The Julian Assange Show: Episode 2
In the second episode of his groundbreaking series, Julian Assange is joined in house arrest by intellectual superstar Slavoj Zizek, and via satellite by divisive right wing figurehead David Horowitz.
This episode pitches left against right, as self described communist Zizek and "fiery right wing zionist" Horowitz go head to head. It's a heated discussion, and at times Assange even has to physically restrain Zizek, despite Horowitz being on another continent. The conversation tears through a range of controversial subjects, hitting on Nazis and Palestinians, Black Panthers and Israelis, and Obama, Romney and Stalin. At the end of the debate Zizek is forced to conclude "This was madness".
