Here is one excerpt, Henry Farrell and Megan McArdle, of course it is free. Being a long-time fan of Harold Innis, I cannot help but wonder which kinds of messages are favored in this medium. If print favors analysis, and TV favors storytelling, how about Bloggingheads? There are comments here. Here is Drezner and Brink Lindsey.
McArdle smoked him.
I am watching it from a public with no sound. The only thing I could tell at this point is that good look matters.
I think the format is not a good one. It would be better to have people discuss things solo.
I think that the one thing that this resolved for me is that there is a lot of disagreement concerning basic facts and perspective between the two. But, the discussion itself did nothing to resolve these issues.
I download the audio and listen in the car occasionally.
Robert Wright, in a session with Glennocide Reynolds has said that his hopes are that it would be more civil than blogging. I think the problem with that is that people like Glenn are then less likely to be called out on advocating genocide.
thank you very much for this article
