Talk:A.N.S.W.E.R.
Here's to hoping that contributors to this topic can start referencing some facts; and identify the disputes; and more directly relate this content to the SourceWatch themes. --Maynard 18:39, 9 Dec 2004 (EST)
The unfortunate thing about trying to document ANSWER's abuses (and by connection the WWP and ISO) are hard, considering the transitory nature of most anarchist media websites, where most of the criticism centers. While I've had no personal experience with the group, a number of activist friends of mine have, and have nothing but bad things to say about their authoritarian management and structure. That is the general strain amongst activists, though its hard to pinpoint where its documented, since sectarian disputes are hardly the coverage of mainstream news, and often times contradictory statements abound amongst the various independent media groups.
