One more example: When he was in a heated race for his first term as Delaware's U. S. Senator, Bill O'Reilly on more than one occasion said on his show that Chris Coons is an avowed Marxist. The only indication that Coons might possibly be an admitted Marxist was an essay he wrote for his college newspaper in his senior year. The essay was titled "The Making of a Bearded Marxist" - a title that Mr. O'Reilly surely knew that Mr. Coons had likely NOT chosen. Coons had spent his junior year in an African country. In his essay, Coons relayed a joke at that African University that clean-cut All-American boys would go there from the U. S. and return as bearded Marxists. In his essay, Coons says that his year abroad was eye-opening to different perspectives about the U.S. but that he still believed "in America and her promise" (if not an exact quote, close enough). Even if Coons was at that time an avowed Marxist, there's no indication that Coons continued to be an avowed Marxist decades later when he ran for the U. S. Senate.
Thanks.
