(Part 2 of 3) Think Tank with Ben Wattenberg Orwell's Century. The year 2003 marks the centennial of author George Orwell's birth. Although Orwell himself disdained what he called "all the smelly little ... all » orthodoxies," both liberal and conservative social critics claim him as a prime influence. Think Tank explores how Orwell's writing shaped the twentieth century's war of ideas. Guests: John Rodden, author of George Orwell, The Politics of Literary Reputation and the forthcoming, George Orwell: Scenes From and Afterlife; and Christopher Hitchens, columnist for The Nation, and author of the forthcoming book, Orwell's Victory.

  • This vid is popular on Finland

  • You just can't win against a British accent (aaaaaand, he made much better points hahahaha).

  • hitchens's smile at 8:44 ..... classic LOL

  • John Rodden reminds me of Ted Haggard with his body language..

  • Can't keep up with the conversation? No prob, you're welcome to sit at the kiddies table.

  • Lol, right. Strange subject.

  • right, it's not like we have any of his writings to study and discuss.

  • I guess you being alone is a worse thing.

  • cont to SCODgreenhood:

    You should see _some_ of the "sophisticated" muslims here in youtube, and what they say about the things we LIKE about our culture. Mind you these are the moderate muslims, and you wouldn't belive their contempt for women. And their holy book clearly says, there can be no peace untill evryone is muslim in the world.

    Keep in mind there is NO separation of curch and state, Islam IS the state there.

    Watch the videos of the sucide bombers, the evidence is overwhelming.
