Watch Moyers' interview with Salman Rushdie online

You know, if I'm going to sit in front of my computer and watch a video, I really need to find a more comfortable chair. I can handle brief clips, but for longer videos I have to just sit back, prop my feet up next to the keyboard, and get as comfy as I can. I'm just saying that if I'm going to watch, say, an hour-long interview, it better be damned interesting or I'll have to find ways to spend my time that doesn't involve severe back spasms. Last night I found such an interview, conducted by journalist Bill Moyers with author Salman Rushdie as part of Moyer's Faith and Reason series. The series takes a look at the perpetual struggle between faith and reason, and Rushdie, a "hardline atheist" with a disdain for fundamentalism and a knack for ticking off hardcore Muslims, had plenty to say about it. I've been an admirer of Rushdie's work for some time, and always find interviews with him both provocative and illuminating. You can check out the interview with Rushdie and several other of Moyer's interviews here.
