Nerd News: Howard Zinn Has Died

Since it is not polite to speak ill of the dead, all I shall say now is that he was quite influential in academia. Whether his influence was positive or not is a matter for debate. If we may safely say that we can tell a lot about a person by his friends and enemies, then I remind you that Zinn was a friend of Noam Chomsky.
