Second Degree Burns

Last Saturday, King Banaian and I interviewed Eric Burns on the First Team of the NARN. We spent the first ten minutes of the interview discussing the surprising news that Burns had been given the gate by Fox News. He was surprisingly open and opinionated on the matter and didn't pull any punches.

You can hear it for yourself here. The rest of the interview was devoted to Burns' new book:



During the book discussion, we talked about the idea that a people gets the government, media, and culture that it deserves and his view that Americans haven't been very deserving of late. It was an interesting (if slightly depressing) conversation with an engaging man who deserves a much better fate than the one that befell him at Fox.
