Together with the other ultra-right anti-Communist crusader groups, the John Birch Society has been condemned by every important political figure in the nation, even Barry Goldwater; by spokesmen and official bodies representing all the major religions, including Catholics, Baptists and evangelicals; by every newspaper and magazine that is not itself an avowed part of the extremist-right propaganda apparatus, even such as the New York Daily News and William F. Buckley's National Review.
