Saint Noam comes to town

Not unintentionally, I missed yesterday's on air celebrations of 'Bring a Noam Chomsky to work day' on Eamonn Dunphy's show. I haven't yet found any blog report on the big event. Chomsky, "perhaps the world's best known liberal intellectual", was in town to tell a gathering of his disciples that the US is a "leading terrorist state". Yet, he continues to live there. He is fearless; no - he's a martyr.
