\nDennis Prager Radio Show<\/a> | Dennis Prager | Oct. 19, 2009<\/p>\n

On Monday, October 19, 2009, during the second hour of his nationally syndicated radio show, noted conservative Dennis Prager, mentioned the OrthodoxNet Blog post<\/a> on Anita Dunn’s praise of demonic communist dictator Mao Tse-Tung as one of her “favorite political philosophers.”<\/p>\n

Mr. Prager (while mistakenly calling our site “orthodoxy.net”) quoted our description of the video clip that Glenn Beck showcased on FoxNews and read on the air the video caption comments:<\/p>\n

Anita Dunn, the White House Communications Director<\/em>, admitted that one of favorite political Philosophers, one that she \u201cturns to the most\u201d, is Mao Tse-Tung<\/strong>, the demonic communist dictator<\/strong> responsible for the starvation, torture, and murder of 70 million Chinese.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here’s an excerpt of Dennis Prager’s comments and his reason for quoting the post from our site:<\/p>\n

“… they [OrthodoxNet Blog] give views from an Orthodox perspective, obviously that is from Christian Orthodox, Eastern Orthodox, and Judeo\/Christian perspective. And the only reason that I am noting this is because I want to read to you their description, as opposed to CNN’s description of Mao Tse-Tung. <\/p>\n

Underneath the video<\/a> it says: Anita Dunn, the White House Communications Director<\/em>, admitted that one of favorite political Philosophers, one that she \u201cturns to the most\u201d, is Mao Tse-Tung<\/strong>, the demonic communist dictator<\/strong> responsible for the starvation, torture, and murder of 70 million Chinese.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

After citing the caption, Mr. Prager goes on to say:<\/p>\n

“And that is why I found so much more moral clarity in the religious world than in the secular world. CNN vs. this Orthodox Christian website, that I was not even familiar with, how they describe Mao and how CNN describe Mao is in a nut shell why Dennis Prager is religious.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Earlier in the show Mr. Prager discussed the simplistic manner in which a CNN piece identified Mao Tse-Tung and his horrible legacy, and how CNN tried to excuse Anita Dunn’s embrace of Mao’s philosophy. He then contrasted CNN’s morally-neutral description of Mao with OrthodoxNet’s morally-clear description of Mao.<\/p>\n
