Blacklist envy

Our radio hero Hugh Hewitt has another excellent Weekly Standard column that includes a look at Jim Sleeper’s second Yale Daily News column attacking Little Trunk: “Blacklist envy.” In that column the first of four “lies” alleged by Sleeper was Joe Scarborough’s statement that he had been invited to appear on Scarborough’s show with Little Trunk and her co-author. Hugh looked into that alleged lie and notes parenthetically that Scarborough’s “producer, Gregg Cockrell, assured me that, contrary to Sleeper’s claims, he left at least three messages for the professor on the Friday before the interview and another message on Sunday–all on a message machine that was Sleeper’s.”
