Howard Zinn
I’ve always had mixed feelings about Howard Zinn, but any way you slice it it sucks that he was the Brad Renfro to Salinger’s Heath Ledger, you know? If Salinger hadn’t bit it the same day Zinn’s death might have been an occasion for some discussion of old school liberal ideas. But no. Maybe Zinn should have walled himself off for like 5 decades and refused to speak to anybody except an occasional piece of underage poon.
