Anyone catch his presentation promoting his latest book called Hoodwinked? It was very interesting.

How Intellectual Hucksters Have Hijacked American Culture
Jack Cashill could not believe his good luck when pseudo-Indian and fabricator par excellence, Ward Churchill, first made the news. Cashill had been looking for a handy way to personify intellectual fraud in all its subversive, self-loathing glory, and there stood Colorado University’s Professor Churchill. Churchill, alas, is the iceberg’s proverbial tip.
For a century, “progressive” writers and filmmakers—multiculturalists like Churchill and Alex Haley, sexual revolutionaries like Kinsey and Margaret Mead, quasi-Marxists like Noam Chomsky and Michael Moore, and radical naturalists like Paul Ehrlich and Rachel Carson—have been using falsehood and fraud as primary weapons in their assault on traditional American culture.
For years, an unconnected squad of literary detectives, anthropologists, scientists, and historians has been picking off the frauds and their enablers one by one. Taken together, the work of these critics is devastating. Jack Cashill’s Hoodwinked synthesizes their dogged research and reveals the depth and breadth of the corruption at the very foundation of contemporary intellectual culture.
