement that he is NOT a Latino, but is a white man, and he underlines this today by insisting that it is improper to address him using his mother's Latino name, "Zúñiga".

In looking for the MAMZ's student newspaper articles, remember that the NIU student newspaper, the Northern Star, has changed the Internet addresses of these articles three times [now four times as of 9/2010] in last 30 months, making all old links obsolete and sometimes making all of the articles temporarily unavailable.

Atty. Francis L. Holland in the Media

Washington Post quotes
Francis L. Holland slamming DNCC for all-white state blogs corps:
"Francis L. Holland, one of the vocal black bloggers, sent e-mails to DNC officials asking that 15 black-operated blogs be added to the State Corps. "There is nothing 'Democratic' about an all-white Democratic National Convention floor blogging corps," he wrote in an e-mail. Holland is also asking for the inclusion of 15 Latino-operated blogs."
Slate.com quotes Francis L. Holland regarding John Edwards' decision to endorse Senator Barack Obama for President:
"Or, as Obama supporter Francis L. Holland puts it: "So, it shows tremendous courage, foresight and solidarity that Edwards has endorsed Obama after the media declared Hillary's campaign to be as good as dead, right? Oh, well! Better late than never!"
BlackEnterprise.Com quotes Francis L. Holland:
"Of the blogs covering the convention, black blogs will be 7.2% of the blogs present,” says Francis L. Holland of the Afrosphere Action Coalition. According to Holland, many states with a strong black Democratic presence and population are either underrepresented or not represented at all, even though black bloggers from these states did apply. “The state of Tennessee, which often has over 25% blacks among its Democratic primary voters, will not have a single black blogger at the Democratic National Convention, for example. The District of Columbia, which is 60% black, will be left out. Louisiana, which is 32.4% black, will be left out. Illinois, the presidential nominee’s home state, which is 15% black, will be left out.”
Pew Project for Excellence in Journalism cites Francis L. Holland:

In 2008, the Democratic "party came under fire from African American bloggers. Francis L. Holland of the Afrosphere Action Coalition, complained to Black Enterprise magazine that black blogs only made up slightly more than 7% of the bloggers credentialed for the convention."
Francis L. Holland Blog in the
Washington Post:
"We are tired of Hillary Clinton telling America that we are less than American simply because we refuse to vote for her," said Francis L. Holland, an African American blogger." Ironically, the Clintons embraced us, and even embraced Pastor Jeremiah Wright for support during their impeachment scandal." Holland was speaking of the congressional trial that followed former president Bill Clinton's liaison with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. "She has forfeited the black vote for the foreseeable future with her color aroused appeals."
Francis L. Holland Blog in Dallas Morning News:
“November’s voter turnout depends on August’s blogger outreach,” said Mr. Holland of the Afrosphere Action Coalition., a member of a national and international black bloggers’ coalition called “The AfroSpear.” “Blogs address constituencies, and it simply is not possible for blogs that are all-white to effectively reach diverse Democratic constituencies.”
Francis L. Holland Blog in Black Enterprise Magazine:
"Of the blogs covering the convention, black blogs will be 7.2% of the blogs present," says Francis L. Holland of the Afrosphere Action Coalition. According to Holland, many states with a strong black Democratic presence and population are either underrepresented or not represented at all, even though black bloggers from these states did apply. “The state of Tennessee, which often has over 25% blacks among its Democratic primary voters, will not have a single black blogger at the Democratic National Convention, for example. The District of Columbia, which is 60% black, will be left out. Louisiana, which is 32.4% black, will be left out. Illinois, the presidential nominee's home state, which is 15% black, will be left out."
Pacifica Radio's Election Unspun June 23: Black Bloggers and Black Power, interviews Francis L. Holland:

"Francis Holland is a blogger from Afrospear, a national group of bloggers that advocates for African-Americans. When he looked at the list of State Bloggers, he saw no black blogs among them. Holland explains that the process the Democratic Convention planners used to choose the State Blogger Corps was bound to lead to this result. And he argues that the Democratic Party can scarcely afford to alienate black voters in this election year." (The original link no longer works, which is becoming a growing documentation problem on the Internet.)
The American Prospect quoted Francis L. Holland explaining why Blacks and women would not support John Edwards in 2008:
"Electing Edwards to challenge the status quo is like supporting a queen to challenge the monarchy or integrating an all-white club by adding more all-white club members. It is possible that electing yet another white man to the Presidency will end the poverty of the historically disenfranchised, with John Edwards serving as a "pass through" for those who have historically been disincluded legally and by custom. But this is a very convoluted way of achieving what could be achieved much more directly by electing Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. ..."
Huffington Post published Francis L. Holland's articles.

Tokyo Shemp said...: I can only think of one explanation. As I wrote at the DFQ2 blogspot, I couldn't find any link from Counterpunch to your blog. Thus, I theorise that 100 disinfo writers were having some sort of conference. They were at Counterpunch. Then they were directed to go to your specific blog entry. Have you run any kind of check on the ip addresses? Hey, is there a way to get in contact with you by private email? I would like to get in touch with you in private concerning things of a personal nature. I'm looking for some advice. Thanks for your time and consideration. Take care.; July 7, 2009 at 8:14 PM

Tokyo Shemp said...: Thanks Francis. I do advise you to delete the spam posts. I've noticed them sometimes on the blog. Take care.; July 11, 2009 at 11:49 AM
Francis Holland said...: Socrates:

I don't know how to delete the spam posts without deleting all of the comments. Instead, I set the comments posting to require reading and typing some letters in - that annoying process you find at so many other blogs and websites.

That should fix the problem for the future.; July 11, 2009 at 12:56 PM
