Criticism

In a 2005 interview with Joshua Frank, Ward Churchill discussed issues he had with Z Magazine. Churchill claimed 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.[16]Template:R/superscript

In 2012, George Monbiot criticized the site's defence of the book The Politics of Genocide by Edward S. Herman and David Peterson, which he said had been called a work of genocide denial by scholars he had consulted such as Martin Shaw.[21][22]
