which is both educational and amusing. Not to mention an indirect commentary, in the context of this story, on what a less hysterical US federal government's FCC might aspire to. (As a result, I'm having "I'll Bet You They Won't Play This Song On The Radio" flashbacks.)
...asked if [I] would write some kind of elegy for Canadian journalist/historian/author/television personality Pierre Berton...let me say that one of the things I admired most about Pierre was his ability to challenge and confront other people in a genial, gentlemanly way.
If you want a good elegy for Mr. Berton, allow me to point you to Colby Cosh, who provides an interesting writeup; after all, he's a new-school conservative who's writing up an old-school liberal.
And for your enjoyment, I've enclosed a video that you'd never see a similar American figure take part in; it's of Pierre Berton explaining how to roll a joint.
