Even if you're on the mid or far right, you might want to at least tape the program; maybe a spouse or other relative or friend might like to see it someday. Likewise, *you* might "ought" to see it, if only to better understand the intricacies, strengths, and weaknesses of the other side's thinking, or for plotting against. NOTE: this is on C-SPAN2, not C-SPAN ("one"). Pretty much every cable system gets C-SPAN (during the week, covers the "House"). Unfortunately, not as many also provide C-SPAN2 (during the week, covers the Senate). "Booktv" is what C-SPAN2 calls its weekly weekend-bookprogram, consisting of 48-hours of book-discussions, each one led by the book's author(s), and usually an hour long. (As you'll note from the schedule below, many if not most of the books come from "the right". Their having Chomsky is unusual, to say the least.) Every week or two, they'll interview one author "in detail", for three hours, and they chose Chomsky for this weekend. The schedule below says the three-hour interview will be at noon today (Sunday) (E.S.T.), til 3pm (live, I believe), then repeated at 6pm (they say til 8, but being three hours long, it must really end at 9pm?), then once again at midnight, til 3am. To verify that the scheduled-times haven't changed, check out C-SPAN2's "booktv" web site, either directly, at www.booktv.org (click on "schedule"), or get there via c-span2: www.c-span2.org, and click on "booktv". ----- CALL-INS: According to the (very) long blurb down below, for the noon to 3pm show, you can phone in with questions & comments, or email them; perhaps they'll even use C-SPAN's usual two-phone-number scheme, one for the "left", one for the "right". ------- THIS WEEKEND'S BOOKTV SCHEDULE: [NOTE: "Program start times approximate AND ALL TIMES ARE EASTERN", add eg 3 for California] Schedule Grid - Saturday, May 31 8:00 am [7]Sol Stern, Breaking Free: Public School Lessons and the Imperative of School Choice 9:00 am [8]Douglas Brinkley, Wheels for the World 10:00 am [9]Robert Patterson, Dereliction of Duty: The Eyewitness Account of How Bill Clinton Compromised America's National Security 11:00 am Featured Program: [10]2003 Book Expo-Saturday Coverage 8:00 pm [11]The Program usually airing at this time has been pre-empted for our coverage of BookExpo in Los Angeles 8:00 pm Featured Program: [12]2003 Book Expo-Saturday Coverage 11:00 pm [13]The Program usually airing at this time has been pre-empted for our coverage of BookExpo in Los Angeles Schedule Grid - Sunday, June 1 5:00 am [14]Robert Harms, Suzannah Lessard, Nicholas Lemann, & Samantha Power, Unacknowledged Legislators Panel with Samantha Power, Robert Harms, Suzannah Lessard, and Nicholas Lemann 6:30 am [15]Bill McKibben, Enough: Staying Human in an Engineered Age 7:30 am [16]James Moore & Wayne Slater, Bush's Brain: How Karl Rove Made George W.
