The only significant newspaper coverage of this was here.
Even if the programme did repeat the old, calumnious generalisations about the America First Committee of Gerald Ford, of Norman Thomas (anti-Communist campaigner to build a Farm-Labor party), of Sargent Shriver (Peace Corps and Special Olympics founder, McGovern running mate, and pro-life Catholic), and of Shriver's future brother-in-law, John F Kennedy.
Alex Brummer, Peter Hitchens, Stephen Glover, Peter McKay and Andrew Alexander, plus fairly regular pieces by Geoffrey Wheatcroft: the Mail titles have become crucial to the most welcome resurgence the atavistic Tory dislike of international capital, corporate megalomania, American hegemony, Israeli interference, and wars, which is intimately bound up with the most welcome resurgence of the atavistic Labour dislike of the EU.
Now, where is the political party to take advantage of these trends? Ed Miliband, over to you.
