Bill Bennett has some very interesting points to make about the MSM, the pajamahideen, talk radio, and the new form of political discourse which is coming into existence, where "the lecture is fading, and it is being replaced by the interactive national seminar, where callers inform the host and audience as much as the host is informing listeners..."

"In the end, it is a very American thing."
