I can't believe it

9. People are hungry for the truth.
I don't know if Chomsky's book has any answers but the fact that his book would shoot to #4, after Chavez spoke about it, tells me that people are seeking alternatives to Fox News.

10. That's hilarious
I'm not the world's biggest Chomsky fan but if it gets people to think critically and open their eyes, then all the better.
