Kaye goes conservative


(Thought that headline would get your attention.) In truth, Prof. Harvey Kaye — the peerless populist, progressive promoter — is going conservative only in the sense he’s doing some right-leaning radio this week. A popular guest on a number of nationally syndicated political talk shows in connection with his Thomas Paine and Franklin Roosevelt scholarship, the UW-Green Bay professor has already appeared this week on the conservative Chuck Morse Speaks program, in a 90-minute conversation that aired Tuesday. At 9:15 a.m. CDT Thursday (April 9), he’ll talk FDR and the Four Freedoms with progressive/moderate host Nicole Sandler. On Friday (April 10), he’ll do a third FDR-themed conversation, this time on the conservative Hudson Valley Radio 1450, at 7 a.m.
