Thomas Frank on Media Matters in 30 minutes!
with Bob McChesney to talk about how the heartland turned conservative (used to be a hotbed for lefty radicalism in the early 1900s).

Promises to be an excellent show. Frank's book "What's the Matter with Kansas" has been burning up the charts, especially after the election.

Listen here: http://www.will.uiuc.edu/am/mediamatters /
The show will be archived at the same place.


Next week we'll have Paul Krugman on the show.

4. A good show and the last question was also a good one
About what Frank's next book would be about. The answer, what Franks thinks the Democrats could do to counteract this conservative movement. I'd buy that book.

Also, if Bob could have Tom Frank on and just the two of them talk, that would be a great show.

5. I agree that would be a great and needed book
as for just the two of them talking, our last show with him was taped:

7. Yes, I listened to that show. Twice
It was great even on the second listening. Bob and Tom both raise such interesting aspects of ideas and trends that just a one hour show was not long enough. At least not for me.

Thanks also for the archiving. Right now am listening to the FAIR interview. Next will be the Robert Perry interview. Both original airings I missed the first time around.

10. On your website, if you've interviewed someone twice is it ever a rerun?
