The Northern Alliance, Second Hour

For the first half of our second hour today we interviewed Ramesh Ponnuru of National Review, discussing his new book The Party of Death. It’s a fascinating conversation with a brilliant guy. This was followed by our regular feature, “This Week in Gatekeeping,” in which we skewer mainstream media follies. Today, once again, our target was the New York Times, an organization that seems destined to retire the trophy. It’s pretty funny; don’t miss it. The hour concluded with another astonishing media story: the Times defends Zarqawi against unjust ridicule by the U.S. Army! We couldn’t make this stuff up.
