First Hour - The Senate to confirm General Michael
Hayden as new head of CIA?
This Week On Sunday Salon... In our first hour... Bush wants
the Senate to confirm General Michael Hayden, former head
of the National Security Agency, as the new head of the CIA
-- by the end of the week! What did we learn during his Thursday
hearings about his views on torture, spying, and the militarization
of the government? Premiums include "The Case for Impeachment"
(St. Martins Press) by Dave Lindorff and Barbara Olshansky,
"Ghost Wars" by Steve Cool, (Penguin Books) and
"Hoodwinked" by John Prados (The New Press).
Second Hour - Publishing on the Left and Right of
America
In our second hour... Conservatives have Regnery -- a quick
turn-around publisher -- to put out propaganda to reach millions
in what seems like the blink of an eye. But what about progressives.
Working Assets publishing has just published its first book:
"How Would a Patriot Act: Defending American Values from
a President Run Amok" by high-profile First Amendment
attorney Glenn Greenwald. Greenwald, and a leading force behind
Working Assets publishing, Jennifer Nix, will join us, along
with author and columnist Rick Perlstein. His most recently
published book is: " The Stock Ticker and the Superjumbo:
How the Democrats Can Once Again Become America's Dominant
Political Party. (Prickly Paradigm Press)"
