By Larry Elder"When I appear on Fox, as I did to promote my latest book, "What's Race Got to Do with It," I get mostly approving e-mail. When I get one that disagrees, the writer points out — using facts, information or analogies — what, in his or her opinion, undermines my position. But when I appear on Wolf Blitzer's CNN show — oh, man! Hundreds of hostile e-mails accuse me of everything but the Lincoln assassination. Only rarely, such as when someone took exception to the book's premise — that white racism no longer poses a potent or even significant factor in America — does anyone argue intelligently, with facts or information. It's snarl, attack, name-call."
