We recently had the opportunity to sit down and speak with Dr. Thompson who describes himself as a "a surgeon, scholar, fulltime sports fan and part-time political activist."
During our discussion we talked about the why Dr. Thompson started his blog whereistheoutrage.com which can be visited at: http://www.whereistheoutrage.net/wordpress/.
Dr. Thompson's concerns about the Bush administration run deep. In 2004 he published a book about his issues with the Bush administrations policies. During our conversation we discuss why he was so moved to go beyond simple emotional conversation with like-minded people to creating a blog, writing a book, and starting a regular radio program out of his Asheville, NC home to discuss issues he feels incredibly are central to the national interest.
We also discuss how the media enabled the progression of Bush administration policies that Dr. Thompson finds unfavorable and how the media can be transformed to better meet address our national concerns from his perspective.
