A Meeting

I met Jeffrey Toobin, New Yorker writer and CNN commentator, today as he visited KQED to promote his new book about the Patty Hearst kidnapping on KQED's talkshow program, "Forum." It turns out Toobin was running late for the interview and the senior producer asked me to stand in for him at the start of the program.

So I went over and waited in the control room, ready to perform, when Toobin arrived just in time for the show. It was a very good show. In addition, host Michael Krasny and Toobin mentioned the articles in Rolling Stone that my friend Howard Kohn and I co-authored many decades ago three times.

Afterwards I introduced myself and walked Toobin out of KQED. He told me I was his "hero." I told him he was mine.

All Matters

Claire with Peter at last night's Giants' game.

Unfortunately the Giants lost. But she was appropriately bundled up for our climate.

There were three apparent terror attacks last night, which somewhat diminishes what happens at a sports game.

Monitoring media today as I try to figure out what is going on here...
