George Packer Interview
The guest is George Packer, author of "The Assassins' Gate: America in Iraq." Parker, a writer for The New Yorker, supported the war at the beginning but accuses the Bush Administration of "criminal negligence" in the way it handled the occupation. I debate with him the merits of the war and the question of withdrawal.
Welcome to the Radio Offerings of The Progressive
We produce two things.
First, we offer a weekly half-hour interview show called "Progressive Radio," hosted by Matthew Rothschild, the editor of The Progressive.
And second, Rothschild does a short commentary every weekday, called "Progressive Point of View,” which runs approximately 90 seconds.
Both are free to radio stations and listeners.
