James Peterson, Bucknell Professor: Great Job

James Peterson, a Bucknell English professor, fared well in taking criticism from Geraldo, Sean Hannity, and even Alan Colmes, just now on "Hannity and Colmes" on Fox. I couldn't find a webpage for him, but he was described as a "hip hop scholar" on the tube, and the listing on the Bucknell page says that and a bit more, including that he is a Penn PhD.

The topic was Danny Glover's relationships with Hugo Chavez and John Edwards, but Peterson's well-reasoned and dispassionate points were hard to hear over the blather and chatter of the talking heads.
