New Benson & Ham Book Exposes Lefty Shut-Uppers

Dear Reader,

We take great pleasure in informing NR readers of forthcoming books by our comrades in the battle for liberty.

Next week (June 9^th to be specific) is the publication date for End of Discussion: How the Left's Outrage Industry Shuts Down Debate, Manipulates Voters, and Makes America Less Free (and Fun), the new book co-authored by our pals Guy Benson and Mary Katherine Ham.

The 9^th is the date it will be in bookstores, but don't wait: purchase your pre-publication copy here, at Amazon.

Free speech as been under relentless attack by the Left (our Charlie Cooke recently reported on NRO the depressing state of esteem being suffered by the First Amendment), so it is important that defenders of liberty fight back -- that's exactly what Mary Katherine and Guy do in this important new book, where they expose how liberals exploit fake outrage to silence their political opponents.

End the Discussion has its own website www.endofdiscussionbook.com -- you should check it out.

If you're sick and tired of how liberal elites and establishment grievance-mongers and academic pinheads are trying to shut you up -- how they are trying to end the discussion -- then you have to get End the Discussion. Here's how the PR gurus (God bless them and their amazing talents!) for Guy and Mary Katharine describe the noxious Outrage Industry:

It's the media frenzy, orchestrated by the Left, designed to shut down debate. Opposing viewpoints on topics like gay marriage, government policies, and women's issues are labeled racist, sexist, and evil. A coalition of blowhards and busybodies with boundless energy adds to the list of the officially offensive every day. Instead of engaging in discussion, they eliminate speech that makes them uncomfortable, demanding boycotts, firings, regulations, and other economic costs for the sin of disagreeing with them.

And, if you think this impulse is relegated to political fights or politicians, think again. A network of well-trained operatives, nonprofit groups, liberal leaders, P.R. firms, universities, politicians, and "thought leaders" exists to foment outrage over your association with the "wrong" fried chicken joints, Internet browsers, breast cancer charities, pasta, children's toys, Halloween costumes, TV shows, schools, even comedians' jokes.

With Ham and Benson's help readers can cut through the noise and find their voices again. With fresh reporting and insightful, occasionally tongue-in-cheek, analysis, End of Discussion is certain to be a timely handbook for anyone trying to figure out what is really going on behind the headlines and how to make sure debate doesn't meet an ugly death as the outrage industry revs up for 2016.

Fight back, and know who you're fighting, before you throw the first punch (sorry to those who feel "unsafe" by that comment!). Order your pre-publication copy of End of Discussion: How the Left's Outrage Industry Shuts Down Debate, Manipulates Voters, and Makes America Less Free (and Fun) today, at Amazon.

Best,
