I HAVE the most professional publishers I’ve ever had. Regnery, that is. They’re in the business of shifting product in large quantity, and to that end they’ve had me staggering from one radio or TV interview to another for months on end, plugging my book on the dangerously enfeebled state of Western civilization. Mostly to the usual suspects, I have to admit: Fox, right-wing talk radio, and so on. But a few weeks ago I suggested to my publicist that, much as I enjoyed taking calls that began, “Your book is the best book I’ve read in my entire adult life,” I wouldn’t mind doing a few shows from the other side, down the NPR-PBS end of things.
My publicist pursed her lips. “We could book you on those shows,” she said. “But I’m not sure it’s a good idea.”
