Firing Line Videos, Hoover Institution, taped on December 7, 1994, uploaded to YouTube on March 5, 2015.

Guests: Betty Friedan, Elizabeth Fox-Genovese, Arianna Huffington, Helen Alvare, Karen S. Burstein, Camille Paglia, Kathryn Kolbert

Summary:

Anyone who thinks “the women’s movement” is monolithic should watch this show. Come to think of it, anyone who enjoys good theater should watch this show. One sample: Camille Paglia: “Just as Mr. Buckley would not want to abolish Catholicism because of the excesses of certain fanatics, so must we not attribute to feminism the excesses of various neurotics and incompetents.”
