> Communist 'thewire' is your source that too for when there is official clarifications?

The value of your comment dropped with this statement. Calling something or someone as “communist” and using it as a derogatory term in an unrelated context is inappropriate, IMO.

I read 'communist' as factual, not derogatory. Comment criticised previous poster for using biased source when unbiased is available.

If you don't know where the bias is coming then how can you judge it objectively ? I will not take fox news or British tabloids seriously just like these guys.

It is not name calling when the editors have a history with the ideology. Its a common knowledge. If you ask them they will say the same (In india, its not a derogatory term) !.
