| Summary | The anniversary anthology, Part II. WFB: "Firing Line was never conceived as an 'interview.' It was conceived, and indeed the original contract specifically called for an 'exchange of opinion.' The idea was that a conservative position on many matters of public policy tends to be ignored, or trivialized, in a mighty communications industry wired to the pressure points of contemporary and even trendy American liberalism. Accordingly, the producers thought, why not experiment and see if a conservative view of current affairs could survive the battering, week after week, of expert proponents of the Left?" |
