This morning I appeared on WNYCs Brian Lehrer Show to discuss The Culture Crash, my article for City Journal about arts endowments in the economic downturn. If you missed the broadcast, a recorded version of the segment has just gone up on the shows website and on itunes.
I encourage you to listen in and posts your comments about the broadcast on the shows website here. WNYC has also posted more about funding of the arts on its blog here (with an additional comment from me).
Lets keep the discussion going. Since I am in the process of writing a short online follow-up article for City Journal, your comments are all the more appreciated.

In the Aeneid, the Roman poet Virgil sang of "arms and a man" (Arma virumque cano). Month in and month out, The New Criterion expounds with great clarity and wit on the art, culture, and political controversies of our times. With postings of reviews, essays, links, recs, and news, Armavirumque seeks to continue this mission in accordance with the timetable of the digital age.
