Steve Nash, the oh so popular Canadian basketball stud of the Phoenix Suns and well known anti-war "activist" and Obama supporter recently dipped his toes in the political waters once again.
According to an interview on the Suns blog Bright Side of the Sun, he said this about Sean Penn's articlein the Nation (which Nash had tweeted a link to) detailing his visits with Castro and Chavez:
"I thought it was an interesting article because I thought it was a new look, an new perspective on the situations. A new connectivity to the situations. I think it is always a good lesson for us to not necessarily buy into what some would say is an influenced, motivated main stream media."
Clearly, Nash does not want sports fans to believe everything they read in the paper...or watch on TV...
Way to go Nash! Go Suns!
