Writer, activist, cultural critic and iconoclast Gore Vidal talks to Senior Correspondent Maria Hinojosa about what the killings at Virginia Tech, and their aftermath, say about the state of America today.

Vidal also shares his strong views on President Bush, a potential war with Iran, and 'the loss of the republic.'

  • Sadly the last voice of freedom for the American Republic and its people.

  • Wow! He reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut in his brutal honesty. I'm addicted to Gore Vidal now and have been watching everything with him on YouTube.

  • Americans do have a penchant for violence especially with their autos. Over 400 are killed per day and no one seems to take notice!

  • Thank you, Maria, for your interview of this American Icon. He tells it like it is; the wars we are now waging were uncalled for. He dislikes Bush Jr. He was the worst president the US has ever had. Anyway, regardless of what some people might say, Gore Vidal is an icon and a true American.

  • Mi admiración para este norteamericano y gracias a María Hinojosa por la entrevista y por pronunciar apropiadamente su propio nombre.

  • The brutal honesty of Gore Vidal does show Maria Hinojosa as a blind patriot

  • all people and this planet are dying. America too.this is craziness

  • Gore Vidal is NOT a Iconoclast. Maria Hinojosa introduced him as a iconoclast. That doesn't make it so just because one woman says so.

    Think about it.
