Brendan O’Neill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brendan O'Neill is a journalist based in London. He is currently the editor of Spiked Online.
He began his career at Spiked's predecessor, LM magazine, the journal of the Revolutionary Communist Party, which was forced to close following a libel action brought by ITN. He has contributed articles to publications in the United Kingdom and the United States including The Spectator, the New Statesman, The Guardian, BBC News Online, the Christian Science Monitor, The American Conservative and Salon.com.[1] He also blogs at Comment is free, part of the Guardian Unlimited site.
O'Neill has criticised the notion of tackling global warming by solely reducing carbon emissions, and instead advocates technological progress as a method of overcoming any side-effects of climate change.[2]. In January 2006, he co-founded the Manifesto Club, an organisation "with the aim of challenging cultural trends that restrain and stifle people’s aspirations and initiative." He is writing a book about terrorism titled From Bosnia to Beslan: How the West Spread al-Qaeda.[3]
