For those with short memories, Jayatilleke was better known as Anuruddha Tilakasiri during the Premadasa era, when he wrote a regular column for the Observer, taking on most of Premadasa’s many pugnacious detractors. Now, Jayatilleke has metamorphosed into Editor, turning the Lanka Guardian into a magazine that is largely a reflection of the Editor’s convictions.”“If the Lanka Guardian is a reflection of Dayan’s ideology, then it's not surprising that the Guardian has also carried various tracts and analysis intermittently on Marxist doctrinal affairs. But, compared to the force of the pro-Premadasist, fiercely anti-PA stance [note: PA refers to the People’s Alliance headed by Chandrika Kumaratunga, the then President] that the magazine now regularly adopts, the little nod at dialectical Marxism is a quaint aberration it appears.To me, Jayatileke embodies the noveau capitalist ideologue, and since ‘capitalist ideologues’ did not exist in the same sense that ‘Marxist ideologues’ existed, I see Jayatilleke as one among a new breed of ideologues who have emerged in the vacuum created by the ‘death’ of Marxist ideologues in the post-Cold War political discourse. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rolleyes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Rolleyes    :rolleyes:" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /> by Rajpal Abenayake</blockquote>
