New McCarthyism ahead, warns Independent Jewish Voices

I have a new story up on the national page of Xtra.ca today, which was pretty difficult to write. Aside from there being tonnes of material, between three press events and another interview, plus the video in the piece, it was difficult weeding through to get to the heart of the story - the issue of free speech - without getting bogged down in what sounds like conspiracy theories or the aforementioned charges of anti-Semitism. Not an easy line to tread. In the end, however, the piece got filed, my editor was happy, and it seems to have worked out.
