Description: In an age when few new magazines last more than a year, Spy magazine has managed to steadily increase its circulation and ad revenues by feeding readers a steady diet of satirical, often nasty, tidbits of high-brow gossip. Is Spy's success - along with popularity of Morton Downey and negative advertising - indicative a new mean-spiritedness in which malice and nastiness win the day? Host Robert Lipsyte explores meanness in America with Spy editors Graydon Carter and Kurt Anderson; writer Christopher Hitchens; and media critic Jeff Cohen. Original Broadcast Date: 6-13-89
