[kj] CRASS commercialism!

[Brendan Quinn]

Interesting, especially the rare bits where Buckley lets Chomski get a word
in edgewise, or doesn't threaten to punch him in the face.

Chomsky's extremely open for debate. Look for his debates on Youtube 
starting with, say, William F Buckley, Jr. 
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYlMEVTa-PI) Or Michel Foucault. Or the 
President of Boston University. Or Alan Dershowitz over Israel. Many of 
these are on YouTube. Just type "Chomsky debate."

Often the Q&A session after his talks become debates in and of themselves.

One problem is many US media outlets won't have him on for debates. Why? 
He usually wins.

Pity you don't like him, but no one is perfect, are they? :)
