I have reached the point where I can hardly watch the talking heads, I dont care if theyre Republicans or Democrats. Theyre all political operatives, they spin everything. Its never a real conversation. Hear hear!

Geez, Horowits really nailed this one. He was not seriously refuted in anything he had to say. The least paragraph, to me was the most sobering and answers many questions about where we are and the reason why.
" When I was in college during the 1950s, I never heard a professor one time in one class express a political point of view. As a Marxist, wholly out of step with the temper of those anti-Communist times, I would have been hyper-sensitive to such an intrusion. My professors, whatever their politics, were about teaching. It was never about trying to persuade their students to adopt their political prejudices. There was very little political activity on campus, which was something we on the left complained about. But we were wrong. The introduction of political agendas is an obstacle to serious reflection. If youre always fighting political battles you dont have room to think.

Incredibly good read. I had to stick with it a bit at the beginning, but what a reward.
“Radical Son” is the best autobiography I’ve ever read.

To be correct, it wasn't really a discussion. Horowitz's word count was way above Jesse's.
It's kinda puzzling... this was published in Frontpage but it was an interview by Campus Progress? Is that to say Campus Progress didn't run it?
Maybe it is more to allow us to compare what Horowitz recalls when Campus Progress finally publishes.

I also went to college in the 50s and although some of the professors and students were liberal they were open to discussion on all sides of the issues.
I fear that is less so today and that is truly tragic for the students who don’t get an opening of their minds to other points of view.
