We met a year ago at a conference put on by the Buckley Program at yale, and i can see that she at the time she has a real affinity for trying to understand the connection between the Communications World and the media world, on the one hand, and different elements of the conservative movement on the other. So its this is a natural kind of outgrowth of her previous work, looking at that general area. Open to debate is the book, heather has watched not maybe every single one of 33 years worth of firing line episodes but pretty close to it so probably the reigning expert on all things related to firing line. So help me welcome Heather Hendershot to the program. [applause] thank you so much. Its really great to be here, particularly here at the hoover institution, because the hoover was so important to the research i did on the book. I was out at stanford where all the papers are, and of course they have preserved all the episodes and son but the papers and transcriptscouldnt have done it

Because on the beginning was this feeling that we have right path to the paradise, maybe. And now from 2008 it was clear that things are much more complicated and that its not that you are part of democratic system and everything is solved. And maybe there is some feeling, maybe, that some feeling of marginalization, maybe, is part of this, maybe disappointment now because economically, maybe after economic and financial crisis started, also crisis, maybe greece crisis in europe, then started this ukrainian, russia and migrant crisis, now brexit.
