For decades, E.J. Dionne has been one of the most prominent journalists and left-leaning political commentators in the U.S. The Washington Post columnist and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution is known not only for his sharp defenses of liberalism, but also for a deep curiosity about the other side of the political aisle. His latest book is called “Why the Right Went Wrong: Conservatism from Goldwater to the Tea Party and Beyond.” He was interviewed about the book on Feb. 24, 2016 at the University of Louisville Kentucky Author Forum. The interviewer was journalist James Fallows, a national correspondent for The Atlantic.
