This is so exciting! Tomorrow I join a panel of some pretty cool people talking about some pretty cool things on the BBC programme (see how I spelled it all British-like?), Newsnight Review
Panelists
Topics
Then review items
If you have thoughts on any of these things that I can appropriate as my own, jump in!
Panelists
- Me
- Ron Silver (actor/director and has his own political radio talkshow)
- Kathleen Parker (syndicated columnist) - yes THAT Kathleen Parker
- Joe Queenan (film critic/author).
Topics
- What's happened to American culture under the Bush presidency. How did TV, film, literature and music respond to Sept 11th? Or the Iraq War? Is there more political diversity in the arts now? Would Obama or McCain be better for the cultural life of the country or does it not really make a difference?
Then review items
- W the movie (which I did not like)
- Generation Kill - (which I love!).
- Toni Morrison's new book, A Mercy
If you have thoughts on any of these things that I can appropriate as my own, jump in!

Hey, I saw the programme last night and thought you were great. But the aggression off Joe Queenan and Ron Silver was something else!
Joe Queenan waving Toni Morrison and demanding to know whether Europe had anyone who could write like that... wow.
