Your blog entry of 6/6/08: Re: Bobby Kennedy

Sometimes fiction is truer than "news" or reportage. I once read a very interesting take on the two older living Kennedy brothers in a book, I believe, called American Tabloid by James Elroy. His politics are probably usually different than mine; but, his art/vision - I think at least in that case - is pretty dead on. I can't speak as reverentially of the Kennedys as you speak of Robert Kennedy in your blog. I doubt his real support, politically, of the encampment other than at the time it was a thorn to the Johnson establishment; and, I think the reverence that has enveloped the Kennedy's over the years has been and remains a show business artifact.
I am glad to see that you have moved to WEAA; and, I hope you are doing well.

Sincerely,
Dave Nudel
