Hewitt versus Beinart

Next Thursday (February 10) I’ll be moderating the Patriot Forum sponsored by local Twin Cities Salem Radio affiliate AM 1280 “The Patriot” between Hugh Hewitt and Peter Beinart on the future of the Democratic Party. The forum will be held downtown Minneapolis at the Hilton Hotel.
Click here to purchase tickets for the event — there are still plenty available, from as little as $49 (including dinner). As a bonus, the Patriot is offering a copy of Hugh’s new book (Blog: Understanding the Information Reformation that’s Changing Your World) with each purchase of tickets.
Hugh Hewitt is of course the proprietor of one of the most entertaining shows in talk radio and an intellectual dynamo. See, for example, Hugh’s Daily Standard column today on Eason Jordan and John Kerry: “Media notes.” Peter Beinart is the brilliant editor of the New Republic.
From his perch at the New Republic, Beinart is himself playing a leading role in shaping the future of the Democratic Party. I’ll be asking the questions and keeping the speakers within time limits so that we can cover a lot of territory and keep the program moving. We’ll wind up with questions from the audience.
