Political satirist Bill Maher on this edition of Fresh Air. He's just published When you ride ALONE you ride with bin Laden: What the Government Should Be Telling Us to Help Fight the War on Terrorism. It's a coffee table book of post 9/11 political posters, with slogans such as "Political Correctness is Dangerous...Demand Real Security," and "Put a Flag on Your Car...It's Literally the Least You Can Do/Empty Gestures Don't Win Wars." For nine years, Maher was the host of the TV talk show Politically Incorrect, which aired first on Comedy Central and then on ABC. The network pulled the show in June of this year, citing declining ratings. (Broadcast Date: November 7, 2002)
