Back in the fall of 1971, NBC-TV introduced its most successful “wheel series,” the NBC Mystery Movie. Look for our anniversary posts here.
In honor of The Rap Sheet’s first birthday, we invited more than 100 crime writers, book critics, and bloggers from all over the English-speaking world to choose the one crime/mystery/thriller novel that they thought had been “most unjustly overlooked, criminally forgotten, or underappreciated over the years.” Their choices can be found here.

Can I just say how much I love that you don't shy away from putting out these political updates on this blog? Too many people are too timid and passive which leads to a form of acceptance of this type of disgusting right-wing practice. I applaud you for keeping your outrage in the open.
These people are not Christians.
They are cowards.
As Richard Hofstadter's fine book Anti-Intellectualism in America demonstrates, this kind of clerical lynching goes as far back as the early 1800s. Electronic media has simply made it better known. Look at Father Coughlin in the Thirties.
