No, Lew definitely runs a big tent. The balance tends toward the paleo-libertarian side of things, though, at least in my view, and so seeing Zinn come across was a bit of a surprise

I might be out of school here, but LRC is a lot more big tent than most any other libertarian website.

Or is there a site I am missing out on?

Ah, the tribulations of not having an entirely shared context with my comrades

I probably should have linked to this LRC post that I was mocking: http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/022743.html

Sometimes I get too obscure for my own good.

Zinn is an anarchist, but of a different stripe than you and I -- more of a Chomsky type I believe. I finished reading one of his books recently, quite worthwhile, though I myself would have laid emphasis in different directions or on different aspects at times. And this just in: Robert Kaercher quotes Zinn for Columbus Day

This Zinn character isn’t some kind of “comrade,” is he? Because that would be icky.
