ZNetwork, formerly known as Z Communications, is a left-wing activist-oriented media group founded in 1986 by Michael Albert and Lydia Sargent.[2] It is, in broad terms, ideologically libertarian socialist, anti-capitalist, and heavily influenced by participatory economics, although much of its content is focused on critical commentary of foreign affairs.[citation needed] Its publications include Z Magazine, ZNet, and Z Video.[3]Template:R/superscript Since early November 2022, they have all been regrouped under the name ZNetwork.

Reception

In a 2005 interview with Joshua Frank, Ward Churchill discussed issues he had with Z Magazine. Churchill said an article he worked on was not published for two years and was misattributed. He also felt Albert and Sargent had greater influence than others involved with the publication.[17]Template:R/superscript

In 2012, George Monbiot wrote a critical article about the book The Politics of Genocide by Edward Herman and David Peterson. Znet published a response to Monbiot from Herman and Peterson. Monbiot said he asked Michael Albert to publish Martin Shaw's review of Herman and Peterson's book on Znet to balance the comments from Herman and Peterson. Albert refused.[22]
