Also, Hersh was the one who exposed Kennedy's renting prostitutes on a regular basis and bringing them to the WH. Hersh hates authority more than any political position--though he is certainly on the left.

FYI, Hersh was the reporter who broke My Lai for the NYT and won the Pulitzer. He was the main NYT investigative reporter on Watergate, and did a good job once he was belatedly assigned to that story. He broke the stories of US subs running aground in Russian harbors and other military blunders. He did a vicious JFK bio and a questionable book using a doubtful Israeli intelligence source. On getting juicy military stories, he has no equal.
