In November 2012, [[Hudson Institute]] adjunct [[Research fellow|fellow]] historian [[Ronald Radosh]] lambasted ''"Oliver Stone's 'The Untold History of the United States'"'' [[Showtime]] television series (and accompanying book) as ''"mendacious"'' [[Cold War]] [[revisionism]] and ''"mindless recycling of [[Joseph Stalin|Stalin]]'s [[propaganda]],"'' noting similarities to Communist author and [[NKVD]] agent [[Carl Marzani]]'s Soviet-published treatise ''We Can Be Friends.''<ref>{{cite web | author=[[Ronald Radosh]] | url=http://www.weeklystandard.com/articles/story-told_660176.html?nopager=1 | title=A Story Told Before: Oliver Stone’s recycled leftist history of the United States | publisher=The Weekly Standard | date= November 12, 2012 | accessdate=November 4, 2011}}</ref>  Writes Radosh:<blockquote>''"Over and over, Stone uses the same quotations, the same arrangements of material, and the same arguments as Marzani.
