Summary
New York Times columnist Frank Rich on this edition of Fresh Air. His new book is The Greatest Story Ever Sold: The Decline and Fall of Truth from 9/11 to Katrina. It's about the endless spin that comes out of the Bush administration. Rich has been with the Times since 1980, when he was named Chief Theater Critic. His nickname was "The Butcher of Broadway." In 1994, Rich became an Op-Ed columnist for the paper. His pieces focus on politics and culture. Slate magazine recently re-dubbed him "The Butcher of the Beltway." Rich's other books include Ghost Light and Hot Seat. Then, jazz critic Kevin Whitehead reviews Harry Miller's Ispingo: Which Way Now? It's a newly issued historical recording from the South African bassist Harry Miller and his sextet. Lastly, book critic Maureen Corrigan reviews The Dissident by Nell Freudenberger. It's a debut novel about a Chinese artist who is invited to be a visiting scholar at a Los Angeles girls' academy. (Broadcast Date: September 20, 2006)
