Colbert Working for the NBCC?

Sat down with John Freeman, president of the National Book Critics Circle yesterday for a nice chat. I used a fancy new digital recorder so I'll be able to pod cast our conversation on the decline in print coverage for books and a few other meandering topics we touched on . Look for that early next week, but in the mean time check out this clip from the Colbert Report about how, "We are winning the war against the literazi's" as the decline in print coverage of books illustrates - it's damn funny.

Also, don;t wait to get your tickets for the Saturday morning breakfast at BEA featuring Colbert, Ken Burns, , Lisa See and Khaled Hosseini. Tickets are almost sold out and this is shaping up to be the biggest attended author event in BEA history!
