Joseph S. Diedrich interviews Wendy McElroy

Libertarian America: A conversation with Wendy McElroy, Part 1 | Washington Times Communities - Joseph S. Diedrich:

November 9, 2013 - "Wendy McElroy, a Canadian individualist feminist author, has written numerous articles and several books on topics ranging from anarchist history to sexual expression. Her most recent effort, The Art of Being Free, is an exposition of the state of liberty in our world. An emotional connection to the social philosophy she cares about so deeply shines brightly in every word she pens.

"McElroy holds nothing back and her opinions are refreshingly direct. In the tradition of her intellectual role models Benjamin Tucker and Samuel E. Konkin III, her distaste for the state is matched in intensity only by her love of humanity."

Libertarian America: A conversation with Andrew Kirell | Washington Times Communities - Joseph S. Diedrich, The Business of Living:

 "MADISON, Wis., August 3, 2013 ­― Andrew Kirell, senior editor at the news outlet Mediaite, prides himself on 'chronicling the blowhards in political media.' Before joining Mediaite, Kirell worked on John Stossel’s production team at Fox Business and ABC News. Overwhelmed by journalistic magnetism, he decided to forego television production to pursue writing and editorial work.

"Kirell, who is heavily influenced by his experiences at George Mason University studying under free-market economics professors like Walter Williams, Byran Caplan, and Don Boudreaux, enjoys using his position at Mediaite to dish out some 'equal-opportunity mockery of the Northeast Corridor’s worst bloviators.'"
