Moynihan And The Sweedish Think Tank Timbro.

Looking eerily like K.D. Lang, Pye in the Face reader and friend Michael Moynihan held court recently at a Think Tank Timbro forum on the sad state of Swedish journalism. Mike is a Libertarian living in Sweden and began publishing his own conservative newspaper, The Spectator, back in April. The aim of which is to provide an alternative to the country’s current flagrant liberal media spin – and the paper has recently exposed examples of plagarism amongst some of Sweden’s more prominent political columnists.

To say that Mike’s paper has been getting a lot of attention in Swedish journalism and political circles would be putting it mildly. “The paper comes out April 1st and my apartment should be on fire April 2nd.” The perception of a Libertarian in Sweden can be compared to a fully-regailed Klansman at a Jay-Z concert, so I applaud him for sticking up for his beliefs and for putting a remarkable dent in Sweden’s former anti -U.S. comfort zone. Shake ’em up, Mike.
