[Audio] As we reported last month, one of the first moves taken by new CNN president Jonathan Klein was to cancel the network’s signature shout-fest, Crossfire. The response from the critics? Enthusiastic to say the least. But at least one pundit doesn’t agree that this model of political debate is, as Jon Stewart recently put it, “hurting America.” Michael Kinsley, one-time host of Crossfire and current opinion and editorial editor at the L.A. Times, wrote a fond eulogy for the show. He joins us to defend Crossfire’s sullied reputation. [from OnTheMedia.org]
