Description
CHARACTER ASSASSINS is a brief history of the consequences of bearing
false witness. It tells how toxic talk has led to shunning, witch hunts,
persecuti ons, false prosecuti ons, executi ons, pogroms, famines, wars and
genocides. From small acorns great oaks grow, and from small lies come
poisonous fruits: ruined reputati ons, divided neighborhoods, class hatreds,
clan violence, ethnic cleansings and blood libels, preludes to the twenti eth
centurys worst horrors. The book criti cally examines various contemporary
events. It details intellectual rot and corrupti on in Massachusett s federal and
state courts, prosecutors offi ces and law schools. It pinpoints deep seated
biases, spin and false reporti ng in Bostons newspapers and radio talks shows.
It proves Howie Carrs books are litt ered with falsehoods. It singles out Carr
and Dershowitz as examples of chronic character assassins.
Lies, ruin, disease,
Into wounds like these,
Let the truth sti ng!
