How many films have you seen where Stalin was portrayed as a person who never really hurt anyone?Have you read Stalin's NY Times Obituary?

Have you read Stalin's NY Times Obituary? That was enough to gag a maggot. I guess the Old Gray Lady as been the Old Red Whore a lot longer than I thought. Barf!

I'm not defending - in general - the NYT. However, much of the real dirt on Uncle Joe came out long after his death. He croaked in 53, but if memory serves it wasn't until Solzhenitzen's work got disseminated in the West beginning in the mid-60s that Stalin's true savagery became recognized by the general public - as opposed to a few Russophiles privy to inside dope.
