World Policy Institute and Demos

invite you to a discussion with
WPI Senior Fellow Eric Alterman

about his new book

The label "liberal" has grown into an epithet of nearly epic proportions of late, among conservatives and the mainstream media. But what, really, is the "liberalism" that has become such a misrepresented and misunderstood part of our political discourse and why, unbeknownst to most pundits, do most Americans subscribe to its beliefs? In WHY WE'RE LIBERALS: A Political Handbook for Post-Bush America (Viking), Eric Alterman, one of the country's best-known and most respected liberal authors, brings the same gleeful debunking to this topic that made his WHAT LIBERAL MEDIA? both a bestseller and the standard work on the topic of bias in the media.
