Three Against One

Four if you count the "moderator."  [More]

But it'll be "Beyond the Politics." Honest.

I've taken on worse odds -- but it was via written arguments.  The dynamics of doing it live with no chance to consider the best way to respond make this a dangerous venture, particularly if audience hostility factors into things.

Phil is showing a lot of courage here and I wish him well. I would not participate in a live forum this stacked and expect anyone wanted to give what I had to say a fair hearing.

Very few participants can survive such an obvious mugging. The only one that comes to mind is John Lott taking Sarah Brady, John Hechinger, and other notable human rights violators to the cleaners on PBS when they intended to “debunk” his (then) new book, and faied miserably.

I love Philip’s expertise and devotion, but after having been (unfairly, but it counts) made a fool of by Katie Couric, and then again by “First Freedom Television,” one would hope he would independently arrive at the conclusion that he should not count Beating Biased Media at Their Own Game among his personal strengths.
