The Grayzone Caused ‘Biggest PR Fiasco in History’ for US Govt Regime Change Arm, Leaked Emails Reveal
Max Blumenthal: While the NED sponsors coup plotters from Venezuela to Iran, our investigation exposes the crisis that has the leaders of the regime change arm of the US gov't in an institutional meltdown.
A summary of what you'll find in the leaked NED emails obtained by The Grayzone:
Our publication of an embarrassing phone conversation with a NED VP triggered an unprecedented PR crisis. Following the call, the Endowment's founding president, Carl Gershman, privately admitted the “fiasco” exposed major “problems beneath the polished surface."
Senior NED management is currently in disarray, with two high-ranking staffers fired due to their handling of the call, while Gershman is isolated and marginalized by those who took his place.
What began as a bitter dispute over the decision to engage with The Grayzone ultimately devolved into a full-fledged culture war that pitted the group’s neocon founders against its more liberal recent hires, derided by the neocon old guard as “woke flakes” obsessed with “microaggressions,” the LGBTQIA+ agenda and compulsory DEI trainings.
One of the fired NED staffers, neocon Michael Allen, accused his progressive boss of a “clear campaign of harassment, marginalization and victimization,” and fretted over her allowing NED staff to attend pro-Palestine rallies. He was so incensed by his dismissal that he threatened to reveal the details of his firing to the “many mailing lists of key decision-makers and opinion-formers that I have built and retained over the years” if he did not receive a substantial settlement.
