As a Springsteen biography, Alterman delivers but doesn’t really get into the personal details. There were also parts that really seemed contradictory, and fell flat as I read it. An interesting read, but not one I’d return to.
First rate – very detailed look at right wing media bias and provides much support for the fact that clams of “liberal bias” are the right’s equivalent of screaming at the ump to get a favorable ruling later in the game.
