On New Year’s Day, C-SPAN did an in-depth interview with Chris Hedges, probing the author’s entire body of work. During this engaging discussion, the Pulitzer Prize winning foreign correspondent spends three hours taking viewers’ calls, emails and tweets on topics such as terrorism, religion and politics.

This Book TV program is a comprehensive and fascinating conversation with one of America’s most important and critically lucid reporters. Hedges details in sweeping detail exactly why and how America has found itself in the sorry state that it is in today, and accurately characterizes our condition as one of a collapsing corporate empire.

This is a must see program for anyone interested in coming to grips with the full scope of the problems we face, and the course of action we can and should be looking towards ahead.
