Description

In his third appearance on Firing Line, Mr. Lowenstein is, as always, genial and

interesting, but in this case his hatred of Richard Nixon runs so deep that we don't learn a great deal about Watergate (the ADA, under Mr. Lowenstein's direction, had called for Mr. Nixon's impeachment before Watergate, principally on account of the bombing in Laos--see Firing Line #S1). AL: "The rabbis used to tell me you should not engage in Schadenfreude, which is the process of enjoying the suffering of others. I must say that every time I think of the latest involvement of the White House, when I think of--" WFB: "You're tempted." AL: "I'm tempted."
