Heavens, I spend most of my radio life trying to expose the underexposed - academics, thinktankers, journalists, etc., who get little attention from any broadcast media. Take a look at the guestlist at <http://www.leftbusinessobserver.com/Radio.html> and tell me if it displays a weakness for stars with extravagant hair. This is just the sort of purism that makes the American left (oh, right, Carrol Cox says that doesn't exist) so alienating and marginal. The hell with that.
