Seller's Description:
Very good in Good jacket. xii, [3], 280, [8] pages. Foreword by Ralph Nader. Introduction by Nicholas Johnson. Notes. Index. This is a Wiley-Interscience Publication. Michael Kinsley (born March 9, 1951) is an American political journalist and commentator. Primarily active in print media as both a writer and editor, he also became known to television audiences as a co-host on Crossfire. Kinsley has been a notable participant in the mainstream media's development of online content. While still a third-year law student, Kinsley began working at The New Republic. He was allowed to finish his Harvard juris doctor degree through courses at the evening program at The George Washington University Law School. Kinsley's first exposure to a national television audience was as moderator of William Buckley's Firing Line. In 1979, he became editor of The New Republic and wrote the magazine's TRB column for most of the 1980s and 1990s. The theme of Kinsley's book, "Outer Space and Inner Sanctums, " is an elaboration on the observation of the French writer Charles Peguy that "Everything begins as mystical and ends as political." The tax dollars of American citizens that supported the space program paid for the development of satellites. To manage the use of satellites for communication Congress created a novel entity-a "semipublic corporation"-called "Comsat." The large private communications companies, known in Government parlance as "carriers, " bought half the stock in Comsat. The public was invited to purchase the other half. The Federal Communications Commission was charged with keeping close watch over the new body. Comsat was intended to combine the advantages of private ownership with those of public control. Instead, asserts Kinsley who began this study under the auspices of Ralph Nader, it has exhibited the worst features of each. Comsat's operations have been as sluggish and timid as the most conservative Government bureaucracy.
