He was a columnist and literary critic at Vanity Fair, Slate, The Atlantic, World Affairs, The Nation, Free Inquiry and a variety of other media outlets. He was named one of the world's "Top 100 Public Intellectuals" by Foreign Policy and Britain's Prospect.

Far too short. I expect little better from Sky news.
You said it James. I was quite surprised why they even bothered.
On the contrary this is exactly what I expect from Sky News, a celebrity and sport obsessed network where opinions on anything generaly come from pop stars and footballers rather than intellectuals like the Hitch.
"I expect little better from Sky news."
