Jeremy over at Who Knew? compares the Bill Moyers of yesterday with the Bill Moyers of today. I doubt it "means" much but it's an angle on Moyers I hadn't been aware of.
I'd heard about Moyers's anti-Tomlinson campaign, but I hadn't looked at the essay itself till now. I can't recommend reading the whole thing, but I did enjoy this passage, where Moyers warns his opponents what they may be messing with:
They’ve been after me for years now and I suspect they will be stomping on my grave to make sure I don’t come back from the dead.Posted by Dr. Frank at May 20, 2005 03:13 AM | TrackBackI should remind them, however, that one of our boys pulled it off some two thousand years ago -- after the Pharisees, Sadducees and Caesar’s surrogates thought they had shut him up for good.
Moyers' crucifixion will make good television (or is that supposed to have happened already?)
Anyway, thanks for the Link, Doc.

Respect!

Did someone say complex?
Posted by: Chrees at May 21, 2005 12:41 AMQuite a complex complex.
