PJ O'Rourke, Political Satirist
Interviews with newsmakers and personalities from across the globe. Nobody does mockery better but, HARDtalk's Stephen Sackur asks if PJ O'Rourke has a serious point?
He's variously described politicians as whores, cockroaches and lying vermin... maybe it's time to find out what PJ O'Rourke really thinks? He's an American conservative who used to be a hippy radical; a libertarian who manages to make lefties laugh. After a journalistic career that's heaped mountains of scorn on the political class, his conclusion is simple - don't vote, it just encourages politicians. Nobody does mockery better but, HARDtalk's Stephen Sackur asks, does he have a serious point?
